Axis Communications has recently announced two new IP camera devices that are the first full featured network cameras to include Thermal Imaging. Thermal imaging will allow for persons and objects to be detected with great reliability in complete darkness and in environments that may include smoke, haze, dust or light fog. Thermal imaging has existed with specific analog surveillance cameras for some time but these products have always been geared towards high-end installations with a higher price point then most people are willing to accept.
The Axis Q1910 and Axis Q1910-E are the first full featured network camera devices to include thermal imaging. Both the Axis Q1910 and Axis Q1910-E have the capability of producing images based on heat that will radiate from objects, vehicles or persons. This will provide users with added viewing capabilities in environments that are in complete darkness and in environments that may hold harsh weather conditions.
