VIVOTEK

Overview

VIVOTEK FE8171V is the first fisheye fixed dome network camera from VIVOTEK, featuring detailed

3.1MP-resolution sensor with superb image quality. Equipped with a fisheye lens for 180° panoramic

view (wall mount) or 360° surround view (ceiling/oor/table mount) without blind spots, this camera is able to provide an 8X wider eld of view than a standard VGA camera, signicantly reducing the need

for multiple camera installations. It is extremely suitable for monitoring open areas such as airports,

shopping malls, parking lots, retail stores, ofces, and many more.

The FE8171V offers various display layouts, including original surround view, panoramic views, and regional views for various mounting applications. With the latest cutting-edge image processing,

hemispherical images captured from the sheye camera can be converted into conventional rectilinear

projection for viewing and analysis. In addition, in the panoramic and regional viewing modes, users can utilize the ultra-smooth ePTZ function to easily zoom in and focus on a region of interest (ROI).

As with all VIVOTEK true day/night cameras, the FE8171V features a removable IR-cut lter, maintaining

clear images 24 hours a day. Its IP66-rated housing is designed to help the camera body withstand rain and dust and ensures operation under a multitude of harsh weather conditions. Additionally, the vandalproof IK10-rated housing effectively provides robust protection from vandalism. Together with 802.3af compliant PoE, microSD/SDHC/SDXC card slot for on-board storage, EN50155 mobile surveillance, and iPad iViewer applications, the FE8171V is indisputably the top choice for constructing a robust surveillance system with the greatest coverage possible.
