The outdoor environment poses unique challenges that are not faced by video analytics systems designed for indoor solutions. Outdoor cameras must be designed from the outset to withstand changing or extreme environmental conditions. SightLogix systems are designed to be “outdoor ready,” and are in operation in the Canada Oil Sands at -58° F and in the Middle East at 158° F.
Many so-called outdoor video surveillance cameras are really indoor cameras with an add-on protective enclosure. They are susceptible to extreme temperatures, sand, dust, and humidity, which degrade the camera’s ability to accurately detect targets and shorten equipment life.
SightLogix systems are ruggedized edge devices pressurized with inert Nitrogen within a sealed, NEMA 4X-compliant enclosure that keeps grit, dust, or humidity from getting in. An auto lens defogger ensures crisp images and range even in humid conditions to withstand the harshest environmental conditions.
