Packing a lot of punch and providing a cost-effective high resolution indoor surveillance solution, the Axis M3086-V delivers clear 4MP resolution video at up to 30 frames per second (fps) – ideal to provide monitoring in retail or cash handling applications. This compact camera features a deep learning processing unit (DLPU) and has Axis’ highly effective Axis Object Analytics (AOA) integrated for advanced detection and classification of objects. The intuitive object analytics improve scene awareness by classifying objects (humans, vehicles), categorising vehicles (car, bus, truck, bike), and allowing users to set event triggers based on these classifications. Additional features include support for Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), Lightfinder technology and impact protection.

Camera

Featuring a 2.4 mm lens, the M3086-V offers horizontal views of 130° which enables users to view a wide scene. Ideal for areas prone to dust and small amounts of water, the camera’s robust housing is IP42-rated. The unit is also IK08-rated, allowing it to withstand up to 5 joules of impact. Additionally, support for audio devices via Portcast technology allows two-way communication and recorded audio.

Imaging

To ensure the camera captures clear footage in a range of lighting conditions, several imaging technologies are included. The unit can capture full-colour images, even in near-darkness using Axis' Lightfinder technology. Wide dynamic range (WDR) technology improves captured footage by compensating for bright backlighting and shadows in a scene to ensure individuals and objects are clearly visible throughout the image. When a moving object is nearby or approaching the camera, motion-adaptive exposure reduces motion blur to maintain video clarity.

Video analytics

As well as providing intelligent object detection, this camera also features configurable video motion detection alarms that can be set to trigger recording to the onboard MicroSD card (not included) and inform users of activity via email notifications. If a more tailored analytics solution is needed, download custom analytics for the Axis Camera Application Platform. This platform contains a library of analytics for a range of applications.

Video management

The free Axis Companion Application offers basic video management for up to 16 camera channels via PC or mobile device. This handy software also provides remote access to the camera. For larger installations, a licence can be purchased for Axis Camera Station or Milestone XProtect to provide more advanced video viewing, playback and management. Support for edge storage is also included and recordings can be written to the onboard MicroSD card (not included) - providing a helpful and easily playable backup of data if the network fails.

Installation

Designed for simple and non-invasive installation, the camera's lens position can be adjusted using the 175° pan and 80° tilt capabilities, enabling the installer to set the required view easily. Support for power and network connectivity through PoE also enables simple installation by delivering power and network over one cable. Furthermore, Zipstream compression technology uses intelligent algorithms to reduce bandwidth without compromising bitrate or video quality – saving on storage space.
