Axis Communications Q1921 Thermal Network Camera (Indoor)
Key Features
  • Thermal Imaging Technology
  • Detection in Complete Darkness
  • Uncooled Micro Bolometer Imager
  • Supports Multiple H.264 / Motion JPEG
The Axis Communications Q1921 Thermal Network Camera (Indoor), with thermal imaging technology, converts thermal radiation to images. Without needing any visible light, it allows you to detect objects, people, and incidents even in complete darkness including difficult conditions such as smoke, haze, dust, and light fog.

With an uncooled micro bolometer image sensor, 19mm lens, and a resolution of 384 x 288, the thermal camera displays bright and intense color images, created digitally to help distinguish details in the scene. The images show temperature variations in the scene. The camera supports multiple H.264 streams and motion JPEG at 30 frames-per-second and also allows you to scale up the images up to 768 x 576 as well as to standard VGA resolutions.

The thermal network camera has a built-in support for pan/tilt heads using the Pelco-D protocol. It includes image setting features such as privacy masking, exposure control, mirroring of images, text and image overlay, and brightness. With two-way half-duplex support, the camera enables you to communicate with the intruders from the operator's base station. The camera supports an open API (Application Programming Interface) for software integration, including the ONVIF specification and the VAPIX and AXIS Camera Application Platform from Axis Communications.

Password usage restricts access to unauthorized persons and IP filtering restricts access to 1 or more user groups. User groups can be created with an IP address range being defined for each group. Intelligent video capabilities include video motion detection, audio detection, and active tampering alarm. The built-in HD/SD memory card slot can store up to 1 month of recordings. Power is supplied to the camera through PoE (Power over Ethernet); hence the camera gets power from the network itself without any extra wiring for auxiliary power outlets.

The thermal camera can be ideally used for applications that require 24 hours surveillance such as retail stores, office buildings, prisons, and warehouses.

Thermal Imaging Technology
Detects and converts thermal radiation into images allowing you to detect objects, people, and incidents even in complete darkness as well as in difficult conditions such as smoke, haze, dust, and light fog. It delivers bright images in intense colors created digitally, which help distinguish details in the scene. The images show temperature variations in the scene. Each color denotes a different temperature for e.g. white and red are usually used for higher temperatures whereas green, blue, and violet are used for colder ones.
Image Sensor and Resolution
With an uncooled micro bolometer image sensor and a resolution of 160 x 128, the camera delivers clear images. Scale up the images up to 720 x 576 (D1) as well as to standard VGA resolutions.
Lens
Includes varifocal lens of 13mm at f/1.25 and offers a horizontal viewing angle of 17°.
Formats
Supports multiple H.264 streams (MPEG-4 Part 10/AVC), enabling less bandwidth and storage utilization. It also supports multiple, individually configurable video streams in H.264 and Motion JPEG and supports up to 5 simultaneous streams.
Pan/Tilt Control
Built-in support for pan/tilt heads using the Pelco-D protocol.
Two-way Half Duplex
Allows communication with visitors or potential intruders from the operator's base station with a built-in microphone.
API (Application Program Interface)
Supports an open API for software integration, including the ONVIF specification and the VAPIX and AXIS Camera Application Platform from Axis Communications.
Image Settings
Includes compression, brightness, exposure control, rotation, mirroring of images, text and image overlay, privacy mask, and palette.
Brightness and Contrast
Adjustable in the range of 0-100 and the higher value displays a brighter image. Contrast can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the value.
Exposure Control and Gain
Can be used to adapt to the amount of thermal radiation. Gain control can be used to adjust the signal strength to maintain a constant brightness level.
Privacy Masking
Restricts you to view some parts of the monitoring area for security reasons; up to 3 privacy masks can be used.
Text and Image Overlay
It is a static image that is superimposed on a video image and can be used to provide extra information or for masking part of a video image.
Palette
Use the palette settings for coloring the image where the colors in the images denote temperature differences which can be used to improve the visibility of fine details.
Video Motion Detection
Compares the current frame with a pre-determined standard frame to accurately trigger an alarm if motion is detected within the camera's field-of-view.
Active Tampering Alarm
Triggers an alarm whenever the camera is repositioned and when the lens is covered, sprayed, or defocused.
Alarm Events and Video Buffer
The pre-/post-alarm images can either be sent to an FTP or HTTP server for uploading or to a specified email address. The pre-/post-alarm images are stored in a 32 MB video buffer.
Password Protection
Password usage restricts access to unauthorized persons.
IP Filtering
IP filtering restricts access to one or more user groups. User groups can be created with an IP address range being defined for each group.
HTTPS Encryption
HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) encryption scrambles the image data for added security.
IEEE 802.1X Network Access Control
IEEE standard for port-based Network Admission Control and offers authentication to the camera attached to a network port.
Digest Authentication
Uses a system where the network server authenticates a user request through a domain controller and then grants access to authorized users only.
User Access Log
Maintains a log of all the users that were granted access to the camera image data on the network.
Storage
Built-in HD/SD memory card slot for storing up to 1 month of recordings.
PoE (Power over Ethernet)
Power over Ethernet IEEE 802.3af Class 3 allows the camera to receive power from the network itself without any extra wiring.
Network
In addition to IPv4, the camera also supports IPv6.
Supported Browsers
Can be used with most standard web browsers such as Internet Explorer with Windows, Safari with Macintosh, and Firefox with other OS.
Detection Range
At least 415 yards (380m) for humans (1.8 x 0.5 m TA lens)
At least 950 yards (870m) for vehicles (2.3 x 2.3 m TA lens)
