Overview of the AXIS P3285-LVE outdoor varifocal dome camera with sound sensor
Coming Soon - Available for pre-order now
Designed for reliable, high-quality monitoring of outdoor environments, this versatile dome camera captures sharp, detailed images 24-hours a day in tough weather conditions. It supports HD 1080p resolution at up to 30 fps in all resolutions, and features a light-sensitive varifocal P-iris lens. Forensic WDR and Lightfinder 2.0 deliver excellent clarity in low light and high-contrast scenes, while OptimizedIR provides effective illumination in complete darkness.
This camera features an integrated sound sensor and comes preinstalled with AXIS Audio Analytics to detect critical sound events such as shouting or glass breaking. It's ideal for environments where audio recording may be restricted but where detecting sound events for real-time alerts remains essential. Classify screams, shouts and breaking glass, whilst adaptive audio can generate an alert if any sound exceeds the user-defined threshold.
Powered by the ARTPEC-9 chipset, the camera offers next-generation video analytics for faster object detection and more accurate event analysis. With AV1 codec compression, it delivers high-quality footage with outstanding detail and superior bitrate efficiency for reduced bandwidth costs. This camera can be mounted directly to walls and ceilings with the included mount, and runs over PoE for reduced installation costs. Remote zoom and focus simplifies adjusting the viewing angle during setup.
Video Analytics
AXIS Object Analytics (AOA) reliably detects, classifies, and counts people and vehicles, processing video on the edge for faster alerts. Powered by ARTPEC-9 with deep learning, it reduces false alarms by filtering irrelevant motion. Objects are marked with colour-coded boxes, visible in the camera and management system. Configure up to 10 virtual rules like line crossing and zone entry to boost awareness. Built-in AXIS Image Health Analytics alerts if the image is obstructed or tampered with.
This camera also supports other AXIS and third-party applications, enabling greater functionality for the camera to meet more specialist demands.
