Technology Leader Of Network Cameras In a short time MOBOTIX has gained the second place in Europe and the fourth place worldwide in terms of market share MOBOTIX has been producing megapixel cameras exclusively for years and in this area ranks as the global market leader in high resolution video systems with a market share of over 60 Why High Resolution Systems The higher the resolution the more accurate the detail in the image With the old analog technology a live image has no more than 0 4 megapixels and a recorded image gener ally 0 1 megapixels CIF Yet one MOBOTIX camera with 3 1 megapixels records around 30 times more detail This means that greater image areas including 360 panoramas are possible while still reducing the number of cameras and thereby also the costs For example four lanes of a gas station may be recorded with a single MOBOTIX camera instead of the four standard cameras normally necessary for such a task Disadvantages Of The Old Centralized Solution Usually cameras only supply images while processing and recording take place later ona central PC using video management software This traditional centralized structure has many limitations since it requires high network bandwidth and the PC processing power is insufficient when using several cameras An HDTV MPEG 4 film already puts considerable strain on a PC how can it be expected to process dozens of high resolution live cameras Traditional c
