New Toshiba IP Network PTZ Camera Provides High-Resolution, Wide-Range Remote Surveillance Coverage

ORLANDO, FL, SEPTEMBER 12, 2005 (ASIS) - In a move to capitalize on its strengths in enterprise-class networking and digital video technology, Toshiba Surveillance & IP Video Products Group today unveiled the IK-WB21A surveillance camera, offering ultra-fast Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) capability, razor-sharp SXVGA resolution (1280 x 960), and network functionality to help security professionals achieve new levels of remote monitoring performance with a wider field-of-view than standard TCP/IP cameras.

Able to connect to a network by 10/100T-Base Ethernet, the IK-WB21A's integral web server transmits its video with audio signals at rates approaching 30 frames per second by means of highly efficient M-JPEG compression streams. Using only a standard web browser, camera images can be remotely viewed and the camera's PTZ and multiple presets controlled via a desktop PC, notebook or Internet-ready cellphone on a LAN, WAN, Intranet or the Internet without additional software or plug-ins. Multiple clients are able to simultaneously access the same IK-WB21A on a network without any degradation in frame rate. Plus, the camera features a slot for a removable SD memory card, allowing for an added "at-the-camera" recording option that works in conjunction with an alarm.

Key to the success of the IK-WB21A is its fast, wide-range PTZ system, a benefit that makes the camera ideal for a variety of applications, and especially effective in smaller retail, office and residential applications where a single unit can cover an entire premise area. The 300-degree per second panning speed (-175 to +175 degree range) and 200-degree per second tilt speed (-30 to 90 degree desktop, -90 to 30 degree ceiling) permits the camera to immediately pinpoint a location without delays due to compression. The high quality, auto focus lens (f=4.0 to 88mm) has a built-in 22x optical zoom to scan in on tight areas, such as visual verification of a cash register transaction.

Incorporating a powerful 1.4-inch CCD, the IK-WB21A provides superior images with more detail and improved brightness than any other network camera in its class. Even at challenging lighting conditions, the IK-WB21A outperforms the competition thanks to its versatile backlight compensation, auto gain control, and extreme low-light sensitivity (0.13 Lux@F1.6).

Sleek, lightweight and remarkably compact, the all-in-one IK-WB21A offers the flexibility of being ceiling mounted or placed on a flat surface.

The Toshiba IK-WR21A camera is expected to ship in September 2005. MSRP has not been determined.
