Sharpdome Technology: Achieving Sharp Images At All Angles
Sharpdome technology improves PTZ camera performance by eliminating distortion and image degradation common in conventional dome designs, especially when tilting the camera. Traditional domes suffer from refraction errors and “mirroring” due to misalignment between the camera and dome geometry, particularly at higher tilt angles. Sharpdome solves this by tilting the dome and positioning the camera at the center of a spherical design, achieving an optimal L-value of zero and consistent optical distance across all angles. This ensures sharp, undistorted images even above the camera horizon. Additional features like speed dry actively remove water droplets for clear visibility in rain, making it ideal for city surveillance, uneven terrain, and large open environments.
