Bosch NBE-5703-AL 5M Starlight Mini bullet

Small discreet mini bullet camera from Bosch Security.

A camera with advanced person and vehicle detection that sees well in low light.

Advanced person and vehicle detection.

The camera has a smart technology called "IVA-pro " that allows it to detect and follow people and vehicles through the use of AI.

• Precise detection : The camera can recognize and track both people and vehicles. This means it can identify when someone enters an area or if a car drives past.
  
• Fewer false alarms : Using AI, the camera can recognize patterns and thus avoid false alarms from, for example, rain, snow, moving trees and bushes, or shadows. The intelligent analysis therefore reduces the number of false alarms.
  
• Effective surveillance : The camera can detect motion 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 specified rules. For example, it can notify you if a person enters a restricted area or if a car parks in a place where it is not allowed. This makes it easier to monitor important areas without constantly looking 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.

Unlike 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. Only when it gets completely dark does the camera turn on the IR light, turning the image black-and-white.

Advantages of Starlight technology in the dark:

• Color images in low light : Starlight technology requires very little light to create a color image. So where a traditional camera goes black and white, a camera with Starlight maintains the color image for much longer.
• High sensitivity : The technology is light-sensitive, allowing it to see details that other cameras would lose in the dark.
• Clear images without glare: Even in challenging lighting conditions, such as bright 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. Starlight technology can work in low light down to 0.0008 lux, where Starlight X can work all the way down to 0.0003 lux, meaning that even in almost complete darkness, 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 data and the camera itself are safe from attack and unauthorized access.
• Access Protection : There are three levels of access protection that ensure that only authorized people can change settings or view recordings. It's like having multiple locks on a door that only the right keys can unlock.
• Encrypted data transport : When data is transferred from the camera to a computer or server, the transfer is encrypted. This means that the information is converted into a secret code that can only be read by those who have the correct encryption key. This protects the data from being intercepted by hackers.
• Advanced Certificate Management : The camera uses digital certificates to verify that it is secure to communicate with other devices. Think of certificates as digital ID cards that ensure the camera only talks to trusted devices and servers.
• Protection against attacks : The camera has built-in security measures that protect it from malicious attacks. This ensures that hackers cannot gain control of the camera or steal data.

Local storage.

The camera supports one micro SD card for local storage.

• Micro SDHC card: Supports up to 32 GB.
• Micro SDXC card: Supports up to 2TB.

Motorized zoom and focus for setup.

The camera is equipped with motorized zoom and focus, making it easy to adjust the viewing angle and sharpness during installation.

• Remote Adjustment : When the camera is first installed, you can adjust the zoom and focus from a computer. This makes it easier to find the perfect viewing angle without having to manually adjust the camera.
• Precise adjustment : You can fine-tune the image to ensure it is sharp and covers the desired area.
• One-time adjustment : After the initial setup is complete, there is no need to adjust the zoom and focus regularly. The camera remains in the set position and usually does not need further adjustments unless the surveillance needs change.

Supported special licenses that can be activated.

The following licenses can be added to the camera and can generally be activated simultaneously.

• IVA Pro Buildings License: Enables advanced video analytics features specifically designed for building surveillance. This includes features such as intrusion detection, people and vehicle tracking, and unauthorized access detection.
• IVA Pro Perimeter License: Intended for perimeter surveillance and protecting boundaries by identifying and tracking people or vehicles crossing defined lines or entering recorded areas.
• IVA Pro Traffic License: Extends the camera's video analytics to traffic monitoring. It can be used to monitor road traffic, detect incidents such as queues or accidents, and analyze traffic patterns.

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 (staying in an 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 leaves 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 (meat counter).
15. Traffic incidents.
16. Traffic wrong way (oncoming traffic).

All of these analyses are available in all Bosch surveillance cameras, making Bosch one of the best and most widely used European surveillance cameras. You can see more about the possibilities with "Forensic Search" here:

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

Standalone device with SD card: The camera can operate as a standalone device with SD card, allowing you to download all recordings directly via the Bosch Security app, completely free of charge and without removing the SD card from the camera. The camera also monitors the condition of the SD card, so you can be sure that it is working properly, even if it wears out or breaks. This solution works just as easily as a hard disk recorder.

Bosch NVR: If the camera is to be integrated into a larger solution, it can be connected to a hard disk recorder from Bosch (DIVAR) or via ONVIF to a third-party recorder.

VMS platforms: If you are using a VMS platform such as Milestone, Genetec or a third-party solution, the camera can be added via Private protocol or ONVIF. To fully benefit from the metadata from the camera, please check the list of supported cameras on your VMS platform.

Power over Ethernet

Do as the pros do. PoE means that only 1 cable needs to be run to the camera. The camera is powered through the network cable, typically from a recorder with built-in PoE, or from a PoE switch.

Power over Ethernet

Do like the professionals. POE means that only one cable is needed for the camera. The camera gets power through the network cable, typically from a recorder with built-in PoE, or from a POE switch.
