Bosch MIC-9502-Z30WVF9 8MP MIC Thermal Starlight PTZ

Advanced thermal PTZ camera from Bosch's MIC series

The camera is packed with analysis and is approved in IP68, which means it can handle very harsh weather conditions. The thermal sensor allows the camera to detect people from a very long distance.

Advanced Person and Vehicle Detection

The camera has a smart technology called "IVA Pro " that, with AI, makes it possible to detect and follow people and vehicles

• Precise Registration : The camera can recognize and follow both people and vehicles. That is, it can identify when someone enters an area or if a car drives by.
  
• Fewer False Alarms : The camera can recognize patterns with AI and thus avoid false alarms from e.g. rain, moving trees and bushes, snow or shadows. Due to the AI analysis, it reduces false alarms a lot.
  
• Effective Monitoring : The camera can detect a movement and automatically distinguish between different objects. This means it can keep track of where people and cars are moving and notify you
• Smart Alarm System : The camera can be programmed to trigger alarms according to certain rules. It can, for example, notify if a person enters a restricted area or if a car parks in a place where it is not permitted. This makes it easier to keep an eye on important areas without having to constantly look at the screen.

Night vision with Starlight Technology

The camera uses Starlight technology to take clear and detailed images, even when it is very dark. Instead of traditional infrared (IR) night vision, which typically produces black and white images in the dark, Starlight technology can deliver color images in low light where a normal camera would switch to black and white.

Advantages of Starlight Technology in the Dark

• Color images in Low Light : Starlight technology needs very little light to create a color image. So where a traditional camera goes to black and white, a camera with Starlight keeps the color image much longer.
• High Sensitivity : The technology is sensitive to light, making it possible to see details that other cameras would lose in the dark.
• Clear Images without Glare : Even in challenging lighting conditions, such as when there are strong lights and deep shadows in the same scene, Starlight technology ensures clear images without glare or distortion.

The difference between Starlight and Starlight X is the light sensitivity. The Starlight technology can work in low light down to 0.0008 lux, where Starlight X can work down to 0.0003 lux, which means that even if it is almost completely dark, it can still deliver a really good image.

Data Protection and Security

• Multiple Layers of Security : The camera has multiple levels of protection that work together to ensure that the data and the camera itself are safe from attacks and unauthorized access.
  
• Access protection : There are three levels of access protection, which means that only authorized people can change settings or view the recordings. It's like having several locks on a door - only the right keys can open them.
  
• Encrypted Data Transport : When data is sent from the camera to a computer or server, it is encrypted. This means that the information has been converted into a secret code that can only be read by those who have the right encryption key. This protects the data from being intercepted by hackers.
  
• Advanced Certificate Management : The camera uses digital certificates to confirm that it is safe to communicate with other devices. Think of certificates as digital ID cards that ensure the camera only talks to trusted devices and servers.
• Protection from Attacks : The camera has built-in measures to protect it from malicious attacks. This ensures that hackers cannot gain control of the camera or steal the data.

Local storage

The camera supports one SD card for local storage.

SDXC card: Supports up to 2 TB.

Both thermal and normal image

The camera has a thermal image sensor with VGA resolution (640x480) and a visible image sensor with 2MP resolution. It is designed to be capable of both visible and thermal monitoring.
The lenses can work together, so if the thermal detects an object, it can show it on the regular imager, which has 30x optical zoom.

Resistant camera

The camera can withstand extreme weather conditions, dust and vibrations

• IP68 and IK10 certification: The camera is IP68-rated. This means that it is completely dustproof and can withstand immersion in water for a long time. It is also IK10 rated, which means it is resistant to hard knocks and shocks, making it suitable for harsh environments.
• Can withstand large temperature fluctuations: The camera can operate in extreme temperature conditions from -40°C to +65°C, and it has a built-in defroster that automatically heats the lens to prevent ice and fogging.
• Optical Image Stabilization: The camera has built-in optical image stabilization that makes it possible to deliver stable and clear images, even if it is subject to vibrations or shakes. This is a huge advantage for outdoor installations in environments with strong winds or close to motorways with a lot of traffic.

Supported licenses

Licenses that can be added to the camera. Licenses can basically be activated at the same time.

• IVA Pro Buildings License: This license enables advanced video analysis features specifically designed for monitoring buildings. It includes functions such as intrusion detection, tracking of people and vehicles, and detection of unauthorized access.
• IVA Pro Perimeter License: This license is intended for perimeter surveillance and protects borders by identifying and tracking people or vehicles crossing defined lines or entering recorded areas.
• IVA Pro Traffic License: This license extends the camera's video analysis to traffic monitoring. It can be used to monitor road traffic, detect events such as queues or accidents, and analyze traffic patterns.
• Camera Trainer License : The camera has a smart feature called "Camera Trainer". This function allows you to teach the camera to recognize specific things or objects that you choose. It can be anything from cars and people to certain objects. The camera can then detect these objects both when they are moving and when they are standing still. This means that the camera becomes more flexible and efficient, because it can focus on the things that are most important to you.
• MVS-FCOM-PRCL License : Adds support for various serial protocols such as Bosch OSRD, Pelco P/D, Forward Vision and Cohu. This allows the camera to integrate with older control systems.

Night vision

The camera does not have built-in night vision, but has the option of adding external IR light intended for the camera
MIC-ILW-400 is an external light source that supplies the camera with both IR and white light

(PTZ) Can be controlled directly from the mobile phone or computer

The camera is PTZ from Bosch, which means you can control the camera directly from your mobile or PC
With the PTZ functionality (Pan, Tilt, Zoom) you can control the camera up and down, zoom in and out, and move it from side to side.

• Remote control via Mobile and Computer: You can control the camera directly from your mobile or computer, regardless of where you are. That way, you can keep an eye on and zoom in on specific areas or objects.
• Detailed image: With the built-in 12x optical zoom that the camera comes with, you can zoom in at great distances and get detailed images of objects far away with good details.
• Automatic Movement Patterns: In addition to manual control, you can program the camera to follow specific routes or monitor specific areas automatically. It is particularly useful in larger surveillance areas where the camera can cover several important positions at once.

Built-in wiper

The camera has a built-in wiper that can be activated manually or via PC or phone to clean the lens during rain or bad weather.

A Bosch surveillance camera is packed with intelligent analysis

The camera is equipped with 16 different types of VCA (Video Content Analysis)

1. Object in field (object appears in an area)
2. Crossing line (an object crosses a line)
3. Loitering (stay in area)
4. Condition change
5. Following router (object moves outside the specified route)
6. Tampering (attempted manipulation)
7. Removed object (object is removed from a specified position)
8. Idle object (an object is left behind)
9. Entering field (object moves into an area)
10. Leaving field (object leaving area)
11. Similarity search (objects appear similar)
12. Crowd detection (objects gather in groups)
13. Counter (counts how many objects cross a line)
14. Occupancy (Queue Counter)
15. Traffic incidents (Traffic incidents)
16. Traffic wrong way (oncoming traffic)

All these analyzes are available in all Bosch surveillance cameras and help make Bosch one of the best and most widely used European surveillance cameras. You can see more about the options with "Forensic Search" here.

Stand-alone, closed Bosch system or part of 3rd party systems, the camera can do it all.

Independent device with SD card - so you can download all your recordings directly on the Bosch Security APP, completely free of charge and without taking the SD card out of the camera and don't worry if the SD card wears out or breaks, the camera will also keep an eye with it. This solution works well and just as easily as with a hard disk recorder.

Bosch NVR - If the camera is to be used in a larger integrated solution, it can also be connected to a hard disk recorder from Bosch, DIVAR, or via ONVIF a completely 3rd manufacturer

If you use a VMS platform such as Milestone, Genetec or a whole 3. then you can also add the camera via either Private protocol or ONVIF. If you want to take full advantage of META data from the camera, you must check the list of supported cameras on your VMS platform.
