The Enhanced UniPhier(R) LSI Processor used inside Panasonic's new "5-series" i-PRO SmartHD full 1080p cameras provides H.264 (high profile) video streams that require half the bandwidth and storage while enabling new levels of performance, image quality and a range of smart features to enhance system solutions. Enhanced UniPhier enables dual streaming to simultaneously supply 1080p full-HD and 360p video streams, both at 30 frames per second (fps), for real-time monitoring and high-resolution recording.
Enhanced UniPhier's cropping sequence function provides a clear picture of both the whole image and a specified smaller area. A 640 x 360 cropped area of an overall image can be transmitted as the second video stream, and four cropped areas can be transmitted sequentially and/or rotated, moved or zoomed in using Common Gateway Interface (CGI) commands. CGI commands can also specify coordinates to select any area for cropping. Using the camera's video motion detection (VMS) function as an event trigger can initiate cropping based on an alarm.
Another new feature of the Enhanced UniPhier LSI Processor is two-area Variable Image Quality on Specified Area (VIQS), which enables up to two areas of an image to be encoded at lower quality to save bandwidth while maintaining maximum quality in critical areas of the field of view. VIQS areas can be selected as up to 40 percent of a total image. Enhanced UniPhier also uses new, more efficient H.264 encoding to reduce bandwidth and storage by 22 percent compared to the previous version. Two-area VIQS enables an additional 22 percent decrease in the bandwidth of a video stream. Overall, Enhanced UniPhier produces video that requires half as much bandwidth and storage.
