Bosch Building Technologies has unveiled its latest innovation, the FLEXIDOME 8100i, a fixed dome camera designed to set new benchmarks in security and operational efficiency. This next-generation device builds on the success of the FLEXIDOME starlight 8000i series, incorporating advanced AI, exceptional imaging capabilities, and streamlined installation features. Tailored to address the demanding security needs of critical infrastructures such as airports, government facilities, and educational institutions, the FLEXIDOME 8100i is set to redefine surveillance standards.
The camera integrates edge-based AI capabilities powered by Bosch’s Intelligent Video Analytics Pro (IVA Pro), enabling precise object detection, classification, and real-time alerts. Its pre-installed IVA Pro licenses cater to diverse environments, including building access monitoring, perimeter security, and privacy safeguarding. With over 95% accuracy in detecting and analysing objects, the FLEXIDOME 8100i supports functions such as facial blurring for privacy compliance, personal protective equipment (PPE) detection, firearm identification, and traffic monitoring, ensuring adaptability to varied use cases.
Innovative Features for Modern Security Challenges
The FLEXIDOME 8100i delivers high-quality video in diverse lighting conditions, leveraging Bosch’s advanced Starlight X technology for low-light colour capture and HDR X for clear recordings of moving objects. Intelligent split infrared functionality enhances visibility in complete darkness, making it a reliable solution for 24/7 monitoring.
Installation has been optimised with motorised pan-tilt-roll-zoom (PTRZ) functionality and AI-powered auto-calibration, reducing setup time by up to 75%. Its robust design, with certifications including IP66/IP67 and IK11 for environmental and vandal resistance, ensures uninterrupted performance in challenging conditions.
Cybersecurity and Compliance at the Core
In an era where data protection is paramount, the FLEXIDOME 8100i incorporates cutting-edge cybersecurity measures, including Secure Element with Trusted Platform Module (TPM 2.0) and compliance with critical standards such as IEC 62443-4-1 and UL 2900-2-3 Level 3. Additionally, the camera adheres to US National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) and Trade Agreements Act (TAA) requirements, ensuring it meets stringent global trade and procurement standards.
Bosch’s commitment to security innovation positions the FLEXIDOME 8100i as an essential tool for organisations seeking predictive-ready, data-driven solutions. For more information, visit Bosch’s website or contact their press office.
