Main features

Easy installation

The camera comes with an integrated wireless capability (IEEE802.11b/g/n) and web server function. Therefore, driver installation is not necessary. Thanks to P2P technology (peer-to-peer), the user can view the SmartCam stream easily via a PC/smarhtphone/ client software. The router and firewall do not need to be configured. The camera can automatically speak to the router via the WLAN. You can see images picked up by the camera in the remote stall as soon as the connection is made.

STA/APmode

The SmartCam can be used both integrated into an existing wireless network (STA mode) as well as so-called HotSpot Camera (AP mode). In AP mode, the camera communicates directly with e.g. Smartphones. In this case, the smart phone serves as a monitor and therefore replaces classic radio monitors to watch animals in the trailer while driving.

802.11 b/g/n WLAN connection available

The camera was designed to work with your existing network as well as with standard 802.11 b/g/n wireless devices, allowing you to use the product wirelessly. The camera has SSD filtering, powerful 64/128 bit encryption and the latest security standard for WPA encryption in order to protect against illegal access.

3GPP mobile surveillance

The camera allows you to view images on your mobile phone as a live video stream. It supports the telecommunication standard for the 3GPP streaming format. All 3G-capable mobile devices and most 2G mobile phones that support the 3GPP standard are compatible. This means that the images can be viewed via your mobile phone's browser.

Simultaneous high-speed MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG

The camera enables the simultaneous live streaming of MPEG-4 and Motion JPEG. The camera has H.264/MPEG4 compression that compresses the video to make the transmission faster and more efficient. The H.264/MPEG4 and MPEG image can be transmitted at 30 frames per second.

Simultaneous HTTP and RTSP streaming

The camera supports the HTTP and RTSP/RTP/RTCP protocol and supplies several HTTP and RTSP streams simultaneously.

Snapshot and record function

You can take a snapshot from the images sent to your PC by the camera and then save the image in JPG or BMP format. In addition, you can also record the video and audio stream sent from the camera to your PC and save it in ASF format.

OSD function

The OSD function (on screen display) can show the system name, date and time, and user-defined info on the screen.

Authentication

You must enter your user ID and password in the authentication window. The password prevents unregistered users access to your camera. Users can select between the basic authentication method or the direct access authentication method.

Infrared night vision

The camera uses infrared LEDs. When the environment is dark, the LEDs activate automatically via a light sensor. The video switches from colour to black & white. The range is approx. 5m
