Detection in Total Darkness
A thermal camera sees heat, not light, so it needs no illumination and is not blinded by headlights, shadows or low sun. The uncooled microbolometer covers the 8–14 µm spectral range with a sensitivity (NETD) below 70 mK, and multiple palettes help operators read the scene. Thermal images do not identify people, which helps where privacy is a concern.
7 mm Lens Coverage
The 7 mm athermalized lens (F1.18) gives a 55° horizontal field of view with a near focus distance of 1.3 m (4.3 ft): the widest view in the family, suited to yards, building sides and areas close to the camera. The AXIS Q1941-E was offered with 7, 13, 19, 35 and 60 mm lenses, each in 8.3 fps and 30 fps versions.
Built-In Analytics
AXIS Motion Guard, AXIS Fence Guard, AXIS Loitering Guard, AXIS Video Motion Detection, audio detection and active tampering alarm are included, and AXIS Perimeter Defender is supported for perimeter protection. Events can be triggered by analytics, temperature, external inputs, schedules and edge storage events, and can record video, upload clips, send email, HTTP, HTTPS, TCP or SNMP notifications, or play an audio clip.
Network Security and Integration
Password protection, IP address filtering, HTTPS encryption, IEEE 802.1x (EAP-TLS) network access control, centralized certificate management, brute force delay protection and signed firmware are built in. ONVIF Profile G and S and the VAPIX open API support AXIS Camera Station, AXIS Companion and partner VMS software.
Built for Harsh Sites
The aluminum casing has an integrated dehumidifying membrane and a germanium window, with IP66, IP67 and NEMA 4X ratings and de-icing capability per MIL-STD-810F Method 521.3. A wall and ceiling mount bracket is included, and the camera accepts PoE Class 3, 8–28 V DC or 20–24 V AC power.
Typical Applications
- Perimeters and fence lines
- Utility, industrial and critical infrastructure sites
- Storage yards and open ground
- Building exteriors with no lighting
