High-Definition Integrated Robotic PTZ Camera

With the ClearVIEW HD-18 integrated robotic PTZ camera, Vaddio

continues to redefine image control.

The camera is built around a

1.3 megapixel, 1/3” CCD with an 18x optical zoom lens, making it

the ideal choice for a wide range of high definition video

applications.

In addition to the component HD output (720p, 1080i

or 1080p), the camera comes with a simultaneous composite SD

output (NTSC or PAL).

Because the camera is built around a CCD image sensor, the HD-

18 is excellent in low-light situations, with a 1.8 lux rating.

In

addition, the video signal to noise ratio output of the camera is

greater than 50dB, delivering clean, clear video.

The 7-element wide dynamic zoom lens allows ClearVIEW HD-18

to capture a wide angle of view (55.2°) enough to view everyone at

a conference room table, as well as capture an individual from a

long distance (3.2°).

The zoom range provides greater flexibility

for a wide variety of applications.

Pan range is +170 to -170 degrees, and Tilt range is -30 to +90

degrees.

The camera is also invertible for ceiling-mount

applications.

A variety of accessories are available, allowing the

camera to be installed in a variety of projects.

The ClearVIEW HD-18 is and exceptional camera for a wide range of high definition shooting applications,

such as houses of worship, corporate boardrooms, live event production and distance-learning.
