NEC’s High Sensitive Camera Captures Moving Colour Images in Darkness

NEC NC-R550 (Lens not included)

Mumbai, November 23, 2010 - NEC India, a leading network, communications and IT solutions provider, is unveiling a High Sensitive Camera (NC-R550) amongst a range of public security solutions at IFSEC India 2010 from 23 - 25 November 2010 at the Bombay Exhibition Centre (Booth B17) in Mumbai.

 

Surveillance technologies have evolved to meet the demanding security and monitoring needs of businesses and transportation hubs. NEC‘s High-Sensitivity Camera (HSC) is the world’s first 3-Chip EM-CCD1 (Electron Multiplying charge-coupled device) colour camera for surveillance, based on 30 years of achievements and experience in the broadcasting scene. Leveraging on cutting-edge digital process circuit technology, this high performance camera, with a minimum subject luminance of 0.0003lx for video, is capable of recording action with full-colour clarity in full darkness, under starlight and new moon lighting conditions.

 

Cameras with the CCD (charge-coupled device) chip are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image with few light photons. NEC has designed its HSC to serve as a night-time surveillance tool in a variety of applications, including critical high security installations like securing facilities and utility plants, as well as tracking illegal activities at sea or in seaports, allowing authorities to better monitor and detect irregularities in operations at night.

 

When combined with NEC’s CCTV and integrated surveillance systems, these cameras automatically detect intruders, illegal marine trade and the access of unregistered vessels by displaying these images on a monitor screen, enabling large-scale surveillance and protection of seaports and cargos, whether stored or in transit. NEC can also customize an optimum solution for operators by adding one-touch image playback, touch-panel controlled zoom, and various other functions.

 

NEC offers a comprehensive suite of integrated security solutions including multi-biometric identification, access gates, video surveillance and behavior pattern analysis. Having been in development for more than three decades, NEC’s fingerprint and facial recognition solutions are recognized as the world’s fastest and most accurate biometric technologies for identification.

 

The IFSEC India is a platform that brings together the leading Indian and international homeland security solution providers with the key decision makers and influencers from the Indian Government and private industry looking to source the latest homeland security innovations and technology. Mr Sunny Ho, Sales Director at NEC Asia Pacific, will be speaking on “NEC High Sensitivity Camera – Power of Seeing in Darkness” at the IFSEC, FIREX & HOMELAND SECURITY INDIA 2010: Technical Seminar, on 23 November 2010, at Hall 1, Bombay Exhibition Centre, Mumbai.

Notes:

[1] “EM-CCD” refers to the breakthrough CCD that causes impact ionization by applying a high voltage to an electron multiplying register to amplify signal charges on chip, using generated secondary electrons. The super-ultrasensitive camera contains three of those CCD panels for R, G, and B.
