The Basler BIP-1300c-dn IP camera provides excellent image quality at high frame rates with megapixel resolution (1280 x 960) and Day/Night featue. The Sony EXview HAD CCD progressive scan sensor achieves a further increase in sensitivity for low lighting conditions. This characteristic of the BIP-1300c is especially appropriate for professional indoor and outdoor solutions.

Performance characteristics:

• Progressive scan as the basis for exceptional image quality with reduced motion blur.
   
• Ideal image quality assured via a set of flexible control functions.The use of configurable measurement windows for exposure control makes it possible to obtain e.g. the best automatic brightness for a scene.
   
• Video compression with standards-compliant MJPEG, MPEG-4, or H.264 encoding. This flexible approach allows the customized use of multiple MJPEG streams while also using an MPEG-4 or H.264 encoded stream. The resolution and frame rate of the MJPEG image streams and the MPEG-4 or H.264 stream can be independently adjusted.
   
• 
  Scaling and AOI functionalities support customized resolutions. To display a maximum of detail with the highest precision, any image format and aspect ratio can be configured. This means that only relevant image data will be transmitted, leading to a significant reduction in bandwidth utilization and maximizing storage utilization. The unique AOI feature lets users define regions within the original field of view. The regions can be streamed separately to realize not only ePTZ but also multiple virtual cameras.
   
• Motion detection with an array of 32 x 24 definable fields for up to 5 different masks. Motion detection can be combined with extensive event and alarm management functionality. Configurable internal ring buffer storage makes it possible to access pre and post alarm images.
   
• Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) capability means that power can be supplied to the camera via the same cable used for the network connection.
   
•  Compact metal housing with an 89.2 mm x 29 mm x 44 mm size and a weight of only 230g.
   

What Makes Basler Camera Quality So Special?

To ensure consistently high product quality, we employ several inspection procedures during manufacturing. The following list indicates some of the most important quality assurance tools we use to meet your highest requirements.

Camera Sensor Alignment Tool (CSAT):

Due to higher resolutions and smaller pixels, depth of focus and the exact positioning of the imaging sensor in the camera are becoming more and more critical. An area scan sensor must be aligned in six degrees of freedom.

The back focal length on each camera is carefully measured and adjusted by our patented "CSAT" procedure. This guarantees an optimum distance between the lens flange and the sensor and ensures outstanding image quality based on compliance with optics standards.

Camera Test Tool (CTT+)

Our advanced Camera Test Tool (CTT+), the first fully automated inspection system for digital cameras, checks all of the significant quality aspects of each camera we produce. The CTT+ is a unique combination of optics, hardware, and software that can be quickly and efficiently used to calibrate a camera and to measure its performance against a set of standards. For defined sets of conditions, an automated software program examines the camera's output, makes any calibration adjustments necessary, and compares the output to a strictly defined set of performance criteria.

Basler customers get a 100% tested camera, all of the benefi ts that go along with 100% testing, and a much higher level of satisfaction. This is a definite win-win situation.
