Ajax TurretCam HLVF (5 MP/2.8 - 12 mm)
Product description
TurretCam HLVF provides clear evidence in any environment or installation scenario. The motorized varifocal lens ensures the right visual context, from detailed close-ups to a wide overview. The camera ensures images are sharp and balanced thanks to real-time autofocus and True WDR technology. Even in the dark, the device retains color images by combining IR and white light. Thanks to the built-in audio and alarm inputs/outputs, TurretCam HLVF can be easily integrated into third-party systems, significantly improving existing solutions.
More features
Scene in focus, context in sight
TurretCam HLVF is designed to capture every critical moment in the frame, without missing blind spots or details. The autofocus varifocal lens can zoom in on faces, signs, or license plates, or zoom out to capture the entire scene. A single device provides optimal coverage, whether it's a busy event location or a small checkout counter. The camera is also available in 5 MP and 8 MP resolution options to meet the required level of detail.
See color in the dark
Thanks to hybrid illumination, TurretCam HLVF records in color even at night. When motion or an object is detected, the camera automatically switches from infrared (IR) to white light to capture every detail. The sudden flash of white light also acts as a deterrent for potential intruders.
Even lighting in every frame
TurretCam HLVF offers rich colors and precise details in any light. True WDR technology combines different exposed frames into one evenly lit image. As a result, the camera produces razor-sharp, detailed images without overexposed highlights or hidden shadows. This also offers flexibility in placement: whether opposite windows and entrances, under bright lights, or in shadowed corners.
See the essence with the power of AI
TurretCam HLVF saves time and storage space thanks to built-in AI-powered object recognition. The camera can distinguish between people, pets, and vehicles, and only records and notifies when the selected object types are detected. The AI settings can be easily configured and monitored via the Ajax apps. Whether it is a vehicle parking in a restricted area or a person appearing after closing time, the system ensures that users can focus on what is important while saving storage space.
Smooth navigation through the archive
With the Ajax apps, you can find recorded events faster than ever. Thanks to our patented JetSparrow technology, the system reacts instantly, ensuring smooth playback and easy navigation through the event timeline. Users can press on any event to jump directly to the relevant footage, filter recordings by date or object type, and export them within seconds, all within one intuitive interface.
Suitable for upgrades and retrofits
TurretCam HLVF integrates easily into existing systems. The alarm inputs and outputs provide a direct way to connect third-party detectors, flashers, sirens, or door locks for automated recording of and response to events. The audio ports allow you to connect existing microphones and speakers. Thanks to these additions, the camera can be the centerpiece of a full-fledged detection and notification system.
Simple integration via ONVIF and RTSP
Ajax video devices support ONVIF and RTSP protocols: no special tricks, no extra effort. This offers countless possibilities to upgrade existing video installations with advanced security features. With just a few taps, you can connect Ajax cameras and NVRs to a third-party surveillance or video management system (VMS). A dedicated wizard in the Ajax apps simplifies the configuration process by automatically loading all necessary network data. Enjoy smooth streaming and flexible image configurations, whether you are setting up a new installation or expanding an existing one.
A device without a hidden agenda
All data from the system is stored securely within the European Union and fully complies with European data protection standards.
The TurretCam HLVF is NDAA-compliant, which means that every component comes from manufacturers that are trusted and approved by the US government. Furthermore, TurretCam HLVF has successfully passed independent cybersecurity tests, proving the security and reliability of the device.
