1.2 Overview
Compact Panoramic Camera for Wide View Surveillance
PLANET ICA-8500/ICA-W8500 5 mega-pixel PoE/Wireless Fish-Eye IP Camera supports
H.264, MPEG-4, and JPEG compression formats and delivers excellent picture quality in up to
1920 x 1920 pixels at 15 frames per second (fps). Incorporating the professional 5
MP-resolution sensor, the ICA-8500/ICA-W8500 provides high quality images and panorama
function with quad view to enable images of monitoring and recording from four different
angles to be displayed simultaneously. It offers 180° panoramic view by wall mount installation
and 360° surround view in deployment of ceiling mount. Therefore, users do not need to install
multiple IP cameras and hence save tremendous installation and maintenance costs.
Moreover, the unique design makes it the ideal solution to surveillance applications in
boutiques, stores, restaurants, indoor public areas, etc.

Full Surveillance with 360º Surround View
Furthermore, the ICA-8500/W8500 is a fish-eye camera that allows you to monitor all angles of
a location using just one camera and thus save lots of the traditional mechanical Pan/Tilt
maintenance cost. The distorted hemispherical image of the fish-eye camera will be converted
into the conventional rectilinear projection. Without installing any software, you can watch live
view and utilize functions such as motion detection and camera tampering through the Web
interface using a web browser. Distortion correction feature of the ICA-8500/W8500 can fix the
camera video so you can use e-PTZ to zoom in, zoom out, and pan across your camera’s
video to survey a large area easily.
Exceptional Image Quality
Together with powerful image processing attributes like Wide Dynamic Range and Dimension
Noise Reduction technology, the ICA-8500/W8500 is able to filter the intense backlight
surrounding a subject and remove noises from video signal. Thus, the ICA-8500/W8500 offers
an extremely sharp and clear image quality even under any challenging lighting conditions.
Day & Night Surveillance
The ICA-8500/W8500 features an automatic, removable infrared-cut filter, which enables the
camera to provide color video when there is sufficient light, and black and white video in dark
conditions. The camera is able to maintain clear images 24 hours a day.
