IPVideo Corporation redesigned and improved their NomadHD – a high-performance 2MP video camera, rechargeable battery and WiFi / 4G modem / SD card within a compact custom housing, designed for easy installation on any smooth surface without the need for tools. The camera can be deployed in seconds, providing immediate, temporary surveillance video. The updated design is 50% smaller than its predecessor, and features 2-way audio, expanded mounting options and longer battery life. Its presence can serve as a theft deterrent as well as a forensic tool for a wide range of applications, including the monitoring of cargo holds, freight handling, crime scenes and building renovations. The camera’s rechargeable battery can operate for up to 8 hours per charge. An impact resistant and weatherproof housing allow for deployment indoors and out. A lockable on/off switch prevents on-site tampering.
The NomadHD may be used in conjunction with the SentryVMS video management system, which provides highly secure, easy access to live and recorded video from computer workstations or mobile devices. A single SentryVMS server can support a large number of NomadHD units, making it an ideal tool for Port Authorities, law enforcement organizations and other security management teams responsible for monitoring multiple, frequently changing locations. The NomadHD may also be used with many third-party VMS solutions, and can also record directly to the camera’s local SD card.
“There are so many instances when the ability to quickly install secure, high-quality temporary surveillance could result in increased safety and reduced theft,” explained Jack Plunkett, Chief Technology Officer of IPVideo Corporation. “Just like its namesake, our new, smaller and enhanced NomadHD ‘sets up camp’ and is completely self-sufficient, even without access to a power source.”
