Axis: Q1728 Block Camera
Axis Communications has introduced the Axis Q1728 Block Camera – the first network camera with the "Artpec-9 system-on-chip from Axis". Developed specifically for the security industry, this industry-first chip supports the open-source AV1 video codec and improves AI-powered video analytics. Thanks to the Deep Learning Processing Unit (DLPU) and Axis Object Analytics, the camera can recognise and classify people, vehicles and vehicle types more precisely.
Optimised video transmission & cyber security
The camera uses Axis Zipstream with AV1 and H.264/H.265 support for low bandwidth and storage requirements, both on-premise and in the cloud. Axis Image Health Analytics ensures image quality, while Axis Live Privacy Shield ensures data privacy through AI-based masking. The hardware-based cybersecurity platform Axis Edge Vault protects the device and is FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certified.
High-quality 4K image quality
With 8 megapixels, the camera delivers 4K resolution at 60 fps. The large 1/1.2’ sensor and the proven Lightfinder 2.0 and Forensic WDR technology ensure excellent image quality even in poor lighting conditions.
Camera is available with two lens variants:
The camera is available with a wide-angle lens (6 to 13 mm with a horizontal field of view of 108° to 49°) for application scenarios in wide, open areas, as well as with a telephoto lens (15 to 48 mm with a horizontal field of view of 42° to 13°) for applications where high detail accuracy is required at long distances. Both lenses have remote zoom and focussing functions. Both lenses have remote zoom and focussing.
