In continuing its commitment to HD technology and superb picture quality for applications that require dynamic, high-resolution images and flexibility, Lamar Systems is introducing the SkyBoss ERD-HD camera system. This impressive new model extends application possibilities and features full 1920 x 1080 HD resolution. The SkyBoss ERD-HD incorporates a 1/2.8-type Exmor™ CMOS image sensor, boasting approximately 3,270,000 effective pixels for exceptional picture quality.
Highlights:
- Full 1920 x 1080/30p High Definition: SkyBoss ERD-HD camera offers full 1920 x 1080/30p high definition output.
- Digital Output (Y/Cb/Cr 4:2:2): The digital LDVS interface provides easy access for IP and Gigabit Ethernet applications. Thanks to the digital interface, the quality of the camera’s video signal is maintained. This can lead to cost savings due to the direct connection with codecs/systems without the need for any additional components.
- Temperature Readout: The value of the internal temperature can be read out via the VISCA protocol. When checking the internal temperature of equipment (i.e., enclosure), it is possible to use this data to turn a fan or heater on/off inside the equipment as needed.
- Color Enhancement: Ideally suited for low vision applications with new color enhancement options.
- Auto Wide-D Mode: The new SkyBoss ERD-HD camera system monitors the luminance differences within an inage in high contrast envirnments and automatically switches on and off the Wide-D feature according to the contrasted lighting environment. In addition, it is possible to select three levels of luminance differences (low/mid/high).
- Additional Wide-D Modes: In addition to the Auto Wide-D mode, the new SkyBoss ERD-HD camera system features additional modes, including Indoor, Outdoor, One-push WB, ATW, Manual, Sodium Vapor Lamp.
