COPELL, APRIL 2018 – The IDIS’s H.265 IR PTZ surveillance camera has achieved the rare distinction of winning two top international design accolades. The innovative camera has scooped both the 2018 international iF Design Award and the Red Dot ‘seal of quality’ Award.
The annual iF Design Awards is a globally-recognized multi-disciplinary prize, which this year attracted 6402 entries from 54 countries. The awards have been running since 1954 and this year the panel of independent expert judges selected just 65 winners, including IDIS.
The Red Dot Award, also dating back to the 1950s, is now one of the most sought-after quality marks for good design. The Red Dot program recognizes qualities such as ‘ease of use, high level of functionality, attractive appearance and compatibility with the environment’ in making selections for its annual honors program.
IDIS’s double-winning entry, the H.265 IR DC-S3883HRX model, has already been noted widely for the clear images it provides, using an 8MP Auto Focus lens and its use of high-powered IR LED for motion detection and image analysis of objects at up to 200 meters at night. With its sleek, ergonomic construction the camera’s horizontally placed lens and IR are designed to reduce camera height and prevent diffuse reflection during tilt moving. This design feature improves usability with notably smooth movement of the lens head.
The award-winning PTZ, featured prominently at the recent ISC West security show in Las Vegas—where IDIS formally shared its dual recognitions with the security community—also features a 31x AF optical zoom lens (f=6.5 - 202mm) delivering 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) resolution, as well as two-way audio, a built-in heater, and PoE. In addition, it incorporates H.265 with IDIS Intelligent Codec and MAT (motion adaptive transmission) technology, which delivers savings of up to 90 percent on storage and bandwidth over H.264, depending on the scene and resolution.
Keith Drummond, Senior Director, IDIS America, welcomed the iF and Red Dot Awards attributing IDIS’s success to continual investment in every aspect of surveillance, including product design, with an ongoing commitment to performance and ease of use.
“Everyone at IDIS is delighted with these international awards because they recognize the importance that we give to product design and form factor in executing our commitment to excellence in surveillance. Our aim is to continually improve on the design, quality and performance of our products, innovating wherever we can, and these recognitions are two of the many fruits of that commitment. We are grateful for the recognition of these two programs.”
Speaking at ISC West, Benjamin Bryant, an IDIS spokesman, noted the increasing importance of design and form factor in a changing security climate:
“As recent events show, powerful, highly-functional surveillance and security are becoming an increasing necessity in environments such as schools, churches, and other community gathering spaces. Integration of technology that is as seamless and non-intrusive as possible is central to maintaining the essential character and purpose of these figuratively, at times literally, sacred spaces. IDIS understands that a commitment to form factor that feels smoother, less industrial, and more natural when in-place (compared to previous generations of surveillance tech) can mean the difference between someone feeling ‘watched’ and someone feeling ‘watched over.’ It’s not easy to make a large, functionally rich PTZ camera feel as comfortable and natural as the IDIS DC-S3883HRX does, and these global design recognitions reflect that.”
