Product Summary
One Camera. Zero Blind Spots. Total Area Intelligence in a Single Ceiling Mount.
Traditional surveillance designs require three to four cameras to cover a large open area such as a banking hall, retail floor, or hospital waiting room — introducing multiple cable runs, mounting points, and recording channels. The 12MP fisheye camera replaces this with a single unit: one cable, one recording channel, and complete 360-degree situational awareness from ceiling-centre to the outermost walls.
SSAL supplies 12MP fisheye network cameras delivering 12 megapixels of panoramic resolution and on-device digital dewarping — presenting security operators with a natural, distortion-corrected view rather than the curved fisheye image familiar from consumer optics. Multiple display modes including panorama, PTZ, and quad view adapt the single fisheye stream to any monitoring workflow.
Key Features
- 12MP 1/1.7" CMOS Sensor: High pixel density across the full 360° field provides face-quality resolution even at the edges of a large room — critical for identification in incident investigation
- 1.27mm Ultra-Wide Fixed Lens: Full 360° horizontal field of view in ceiling-mount mode; 180° hemisphere in wall-mount mode
- On-Device Dewarping: Corrections applied in-camera or by compatible NVR/VMS software; no dedicated dewarping server required — modes include panorama, PTZ (e-PTZ up to 8×), quad view, and fisheye-original
- H.265+ Compression: Despite the high 12MP resolution, H.265+ compression keeps bandwidth and storage consumption manageable; configurable sub-streams for mobile viewing
- 120dB Wide Dynamic Range: Manages simultaneous bright skylights and darker floor areas in open-plan environments without over-exposure or shadow loss
- Built-In Microphone: Audio capture across the monitored area — useful for post-incident review and for sites requiring audio evidence under Bangladeshi legal provisions
- Multiple Mounting Modes: Ceiling, wall, and desktop mount modes with corresponding dewarping profiles — software switching between modes without physical reinstallation
- IP67 Weatherproof: Suitable for covered outdoor areas such as car park roof decks, covered walkways, and loading bays in addition to indoor spaces
- PoE Powered (802.3af): Single-cable installation from network switch or NVR PoE port; no additional power supply
- Corridor Mode Panorama: Wall-mount panorama optimised for corridors produces a rectilinear view of the full corridor length without distortion at either end
- Edge Storage: Micro SD up to 256GB for on-camera recording buffer — maintains local footage continuity during network interruptions

Typical Applications
- Banking Hall & Open-Plan Branch: A single ceiling-mounted fisheye camera covers the entire customer service floor, eliminating camera-count and cabling complexity while meeting Bangladesh Bank image coverage requirements
- Hospital Waiting Areas & Reception: Complete situational awareness from a single discreet ceiling unit — less visually intrusive than a grid of conventional dome cameras
- Retail Store Floor: Overhead 360° view enables both loss-prevention monitoring and customer footfall heatmap analytics in a single camera
- Open-Plan Office Floor: Corporate security and HR departments use fisheye footage for incident investigation across large office floors with minimal camera equipment
- Hotel Lobby & Conference Centre: Covers wide reception areas and pre-function spaces without cluttering the architectural ceiling with multiple camera domes
- Car Park Stairwells & Lift Lobbies: Wall-mount mode provides 180° hemisphere coverage of high-risk, compact transition areas
Compatibility & Integration
12MP fisheye cameras are ONVIF Profile S/G/T compliant and integrate with Hikvision iVMS-4200, Dahua DSS/PSS, Genetec Security Center, and Milestone XProtect. Dewarping is performed either on-camera (hardware dewarping) or within the VMS software — SSAL recommends VMS-side dewarping for maximum flexibility in view layout configuration. E-PTZ functionality within the dewarped view requires VMS support; all major platforms listed above provide this capability.
SSAL Supply & Support
Smart Safety & Automations Ltd. includes fisheye camera planning as part of comprehensive camera coverage design, calculating optimal mounting height and position to maximise coverage radius and floor-level resolution for the specific facility. SSAL provides NVR/VMS configuration for dewarping profiles and e-PTZ presets as part of standard commissioning. Annual Maintenance Contracts include image quality checks and lens cleaning as scheduled preventive maintenance items.
