What is a panoramic camera

The panoramic camera, as the name implies, is a camera product that can perform global monitoring, full surveillance, and full-angle shooting of a large scene. Since the first product was officially launched on the market, it has been developed for about 5 years. In general, there are two ways to achieve a panoramic effect, one is to use a fisheye lens (large wide-angle lens); the second is to use a camera to achieve multiple stitching.

Regardless of the method used, the so-called global monitoring means that the camera can be monitored 180 degrees (mounted on a wall) or 360 degrees (mounted on a ceiling) at a standstill (without pan/tilt assisted rotation). When monitoring, the camera can achieve continuous shooting of the same large scene without having to switch screens. This solves the problem of incoherence in the multi-camera surveillance of ordinary cameras and makes the operation of the monitoring staff more convenient. In addition, the panoramic camera has a shooting angle of up to 360 degrees, which can fully capture the scene and avoid dead angles. Therefore, in some projects, one of the cameras can replace the effects of multiple ordinary surveillance cameras and achieve low power consumption. Simple wiring, high privacy and low construction and maintenance costs.
