Mobotix D15 Security Camera Overview
The Mobotix D15 security camera is intelligent and decentralized meaning it does not require a centralized computer or Network Attached Storage drives to function, although it can still be used with them if needed or wanted.
IoT and iP Connectivity
The Mobotix D15 security camera is designed from the ground up to be a smart iP device that is future-proof and ready for IoT (Internet of Things) connectivity. This connectivity allows the camera to turn on flood lights, sound an outdoor alarm, lock your doors, and notify the police all in 1 second in response to triggered motion detection. Another popular option is the ‘panic’ button you can keep in your pocket or around your neck. These are great to keep around the home, with store managers in the event of robbery/fire, or for the elderly. Program the camera to call, text, or email anyone instantly in the event of a trespass or trigger.
Decentralized Video Processing and Storage
Mobotix D15 security cameras have an in-camera SD-card and processing chip handles all storage, video processing, detection and alarm functions in order to lighten the load your video security data places on the network. This is especially useful since this camera has 2 lenses creating image data. Think of each camera having its very own DVR and management software built-in. This one-step recording process ensures better image quality, faster response, and less network resources. Each camera comes with a 4 gigabyte SD card but you may upgrade to any size up to 200 gigabytes.
The D15 like all other Mobotix cameras can also simultaneously record to Network Attached Storage of any size or a centralized DVR if you still wanted to use one. Just remember that with Mobotix cameras, the need for a centralized DVR is gone! All recording, motion detection, and triggering is done in-camera.
Dual Interchangeable Lenses
This particular dome security camera has two lenses in the same dome, providing a variety of viewing options depending on the type of lenses you choose. The Mobotix D15 security camera lens options include 103°, 90°, 60°, 45°, 31° and 15°. Every angle is available in either a color version for day-time or areas with available light or a night version for environments with low moon light.
Mobotix Moonlight Technology | Next-Gen Low-Light
The German engineered image sensors are over-sized in order to capture more light and detail which is especially useful for low light conditions. For moving objects you need short instead of long exposure times in combination with a high quality lens and image sensor. Mobotix delivers all of this and more.
Motion Detection 2.0 | MxActivity Sensor
If false alarms and wasted storage sound like fun, you should not use the MxActivity Sensor object and motion detection feature that comes built-in to every Mobotix security camera. MxActivity Sensor detects object movement and direction while ignoring small changes like leaves blowing, rain drops hitting the ground or rain water on lenses. No more getting false alerts on your phone or going through hours of leaves blowing in the wind.
Die Hard IP65 Build Quality
The Mobotix build platform is based on having no moving parts for pan, tilt, or zoom in order to give the cameras the longest life-time, an average of 9 years before failure. The no moving parts aspect is also what allows Mobotix cameras to function flawlessly in temperatures ranging from -40°F and +140°F.
Fun Fact: Every single Mobotix camera is tested for 4 hours at -40°F and +140°F in order to ensure quality. Most camera companies test a small sample of their products to save time and money.
H264 and H265
The H264 and H265 codecs inherently create motion blur because the codecs were made to display fluid Hollywood movies at 30 frames per second. What happens when you try to go frame by frame to get the perfect surveillance image using a motion image codec? Motion blur. Mobotix solved this problem by creating their own video codec designed from the ground up specifically for frame by frame surveillance.
The Mobotix MxPeg Video Codec
The Mobotix MxPeg video codec is superior to H264 and H265 in that it does not average out image detail in order to reduce bandwidth for smooth streaming. The MxPeg codec saves every single frame in full detail so that you can scrub frame-by-frame without motion blurring.
H264 and H265 is just a fuzzy memory. Mobotix MxPeg is a photographic flip book.
