VIVOTEK has announced the release of the NDAA Compliant VC9101 high-performance split-type camera system with Trend Micro IoT Security.

“The VC9101’s discreet design, rich functionality and ability to be flexibly integrated into even the tightest spaces, make this camera ideal for indoor or covert surveillance of ATMs, banks, stores and offices,” said David Liu, President of VIVOTEK USA, Inc. “The VC9101 features a separate camera unit (CU series) and video core design, enabling the tiny camera unit (with five-meter long cable) to be easily and flexibly installed into any decoration or interior design, thus preserving stylish appearances while dramatically saving on installation time and cost.”

The VC9101’s video core has a powerful processor which can stream a 5MP 360 degree fisheye image or a 4MP 16:9 image. Furthermore, the VC9101 is equipped with CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) hardware accelerator which allows the deep learning VCA be more efficient and powerful. VC9101 also provides deep learning based face detection suitable for most installation scenarios.

The VC9101 camera core can support one camera unit and is designed to work in perfect harmony with a choice of four different types of camera units (CU9171-H, CU9171-HF, CU9183-H and CU9183-HF). The whole system incorporates a number of advanced features found in VIVOTEK cameras, including WDR Pro, SNV, Smart Stream III technology, 3DNR and security features like secure boot, signed firmware and Trend Micro cybersecurity.

Benefits of the VC9101 include:

• Discreet appearance

The smaller camera form factor enabled by the split core/camera design also allows a less obtrusive appearance where there are aesthetic concerns or to reduce the risk of opportunistic tampering or vandalism.

• Flexible selection for different scenarios

With a choice of four WDR camera units: CU9171-H(F) pinhole type and the CU9183-H(F) fisheye type for 180 degree Panoramic View, the VC9101 provides unprecedented flexibility. The split-type camera system can be used to monitor spaces such as ATMs, elevators, a single large space, or to provide different types of views, among other possible usage scenarios.

• Greater coverage with simplified installation

The camera unit that can be connected to the core unit can be positioned up to five meters away, enabling the tiny camera unit to be easily and flexibly installed into any decoration or interior design.

• Easier maintenance and upgrades

The modular design of the VC9101 makes removing individual camera units for maintenance or replacement extremely easy. Moreover, upgrades can also be easily accomplished, since they need only involve swapping out of a camera unit and not replacement of the entire system.
