MEGApix® Flex™ 16MP user-configurable multi-sensor vandal dome IP camera with 2.8mm, 4.0mm, 6.0mm and 8.0mm fixed lens options

Megapixel resolution in multi-sensor IP cameras

DW’s technology delivers crystal clear images in any resolution. Higher resolution offers forensic details with zooming into the camera’s field of view.

Flex camera typical installations

Flex cameras can be personalized to match any application and any field of view (FoV) from a 180° panoramic view installation to a full 360° hemispheric FoV, all with a single camera and max flexibility.

Flexible sensor positioning with magnets

Users can easily place each of the four sensors independently in any configuration around the camera's magnetic base. Use one installation to monitor a hallway or to produce a 270° view at building corners and large rooms.

Easy 3-axis gimbal tilt and rotation

Each sensor has a 3-axis gimbal to fine-tune the Field of View (FoV) configuration, with endless 360° rotation and up to 60° tilting per sensor.
