Oncam, the provider of premium 360-degree video capture technologies, has announced the release of updated firmware that transforms the powerful and compact C-Series cameras into some of the most advanced and flexible cameras
Multi-Mode adds the flexibility, versatility and ultimately expands the use cases possible with 360-video technology. With the updated C-Series, stakeholders are empowered to record everything that happens within a scene with the 360-degree video coverage and at the same time easily configure alternate and more natural looking views tailored on specific needs. The enhanced functionalities of the C-Series continue to be powered by the Qualcomm Vision Intelligence Platform, which spans a full range of system-on-chips (SoCs) designed for running compute-intensive workloads at the edge of the network.
Dilen Thakrar, product manager at Oncam, said, “Multi-Mode delivers unrivalled camera flexibility, all from one camera. This camera solution can be tailored to many needs. Whether an operator requires a 360-degree camera, a panoramic camera, or both at the same time, the C-Series can exceed the expectations of 360-video today. Being able to offer this level of versatility all from the same camera ensures we can meet many more uses cases whilst providing simpler configuration, ordering and stocking processes for our partners.”
Jérôme Jacqmin, senior director business development, Qualcomm Communications S.A.R.L, said, “Video is a core data source generated from IoT deployments and 360-degree video is an integral part of this ecosystem. Our continued collaboration with Oncam contributes to the development of the innovative video solutions that support organisations to enhance their digital transformation strategies. We believe that together, we are pushing the envelope of what is possible with video.”
Jon Marsh, senior vice-president Technology, Oncam, said, “We’re not just leading the way in 360-degree video. We’re redefining it for the next evolution of IoT and security solutions. We’re dedicated to providing our strategic alliance partners and customers with the flexibility they need to achieve their ever-evolving operational and security requirements. This commitment is driven by our promise to continue to leverage our deep expertise in panoramic imaging and edge dewarping to push the envelopes of 360-video technology.”
