Cost per unit Quantity 1: $100.77 + S&H | |
Most component modules can be obtained at a discount for quantity 3 or quantity 10+. | |
I estimate a purchase of 12 units would end up to be around $1200 with discounts and adding S&H. | |
Revised 12/22/14 from China quotes: | |
$728.77 Quantity 12 quoted from UCtronics for the above equipment | |
Of this, $107.70 is for connectors suited for other internal projects. | |
UCTronics Subtotal: $621.07 | |
Subtotal: $515.87 from Newegg (Quantity 12) | |
$621.07 + $515.87 = $1136.94 | |
$1136.94 + 145.47 = $1282.41 | |
$1282.41 + 199.18 = $1481.59 | |
Cost per unit (Quantity 12): $123.46 | |
$1481.59 + 107.70 = $1589.29 | |
Cost per unit (Quantity 12): $132.44 | |
SmartCam Capabilities: | |
sealed Waterproof enclosure, 3 sizes available including heater/forced air cooling. | |
Enclosure unlatches and opens from rear, exposing all components for easy access. | |
Only a single cat5e cable goes into weatherproof grommet. Wide voltage input allows sharing big remote power supplies. | |
Can be upgraded to 802.3AF/AT Power over Ethernet for $10 per unit. Upgrade fits inside existing casing. | |
Can operate internal DC or external AC/DC IR illuminators up to 1,250 Watts for each of 16 channels, expandable to 48 per camera. (not included) | |
Standard CS-Mount security camera lens. Easily replacable with Fisheye or motorized zoom lens. | |
Longer lenses require deeper mounting of camera PCB in chassis, possibly moving from 11" to 14" chassis. | |
Turn camera module upside down inside the casing and the unit is celing mountable. | |
Omnivision 5647 sensor with infrared cut-out filter removed allowing IR illumination of environment. | |
1920x1080P @ 30FPS 2.1 megapixel video recording and live streaming to up to 8 simultanious clients. | |
Sample pictures at http://www.arducam.com/camera-modules/5mp-ov5642/ | |
2592 x 1944 5 megapixel still pictures at 12 FPS. Can be used for autofocus calibration with a suitable lens attached. | |
High res 2592 x 1944 sample: http://www.arducam.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/OV5642_2592x19441.jpg | |
700Mhz/1Ghz Raspberry Pi application processor with 3D GPU and HDMI & audio output connectors. | |
100Mbit ethernet to USB2.0 chip included on "$30" Raspberry Pi B/B+ module. | |
Less expensive "$20" A/A+ module, would support a single 1000Mbit "ASIX-chip" USB3.0 adapter for $13 in volume. | |
Can drive an external display via HDMI, USB or SPI serial bus. | |
Linux operating system, choice of 6 off the shelf software stacks or roll-your-own. | |
8GB local storage capacity allows package manager based installation and innovative adaption to environment. | |
Local GPU used for motion analysis of video frames, passed on to server for selective compression. | |
ESCam's "Privacy Mark" feature could easily be implimented with the above features. | |
Android and iOS direct streaming of individual cameras or live grids of up to 128+ cameras. | |
Optional future time-wasters: | |
Installable applications such as 2-way video chat with voice-dial. Scriptable alarms. | |
Face detection and identification. Employee path tracking and history. | |
