Vicon Industries is supplying its Surveyor dome cameras, Aurora 2000 Duplex colour multiplexers and V1400X system console to the £340m Festival Place shopping centre in Basingstoke, UK, in an installation which is being performed by ADT Portsmouth.
Festival Place opens in October 2002 and will feature a million square feet of retail shopping area, a 10-screen cinema, 13 restaurants and 3000 car parking spaces.
Aurora multiplexers screen refresh rates of 30 or 60 images per second while a rate of 90 images per second is available from the simplex versions of the Aurora 2000. Intelligent updating refreshes the live display and the output to the VCR more frequently for cameras observing motion than those observing static objects.
The Vicon dome cameras that will be used at Festival Place are the Surveyor 2000 model. These feature three-phase micro-stepping motors and a proprietary software driver which delivers smooth and silent operation through the entire range of speeds from 0,25 to 300°/s. The units have self-learn tours that simplify programming and allow for in-sequence editing and reverse touring.
