Digital Window from Scallop Imaging. The device is consists of five
cellphone camera lenses for seven megapixel imaging at fifteen frames
per second and a 180ยบ view.
Digital Window allows for excellent face recognition as well as instant
digital pan and digital zoom with no camera movement at all. It’s
a great device for offices and call centers that deal with sensitive
information. Although employees have five eyes watching from each
camera, the final image is a single stitched one covering 180ยบ.
An excellent hack device, the Digital Window fills a niche that required
hi-def stealth cameras to keep track of employee activity. The one
drawback of this device is that the amount of information that it
generates over a 10/100 Ethernet network could be overwhelming. Storing
can be managed, what about archiving those terabytes of information and
also compliance issues that you will need to factor.
Two such devices will give a 360ยบ view without any fish eye distortions
or blind spots. The images are compatible with video analytics software.
Wonder why Scallop stopped at five lenses and seven megapixel; surely
there’s room for more power and more fun but definitely not for
the staff which now knows that big brother really is watching them.
