Control for Panasonic cameras includes PTZ, focus, brightness, preset position call and program, auto mode, click centering and wheel zoom. Users can display live tour sequence images in a multi-screen format, or live group sequence images on several monitors. Additional features include ON/OFF mode of the OSD and playback control on the selected monitor; sequence control for tour sequence, group preset and group sequence; alarm control by recorder, camera, and encoder; and sophisticated user management encompassing user authentication, host authentication (IP address), status monitoring of equipment by SNMP or Ping and hardware.

The i-Pro WJ-GXD400 multi-channel high-definition video decoder has an HDMI video interface, browser GUI and embedded RTOS. The unit accommodates up to 256 cameras with support for tour and group sequence, camera site alarm signal and multicast/unicast for efficient network usage.

The i-Pro WV-NF302 ruggedized megapixel day/night fixed dome network camera features a 1280 x 960 megapixel image sensor with dual streaming capabilities. With a rugged heavy duty metal body, the WV-NF302’s superior image capturing features include Adaptive Black Stretch to enhance dark areas, progressive output to provide clear images of moving objects, day/night capabilities for 24-hour surveillance, and focus assist which automatically achieves the best focus. Additional features include automatically adjustable image compression to conserve bandwidth and deliver higher quality images in alarm mode, a built-in network interface, and Power over Ethernet (PoE).

Panasonic’s i-Pro WV-NP304 megapixel day/night network camera is a box camera that delivers the same levels of performance and connectivity as the WV-NF302.

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
