The Honeywell HCD544 True Day/Night camera is ideally suited for use in 24/7

surveillance applications. The HCD544 adapts to varying lighting conditions to

ensure the highest quality picture even in very low light. When the light level drops

too low for accurate video identification in color, the camera automatically moves

the IR cut filter out of the optical path and then switches to black and white video

to capture more detail using the increased sensitivity of the CCD to IR light. 

The camera uses internal logic or an external LAMP connector to control the

switchover from color to black and white. This improves the reliability of the

operation of the camera in difficult installations or lighting conditions.

An on-screen text menu simplifies all setup and adjustment options. Menu

navigation is simple and picture adjustments can be made in a matter of seconds

with easy-to-use pushbuttons on the back of the camera. The HCD544 includes

an automatic electronic shutter for changes in light level, and automatic backlight

compensation option for viewing backlit scenes. The HCD544 produces 540 TV

lines of resolution for applications requiring the highest level of sharpness in video

quality as well as providing reliable video quality even in low light conditions down

to 0.1 lux, or 0 lux with auxiliary infrared lighting. 

Market Opportunities

The HCD544 is designed for high resolution 24/7 surveillance applications,

including those using infrared illumination. This includes general indoor surveillance

applications in retail, financial, and other commercial markets. Combined with 

the HHC12 environmental housing, the HCD544 can be used as a solution for

outdoor applications such as parking lots, building entranceways, and driveways.
