Bosch DINION 7100i IR 8MP Outdoor Network Bullet Camera with 4.4-10mm Lens

The latest sensor technology combined with the sophisticated image processing and noise suppression results in an exceptional sensitivity in color and low-light performance, even with a minimum of ambient light.

HDR (High Dynamic Range) support allows the camera to capture more details in the highlights and in the shadows, even in the same scene, allowing you to easily distinguish objects and features, for example, faces with bright backlight.

The camera is designed with H.264 and H.265/HEVC encoding to deliver high-resolution video with very low latency. Due to its efficiency, the H.265 codec has become the new compression standard of choice for IP video surveillance systems.

The camera is pre-installed with the IVA Pro Building and the IVA Pro Perimeter software, highly reliable deep-learning-based detection and tracking of people and vehicles to scenes ranging from low-capacity zones to crowded and congested. The system reliably detects, tracks, and classifies objects and is resistant to false triggers caused by challenging environments, such as rain, wind (moving trees), snow, hail, and water reflections as well as shadows and bugs.

A smart set of alarm and counter rules allows to alert you when predefined alarms are triggered, so you can search efficiently though recordings. Other options can be licensed to optimize camera analytics for specific enterprise use-cases with the IVA Pro Traffic.

The camera offers integrated advanced intelligent infrared (IR) illumination with an IR range that covers distances up to 197'. The combination of multiple IR beam angles linked to the zoom position of the lens ensure uniform illumination of the full scene without hot spots or dark corners in any field of view. Smart IR ensures a balanced image without overexposure on objects closer to the camera. Optional invisible IR (940nm) or white light modules are available separately.

The camera utilizes DORI (Detect, Observe, Recognize, Identify), a standard system (EN-62676-4) for defining the ability of a person viewing the video to distinguish persons or objects within a covered area.

Multiple configurable modes are provided with the best settings for a variety of applications. In one click, you can fully optimize image settings to suit the current conditions. Different scene modes can be selected for different situations such as sodium lighting, fast moving objects, or dark environments.

This camera is suitable for indoor and outdoor usage and resists rain, dust, and tampering with reliable operation across a wide temperature range or -58 to +140°F. The robust design of the camera is rated to IP66 / IP67 and IK10 standards, safeguarding the camera against rain and dust while also offering protection against vandalism and tampering.

The camera offers auto-calibration by transforming 2D pixels into 3D real-world measures, such as size, speed, and geolocation of objects for tracking use cases. AI technology allows the camera to detect and analyze persons and vehicles in the scene to determine calibration parameters. Calibration can be performed with a single click, reducing the calibration effort to ensure accuracy while keeping costs to a minimum.

The camera incorporates an electronic image stabilization (EIS) and algorithm that allows the camera to sense continuous vibration. If it detects vibration, the device dynamically corrects the shaky video in both vertical and horizontal axis, and the EIS crop factor is adjustable. This helps the camera deliver exceptional image clarity by allowing you to optimize the balance between field of view and the maximum vibration amplitude.

Special security settings ensure the highest level of security for device access and data transport. On initial setup, the camera is only accessible over secure channels and enforces a password. Web browser and viewing client access can be protected using HTTPS or other secure protocols that support state-of-the-art TLS 1.2 with updated cipher suites, including AES encryption with 256-bit keys. No software can be installed in the camera, and only authenticated firmware can be uploaded.

Three-level password protection with security recommendations allows users to customize device access. Network and device access can be protected using 802.1x network authentication with EAP/TLS.

Advanced edge recording provides a reliable storage solution with the following functions:

Dual microSD cards can be set up as either:

• Mirrored, for redundant storage
• Failover, for extended service intervals
• Extended, for maximum retention time

Industrial microSD card support allows for extreme lifetime

Health monitoring of industrial microSD cards provide early service indications

Using the Bosch Security Cloud, you can configure, troubleshoot, and update supported devices using the browser-based interface or standard tools. With one click on Remote Portal, you can activate additional value-added services, such as Alarm Management in Cloud VMS, or VideoView+. VideoView+ provides an easy-to-use, cost-effective solution to remotely connect to your device from anywhere at any time.

As the camera is equipped with a USB-C port for a wireless installation dongle (sold separately: NCAWLAN-EU, NCA-WLAN-NA), the installer can easily perform the initial configuration wirelessly. Using a mobile device with the Bosch Project Assistant app, you can do initial setup and lens zoom/focus to find the right scene. Simply connect the optional wireless installation dongle and go to the Bosch Project Assistant app, available for iOS, Windows, or Android.
