Heifer International Using Arecont Vision Megapixel Cameras

Arecont Vision has installed megapixel cameras at Heifer International, a nonprofit that has a three-building campus.

The IP megapixel cameras will help broaden the company's video surveillance, improve the quality of images and reduce cabling and the number of cameras required.

“Arecont Vision provided the most robust features, and the panoramic options are beyond impressive,” said Zachary Wirges, president of system designer and integrator. “The customer recognized the quality of the product, which allowed performance and versatility to be the focus of the design.”

Heifer's campus now has three AV8185DN SurroundVideo® Day/night 8-megapixel H.264 cameras, one AV8365DN SurroundVideo® Day/night 8-megapixel H.264 camera, one AV2825IR full-HD mode, 1080p H.264 MegaView£ IP camera and four AV1355 H.264 MegaDome® IP cameras.

A central guard station monitors the cameras, but multiple departments can also monitor their areas.

“We can now see areas of the campus that were not previously addressed and acquire the necessary information to address whatever event occurs,” Wirges said. “The system can clearly deliver faces, license plates, vehicle details, physical details and even capture video in low light.”
