WITH effortless, analogue-like 4-stage set up and intuitive operation, the WJ-NV200 is designed for ease of use. The built-in decoder eliminates the need for a PC; reducing the total cost of ownership and removing time and complication from operation.
The WJ-NV200 also has a strong capability to support security professionals with suspect identification as it supports HDMI at Full-HD image resolution with around four times the picture clarity of standard definition images.
Compatible with Panasonic’s latest i-Pro SmartHD cameras,the WJ-NV200 also makes it possible to apply real time face matching technology which optimises the detection of suspects. Face matching essentially becomes like another set of eyes monitoring cameras, freeing up more security personnel time to perform other tasks and helping create a more efficient security operation.
In line with Panasonic’s Eco Ideas and environmental innovation, the SmartHD cameras feature a new ‘MOS’ sensor which provides low power consumption, thus the the SmartHD solution provides a intelligent answer to further reduce cost, improve environmental performance whilst maximising security. Simply put, WJ-NV200 is a smarter security solution.
According to Pacific Communications’ Kieron McDonough, recordings are at 1.3MP and in real time at 30ips for all 16 Panasonic SmartHD cameras.
“Compared to CIF quality, 1.3MP performance has 12x greater number of pixels,” McDonough explains. “Another strong feature of the NV200 is the Easy Start installation wizard which can be as quick as 90 seconds making life very easy for installers.
“Multi-recorder, Multi-site systems can be facilitated using optional WV-ASM100 i-PRO management software. This WV-ASM100 software offers full functionality and supports maps.”
