  1. For applications like that (if you want 100% facial recognition) you need a high-end professional body camera with Wide Dynamic Range. Check out the Panasonic SDIII. The reason for the dark faces is either the BLC (back light compensation) is weak or non existent. The Iris will close up due to the bright light around the person entering, making everything else dark. WDR will pretty much even out all lighting making both the outside, person, and inside very even in regards to light levels.

     

    What Make/Model camera have you tried in the past. Post the specs and we will tell you why you are getting these results. Also what brand lens were you using?

     

    WDR101

    Conventional camera (with BLC off)

    When the background is brighter than foreground and the BLC function of the camera is OFF, the main object will be less-exposed and unable to be recognized.

    Conventional camera (with BLC on)

    When the background is brighter than foreground and the BLC function of the camera is ON, the background will be over-exposed and unable to be recognized.

    Wide Dynamic Camera (with WDR on)

    The Wide Dynamic camera has the Sony double speed CCD and the Wide Dynamic technology, both the foreground and background can be viewed clearly.

  2. I have used these plenty of times with no problems. Produce great video during normal lighting. Unfortunately not really made for low light, but still great performance. Very small for a High Speed PTZ. ( 4-1/2 inch diameter (114mm) and is in light weight of 2.7lbs (1.2Kg) When recessed in the ceiling you can barely see it. Are these for indoor or outdoor? For the price, haven't seen any better.

  3. You will have to use a RS-485 to RS-232 converter. The protocol I think is PELCO so the DVR should have no problem communicating. From other DVR's I have worked with you basically setup a preset (zoomed in to the gate) and some sort of alarm contact sensor. When the alarm is triggered the camera will zoom to the specified preset position. The problem I ran into with other systems is after an alarm is triggered you will need to reset it manually. This is being taken care of eventually with a software patch but as of now there is no time-out or auto-reset for the alarm. As for the GEO software, this may not be an issue. You will have to wait until a GEO master logs in and reads the post.


  4. I have not had too much experience with the Nuvico DVRs, but I can tell you the ICRealtime DVRs are bulletproof. I have been selling them for awhile now and had a 0% failure rate on everyone in the field. They just don't go down. Please dont take this as a "Product Pimp" I just would like to voice my personal experiences with the ICR line. If you have any questions at all about the ICR DVRs please feel free to post them.


  5. You should have no problem with that phone. Usually for remote view via a PDA or Cell Phone, Windows Mobile OS is the only thing needed. Being this phone utilizes Windows Mobile 5.0, which is the newest version, I dont see any incompatiblity.


  6. Got dual or multiple monitors? Ever wonder why you can only have the taskbar on one and not any of the others? Want to fix that?

     

    Try this program: http://www.realtimesoft.com/ultramon/

     

    It not only adds the taskbar to the rest of your monitors… it has a couple of other features as well.

     

    1. there is a true maximize button added to programs… it will expand any program across all monitors.

     

    2. there is a switch monitor button added to all programs. Got photoshop running on your right monitor… and a browser window you need to look at? say they are both maximized to fit that monitor… what do you do to see them both? well… you “restore downâ€


  7. I have had dual 19" LCD's side by side for a few years now. They are running off a radeon 9800 pro 256 and both at 1280x1024. It was a little weird at first, but I dont know how I would survive without them. I have a third monitor, same size and model which I would love to hook up as well.


  8. OK, so what about wireless networks that just utilizes the mac filter and no WEP, radius, WPA, etc. Do you think that it is secure as one just using a WEP? I know it would be better to use both but which one is the most secure, if you were to pick one?
