IPELA ENGINE:
The arrival of Sony’s ‘IPELA ENGINE’ marks a new era for video security, offering enhanced image capturing capabilities and an industry first 130dB wide dynamic range in full HD quality at 30 frames/second.

Sony’s ‘IPELA ENGINE’ includes features such as View-DR, which provides pin-sharp images in extreme light conditions, XDNR, which creates clear images in low-light conditions through the detection and removal of noise within a single frame, DEPA analytics, an alarm detection function using image processing, and High Frame Rate, high-speed recording at 60-frames/second.
All of these features are now seen as vital, taking the IP video surveillance industry “Beyond HD”.
