Introduction
Introduction to the RapidDome
ADEMCO Video’s RapidDome™ is a cost-effective, superior quality
internal dome that features a high-resolution, low-light sensitive color
camera in a high-speed pan/tilt/zoom dome assembly. Ideal for the
vast majority of indoor installations, RapidDome provides sharp,
detailed images down to 1.0 lux through advanced digital signal
processing, continuous autofocus and a 24X total zoom capability
(12X optical, 2X digital). RapidDome is the perfect complement to
ADEMCO Video’s Orbiter indoor and environmental domes that
feature extended zoom capacity, even lower light sensitivity and a
high-speed color/mono changeover camera option.
RapidDome features an intelligent zoom that automatically adjusts
pan and tilt speeds in proportion to zoom position. The dome provides
360° continuous pan rotation and manual variable speed control at
0.1-100°/second. Because of its attractive compact design and with its
low profile (at only 5"), the RapidDome makes the perfect choice for
applications where aesthetics are critical.
RapidDome is available in two standard dome assemblies; a false
ceiling mount and a plug and play pendant. The false ceiling version
provides quick and easy installation into any drop or false ceiling, no
additional mounts or accessories are required. The standard pendant
version provides the ultimate in flexibility. Its plug and play receptacle
gives you the freedom to choose the right RapidDome mounting
accessory for your installation.
