Alerting Yourself when Changes Occur
The combination of a built-in human detection sensor that responds to heat and a motion detection function that responds to a preset camera threshold or sensitivity detects even slight motions. Captured images can also be stored temporarily in the camera*1 or sent to you by e-mail*2 or FTP data transfer*3.
*1 A maximum of approximately 250 images (320 x 240 pixels) can be stored in the camera. *2 PDP before SMTP authentication and SMTP authentication (PLAIN LOGIN and CRAM-MD5) are supported. *3 The sensor's detection history can also be e-mailed to you once a day at a preset time.

Simultaneous MPEG-4 and JPEG
Cameras simultaneously send MPEG-4 images in three resolutions (VGA, QVGA, and SCIF), and JPEG images in the same three resolutions in favour motion, standard, and favour clarity image-quality types. MPEG-4 is recommended for viewing smooth motion images, and VGA(640X480) JPEG is recommended QVGA(320X240) for recording higher quality SCIF(192X144) images.

These are the world's first*2 network cameras with standard IPv6 support. Thanks to the dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 structure, they can be installed both on an IPv4 network today, and on an IPv6 network *3 in the future. By passing the stringent requirements for Phase 2 certification, these cameras have also become even more reliable and interoperable. *1 To connect using IPv6, it is necessary to subscribe to the ISP's "IPv4/IPv6 Dual-Stack" or "IPv6 over IPv4 Tunneling" service. The camera will not work in an IPv6-only network. For more information on IPv6, visit http://www.ipv6.org/. *2 The world's first network cameras of their kind (as of August 2004), featuring an originally developed IPv6-ready protocol stack. *3 This logo mark is issued by the IPv6 Ready Logo Program Committee, an IPv6 promotion group established mainly by the IPv6 Forum.
Sounds picked up by the built-in microphone can be heard through the PC. Video monitoring with sound enhances security by providing additional information that images cannot convey.
The sensor*1 detects people, animals, etc., due to temperature changes. When detected, the image or a series of images is sent to you by e-mail*2 or FTP data transfer*3 for easy checking. *1-1 The sensor detects heat by picking up the infrared light naturally emitted from people and animals. Certain thermal environments, sunlight, air conditioners, heaters, etc., may cause detection errors or decrease the range of the sensor. *1-2 The time needed to send images by e-mail from the camera will vary depending on the condition of the network. When setting the camera to send email images to a cell phone, we recommend setting a longer interval time. If the interval is set too short, more images will be e-mailed to your cell phone and therefore your cell phone charges may be higher. *2 PDP before SMTP authentication and SMTP authentication (PLAIN LOGIN and CRAM-MD5) are supported. *3 The sensor's detection history can also be emailed to you once a day at a preset time.
When you return home, just press a button to cover the lens and protect your privacy. System administrators can also do this over the network
You can use a PC or cell phone directly to change the direction that the camera is facing while monitoring the image. This lets you monitor a large area with a single camera.
