Axis Communications and Kowa: P-Iris
Axis Communications and Kowa: P-Iris. Axis Communications and Kowa introduced P-Iris, a precise iris control that allows fixed network cameras to deliver better image quality in both indoor and outdoor applications.
A P-Iris lens, together with specialized software, can automatically and precisely regulate the iris opening to enable better contrast, clarity, resolution and depth of field.
The advanced iris control will be especially beneficial for megapixel/ HDTV cameras and demanding video surveillance applications.
DC-iris (auto-iris) control for surveillance cameras with fixed/varifocal lenses does not enable the camera or user to know the exact position of the iris opening, which is needed in order to optimize image clarity.
Axis saw a need to solve this and found Kowa, an innovative optics manufacturer, to jointly develop a solution.
