Description

The BN8037AI/NDAA is Bolide's long-range licence plate recognition bullet. A 5-50 mm 10x motorised varifocal lens on a 1/2.7-inch progressive-scan CMOS sensor gives a DORI detection range of 848 m and an identification range of 84.8 m at the telephoto end, which is what a gate, barrier or car park entrance reading needs. At the 5 mm wide end the same figures are 124 m detect and 12.4 m identify.

The camera records 2592 x 1944 at 20 fps with 120 dB wide dynamic range and a 0.05 lux minimum illumination at F2.0, dropping to 0 lux with infrared. Four IR LEDs reach 80 m. Day/night behaviour is selectable between full colour, day and night, and smart illumination modes. Edge analytics cover face detection and recognition, licence plate detection and recognition, pedestrian and vehicle classification, perimeter intrusion, line crossing, object detection, cross counting, heat map, crowd density, queue length, region entrance and exiting, tampering and sound detection.

The metal housing is IP67 rated and operates from -30 to 60 degrees C at under 95 per cent non-condensing humidity. Power is 12 V DC at up to 6.9 W or 802.3af PoE at up to 8.7 W. A microSD slot takes cards up to 1 TB, and the camera supports ONVIF Profiles S, G, T and M. It is NDAA compliant. Measuring 285.75 x 82.55 mm and weighing 1.42 kg, it pairs with the Bolide BP-JB-BOX hinged junction box.

Key features

848 m detection range

DORI figures at 50 mm are detect 848 m, observe 339 m, recognise 169 m and identify 84.8 m; at 5 mm they are 124 m, 49.7 m, 24.8 m and 12.4 m.

Licence plate recognition on the edge

Plate detection and recognition run on the camera alongside face recognition, so no separate LPR server is needed.

120 dB WDR with 80 m infrared

Holds plate detail against headlight glare, with four IR LEDs reaching 80 m and selectable full-colour and smart illumination modes.

NDAA compliant, ONVIF S/G/T/M

Meets NDAA Section 889 sourcing requirements and integrates across four ONVIF profiles.
