Introducing the Z3Cam-DX: A Revolutionary Dual Camera System

Z3 Technology, renowned for its innovative video encoding and camera solutions, has unveiled the Z3Cam-DX, a cutting-edge dual camera system. This new offering merges Z3’s video compression capabilities with Sony’s advanced 4K camera technology and DRS Tamarisk’s exceptional thermal imaging. Each camera operates independently and can be remotely controlled, allowing for simultaneous recording and monitoring in either dual or picture-in-picture formats. This state-of-the-art camera solution is particularly well-suited for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imaging tasks, including surveillance and monitoring applications.

Transforming Dual Camera Technology

“The Z3Cam-DX represents a notable advancement in dual camera technology. With this all-in-one solution, our clients can seamlessly integrate low-latency 4K video from Sony’s reliable system into their applications, complemented by the unmatched thermal imaging capabilities from DRS Tamarisk. The potential applications are vast, spanning industrial uses, clever monitoring, and surveillance systems,” stated Aaron Caldwell, CEO of Z3 technology.

Technical Specifications and Features

Utilizing the Sony FCB-ER8530 4K camera module, the visible camera boasts H.265 encoding, supporting resolutions up to 2160p30, along with a 30x super resolution zoom (SRZ) in UHD and a 40x SRZ for HD. The integrated noise reduction algorithm significantly enhances image clarity, particularly in areas with high detail and frequency.

The thermal component of the system employs the DRS Tamarisk camera module,delivering high-contrast thermal imaging at a resolution of 320×240. This camera is equipped with an integrated shutter, facilitating advanced video calibration for improved accuracy.

Market Potential and Applications

“We are impressed by the swift progress of the Z3Cam-DX system by the Z3 team using our FCB-ER8530 4K Functional Camera Block,” remarked John Monti,Director of Sales and Marketing for Visual Imaging Solutions at Sony Electronics,Inc. “We anticipate that the Z3Cam-DX will be in high demand across various sectors, including perimeter security, border control, frontier surveillance, and search and rescue operations.”
