1. Overview
Hyper Box IP Camera offers up to 4k2k resolution in real-time, providing
extraordinary images. With state-of-the-art encoding SOC, the camera is
capable of streaming 8MP resolution in real-time or 6MP resolution in real-time
+ 720P in real-time (or 2MP@120 fps). Multiple Region of Interest (ROI) and 3D
Noise Reduction are also supported for different application scenarios.
With all powerful functions mentioned above, the camera requires only
maximum 8.5W power consumption which saves a lot of expenses for users.
Hyper Box IP Camera is built-in with Auto Back Focus (ABF) function. Users
can simply adjust focus by clicking control buttons on the setting page, which
makes focus adjustment and remote focus tuning easier under 8MP resolution.
