What are the classifications of spherical cameras?

Abstract: The spherical camera consists of an integrated camera, a spherical pan-tilt and a decoder. Installation methods include ceiling, hoisting and wall hanging. There are many kinds of spherical cameras, which can be divided into indoor intelligent spherical cameras and outdoor intelligent spherical cameras according to the use environment. Outdoor intelligent spherical camera includes waterproof device and constant temperature device, mostly double-layer heating and fan. So what's the difference between a spherical camera and a hemispherical or gun camera? Let's compare it from the aspects of appearance, lens and application place. Classification of spherical cameras

1, based on the pan/tilt speed: including the high-speed ball (0-360/s); Medium speed ball (0-60/ s) and low speed ball (0-30/ s).

2. According to the use environment, there are indoor intelligent spherical cameras and outdoor intelligent spherical cameras. Outdoor intelligent spherical camera includes waterproof device and constant temperature device, mostly double-layer heating and fan.

3. According to the installation method: hoisting (hanging from the roof and ceiling through brackets); Side mounting (fixed on the wall or column through a bracket); Embedded (directly in the ceiling, no bracket).

4. According to the transmission mode of video signal, it is divided into analog spherical camera and network spherical camera.

What's the difference between a spherical camera, a hemispherical camera and a gun camera?

1, different shapes

The shape of the hemispherical camera is hemispherical, and the installation method is ceiling installation. It has its own exquisite protective cover and mounting bracket, and the bolt machine needs another protective cover.

The appearance of gun camera is similar to a long square or a long cylinder, and the installation method is wall-mounted with a bracket.

The spherical camera consists of an integrated camera, a spherical pan-tilt and a decoder. Installation methods include ceiling, hoisting and wall hanging.

2, the lens is different

The hemispherical camera comes with a zoom lens, so the zoom range is generally small and the lens is not easy to replace.

The zoom range of gun camera depends on the selected lens, which can be several times to dozens of times, and the lens replacement is relatively easy.

The spherical camera can automatically focus, manually zoom, zoom in and out and rotate 360 degrees to monitor the area to be monitored. Generally, the lens has optical zoom of 10, 22, 23 and 35 times, and the irradiation distance is generally 50- 100 meters.

3. Different application occasions

Hemispherical cameras are mostly used in indoor small-scale monitoring occasions: semi-public areas with no lights or dim lights, hotel corridors, government office buildings, hospitals, residential quarters, indoor halls and other places.

Gun cameras are generally installed in tunnels, factories or parking lots. Mainly used in underground warehouses, warehouses, monitoring urban roads, outdoor environment of residential quarters, etc. When monitoring only the position or motion of the scene, you can choose a gun camera.

Spherical cameras are generally used in outdoor or indoor situations with large area and wide range.
