Bosch MIC-7230-PW4 2MP Outdoor PTZ IP Security Camera with 30x Optical Zoom and Wiper

The MIC IP dynamic 7000 HD camera has an advanced PTZ platform that was designed using Bosch’s domain expertise in material engineering, mechanical design, intelligent imaging, and video streaming. The camera complies to some of the toughest industry standards such as IP68, NEMA 6P, and IK10 for extreme mechanical strength and durability. The camera is designed using the latest technology in intelligent imaging and video streaming. Thanks to the intelligent coding and Content-Based Imaging Technology (CBIT), the HD module delivers highresolution video even under challenging light conditions at very low bit rates.

The camera is designed to last in surveillance applications that are beyond the mechanical capabilities of normal PTZ domes or conventional positioning systems. The complete metal body has been engineered to withstand high-impact or continuous low-frequency vibration. The camera models comply to IK10 rating for impact resistance and to the IEC 60068 standards applicable to vibration and shock. With a temperature range of -40 °C to +60 °C (-40 °F to +140 °F), the camera is designed specifically for use in extreme environments around the world. The camera benefits from Bosch Automotive domain knowledge in material engineering and coatings. As a result, the superior metallurgy and the finish of the camera provide unprecedented protection against corrosion. The camera has been tested for 2000 hours of salt spray per the ASTM B117 standard.

Regardless of the weather, the MIC camera is able to capture the highest possible quality image all year long, thanks to its integrated, long-life silicone wiper.

In addition, the camera incorporates an internal longlife blower that directs warm air towards the inside of the front window of the camera, providing an effective window-defrosting function.

Image control and quality are integral aspects of any PTZ camera, and the camera delivers outstanding clarity and image detail.

The camera has a professional-grade imaging platform capable of delivering 1080p25/30 HD resolution in environments with ambient light extremes. The camera also has a 30x optical zoom lens (12x digital zoom) and flexible mounting options (upright, inverted, or canted) to achieve the perfect field of view.

Day/night capabilities and outstanding sensitivity make the camera an exceptional performer in all lighting conditions. In low light, the camera automatically switches from color to monochrome by removing the IR filter to boost sensitivity, while maintaining superior image quality. For operation in the darkest conditions, automatic control of shutter speeds increases sensitivity by more than 50 times.

Dynamic models have a full 1080p25/30 HD imaging platform with multiple exposures capable of delivering high dynamic range (HDR) video in scenes with simultaneous bright and dark areas. When operated in HDR mode, the camera makes multiple, simultaneous exposures of the same scene to capture details in both bright and dark parts of the scene.

Content Based Imaging Technology (CBIT) is used to radically improve image quality in all lighting conditions and to identify areas for enhanced processing. The camera examines the scene using Intelligent Video Analytics and provides feedback to retune the image processing. This provides better detail in the areas that matter and better all-round performance. With IVA, the Intelligent Auto Exposure technology, for example, allows you to view moving objects in bright and dark areas of a scene.

Subjected and certified to rigorous dust and immersion tests (IP68, Type 6P) and impact test (IK10), MIC Series cameras are perfectly suited for installation in even the most unforgiving environments. The cameras’ aluminum housing receives a corrosion protection surface treatment, along with robust, powder coat paint. Reliable O-ring seals completely protect the internal components from the external environment, meaning that there is no need to pressurize the camera. To guarantee the seal, the factory submerges each MIC camera to ensure seal integrity before shipping.
