HD IP Camera
HD IP camera ref design
With the latest offering of the HD IP Camera Reference Design by eInfochips, we suddenly thought to ourselves… “What on earth is an ‘HD’ IP camera“?
We know that HDTV is the latest in home entertainment technology delivering television pictures at up to 5 times higher resolution than standard definition (SD) television. However, with the introduction of SVGA resolution (800×600) in 1989 computer monitors have been able to display resolutions equivalent to HDTV for 2 decades on our computer screens, so aren’t all IP cameras HDTV cameras?
Well, no.
Even IP cameras which reach into the high megapixel resolutions cannot be classed as true HDTV cameras. Of course, they produce amazingly detailed high resolution images but to be classified as an HDTV IP camera it must conform to the HDTV standards laid down by the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE). This means that the output from the camera must conform to standardized resolutions and frame rates.
eInfochips’ has come up with small-form-factor and low BOM IP camera reference design with multi-stream output, embedded HD analytics, image stabilization, low latency and low power at a very competitive price point, moreover eInfochips being a service company gives customization services to tailor make the products precisely to customers requirement.
