Smart CS-Mount lenses for network applications
Engineered to optimize IP image quality by exchanging information from the lens to the camera, the i-CS series brings intelligence from the camera to the lens. Communication of the lens' specifications to the camera, such as model type, manufacturer, geometrical distortion, focal length, and F-stop, drastically reduces manual configuration time. i-CS compatible cameras can call up lens information on demand, delivering application-specific functions for the selected video surveillance Installation. Setting up time is further streamlined by allowing remote zoom, EIS, and BDC adjustment.
The i-CS series results from a joint development between Computar Optics and Axis Communications® and has become the industry standard in intelligent optics.
Models:
To communicate with the lens, network cameras with support for i-CS lenses use an open protocol co-developed by Axis Communications® and Computar®. Thanks to the information from the lens and the use of the protocol, the camera can always optimize its image quality. Using data about geometrical distortion from the lens, it performs barrel distortion correction (BDC). The lens also contains information enabling the camera to stabilize the image automatically using electronic image stabilization (EIS).
*The i-CS lens requires an i-CS lens-compatible camera.
