Hikvision DS-2CE10DF0T-PF ColorVu 2MP Outdoor Analog Bullet Camera 3.6mm Lens

The  DS-2CE10DF0T-PF(3.6mm) 2MP Bullet Analog ColorVu Camera ,is a High quality imaging with 2 MP, 1920 × 1080 resolution.

. Here’s a breakdown with explanations:

Description:

• Bullet Camera: This refers to the camera’s cylindrical housing design, used for outdoor applications.
• 2MP Resolution: Captures video with 2 megapixels, offering good image quality.
• ColorVu Technology: A Hikvision technology that enhances color night vision for clearer low-light images.

The DS-2CE10DF0T-PF(3.6mm) 2MP Bullet ColorVu IP Camera

Components:

• Lens: (3.6mm  refers to the focal length) This captures light from the scene being monitored. A 3.6mm lens offers a wider field of view.
• Image Sensor: This electronic device converts light into an electrical signal. The 2MP (megapixel) indicates the resolution of the camera (number of pixels captured).
• Image Processor: This chip processes the electrical signal from the image sensor to create a video image.
• Infrared (IR) Illuminator LEDs (Optional): Some models might have IR LEDs for traditional night vision (black and white). ColorVu technology aims for enhanced color imaging in low light.
• Network Interface Card (NIC): This chip allows the camera to connect to a computer network and transmit video data over Ethernet cable.
• Housing: The weatherproof housing protects the camera’s internal components (bullet-shaped in this case).

How it Works:

1. Light Capture: The lens focuses light from the scene onto the image sensor.
2. Signal Conversion: The image sensor converts the light into an electrical signal.
3. Image Processing: The image processor processes the electrical signal to create a digital video image.
4. Daylight Operation: In well-lit conditions, the camera captures color images.
5. Low-Light Operation: In low-light conditions, ColorVu technology aims to enhance color night vision compared to traditional black and white IR night vision (depending on the specific model). Some models might also have IR LEDs for additional night vision capabilities.
6. Video Transmission: The camera transmits the digital video data over the network using the Ethernet connection. This data can be viewed live on a monitor or recorded for later playback.

Uses:

• Home Security: Monitoring entrances, exits, and common areas inside or outside a residence.
• Business Security: Surveillance of storefronts, offices, warehouses, and other commercial properties.
• General Surveillance: Monitoring public spaces, building exteriors, or other areas of interest.
