General MOBOTIX Camera Functions

Like all MOBOTIX cameras, the D14D line has a variety of software functions: from motion
detection and long-term storage right through to alarm notification via video IP telephony.
Unlike in camera systems from other manufacturers, buying and installing additional
software on the computer is thus unnecessary. It is possible to use a web browser, however,
you can also download the free MxControlCenter or MxEasy from the MOBOTIX website,
which allows quick displaying of multiple cameras on one monitor, alarm switching with
audio or an easy event search.
vPTZ: Virtual Pan/Tilt/Zoom Features
While MxControlCenter has been providing virtual PTZ features for quite a while, these features
are now available directly in the MOBOTIX camera. This means that you can continuously
zoom into or out of the live image using either the mouse wheel or a joystick. When storing
images or video sequences, you can choose to store either the visible image area of the
live image or the full sensor image (full image storage). This also allows examining the
parts of an image or video that had not been visible in the live image section on display
at the time of the recording.
Automatic Image Correction (Only With The L22 Lens)
Another problem familiar from the field of photography are the distortions that result from
using wide angle lenses. Straight lines near the image borders are curved. The integrated
distortion correction features of the camera (and of MxControlCenter) allow the curve of
various lenses to be corrected using software functions.
Live Video With Up To 30 fps, Including Audio
The MOBOTIX cameras deliver smooth live video with lip-synchronous live audio, yet
they keep the network load to a minimum. Some analog systems may also be able
to deliver this, but the quality of recording is so much higher with MOBOTIX since
the cameras efficiently store the high, live-image resolution and frame rate without
compromising image quality. MOBOTIX technology thus provides for continuous recording
of simultaneous video from 30 cameras at 30 frames per second each, including audio,
all on one standard PC.
Very Low Network Load
MOBOTIX's patent-pending streaming format MxPeG enables fast live video with sound
at extremely low network load (1 to 2 Mbps). Since the MOBOTIX camera itself detects
movements in the image (and not the computer), the video sequences are only transmitted
if movements occur.
