Part of Bosch’s FLEXIDOME 5100i range, this outdoor camera is available in two variants: delivering 2MP or 8MP resolution at up to 60fps, or 5MP at up to 30fps, allowing users to choose the resolution that suits their requirements. This intelligent unit includes Bosch Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) Buildings pack out of the box, using deep learning-based detection to accurately identify and track both humans and vehicles. Able to function in both busy and sterile areas, with a selection of alarm triggers available. This technology can reliably recognise genuine triggers, helping to minimise instances of false alerts. Users can rest assured that their data is kept safe with built-in cybersecurity features such as three-level password protection, a Trusted Platform Module (TPM), built-in Secure Element and Public Key Infrastructure support, protecting the camera from data breaches and cyber attacks that could compromise the system.
Models available
- 2MP (1080p HD) resolution with 31° - 105° view (NDE-5702-A)
- 5MP resolution with 29° – 96° view (NDE-5703-A)
- 8MP (4K UHD) resolution with 31° – 105° view (NDE-5704-A)
Camera
Finding the optimum viewing angle during installation is straightforward with this camera’s varifocal lens. Offering a choice of 31° - 105° (2MP & 8MP model) or 29° – 96° (5MP model), it is easy to select the ideal model and viewing angle for a specific application. Electronic Image Stabilisation (EIS) reduces the effects of excess movement such as wind or vehicle motion on the footage, minimising blurring that could obscure important video. This unit can still capture full-colour video in light levels as low as 0.021 (2MP), 0.060 (5MP) or 0.046 (8MP) using Starlight technology, enabling accurate identification of objects, even in an environment subject to insufficient light levels.
Imaging
A variety of imaging technologies are included with this camera to enhance video capture in a range of challenging conditions. To help make every detail clear in high-contrast areas, High Dynamic Range (HDR) is available to balance lighting across the scene, making it easier to identify key objects and activity. If the camera is mounted at a right angle or upside down, Automatic Image Rotation corrects the orientation in increments of 90°, which is especially helpful when monitoring narrow areas, as the camera is then able to capture only what is necessary without loss of resolution. Furthermore, multiple configurable scene modes are available with a single click, fully optimising camera settings to suit specific conditions.
Video analytics
Designed for use in and around buildings, the IVA Pro Buildings pack not only offers application-specific deep-learning object detection but is also able to gather important metadata that can be used to filter object triggers or retrieve specific data. Filters based on object colour, size and direction can be applied to create specific detection rules, so that it is easier to find the desired object, without picking up on unwanted triggers.
Video management
Remote access and basic management options are available with the Bosch Viewer application, ideal for smaller Bosch security systems of up to 16 cameras, this easy-to-use application allows users to monitor live video streams or play footage recorded to the onboard SD card (card not included). Expansion licences are also available so the application can grow as your installation does. If an existing VMS solution is already in use, or more advanced management is required, this camera can connect to Milestone XProtect.
Installation
Designed with easy installation in mind, the Bosch FLEXIDOME 5100i receives power and network connection via a single cable with Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) support – reducing installation time and the cost of equipment for a more cost-effective integration process. Another handy feature is Bosch’s universal mounting accessories, with a selection of bracketry that fits most models, it’s simple to get the camera up and running with the correct accessories. Equipped for use outdoors, the FLEXIDOME 5100i’s casing is IP66 and Ik10-rated, allowing it to withstand harsh weather conditions and sudden impacts. Moreover, initial configuration, firmware updates and health monitoring can all be conducted remotely using the Bosch Remote Portal.
