How to choose a thermal camera for your project
When selecting a thermal camera, consider:

• Detection range and scene width
• Thermal resolution and sensitivity
• Lens options and field of view
• Analytics for perimeter and intrusion detection
• Environmental performance (rain, fog, temperature range)
• Mounting height and angle
• Integration with VMS and alarm systems
• Total cost of ownership

In IP Video System Design Tool, you can:

• visually simulate detection zones for thermal cameras (Johnson’s criterion for thermal cameras)
• compare lens coverage and detection distance
• optimize camera placement for perimeter protection
• identify blind areas before installation
• build a clear 2D and 3D project layout for client presentations
