The Bosch DINION 8100i thermal camera is built for mission-critical long-range perimeter monitoring. With VGA resolution and lens options from telephoto to wide-angle, it delivers long-range detection of people and vehicles in complete darkness, smoke, or fog. IVA Pro Perimeter analytics provide high-accuracy detection while minimising false alarms. AI-based 3D autocalibration speeds up setup for quick and precise configuration. Rugged, corrosion-resistant IP66/67 and IK10 housing ensures reliable outdoor operation in demanding environments.
Video Analytics
The Bosch DINION 8100i thermal camera range features IVA Pro Buildings analytics enhanced by AI-based algorithms for reliable detection of people and vehicles, allowing you to run scenarios such as line crossing, object in area, loitering detection and more. IVA Pro Perimeter is also included to support long-range perimeter monitoring. These advanced analytics minimise false alarms caused by environmental factors such as shadows, reflections, moving foliage, or small animals. Customisable alarm rules and tracking capabilities enable rapid response and efficient forensic review of events, providing professional-grade situational awareness across challenging and mission-critical environments.
