GOLDEN, CO (November 17, 2009)…PENTAX Imaging Company has announced new technology to overcome the big challenges of the atmospheric interference of fog, snow, and haze in outdoor live security surveillance. PENTAX Atmospheric Interference Reduction (PAIR) system technology offers newly developed image processing circuitry installed directly within PENTAX lens housings with specific step by step signal processing for each lens Pentax PAIR lens used in foggy conditionscharacteristic
 

The primary advantages of in-camera PAIR technology include:

  • No image adjustment requirements.
  • Real-time clear images available immediately after video switching with multiple cameras.
  • Removable noise (graininess) that is caused by solid particles such as snow, smoke, or sand or by liquid particles such as fog and rain.
  • Color image reproduction for more accurate information.
  • Half the cost of dedicated devices such as image enhancers and/or element cancellation devices.
  • Autofocus.
PAIR technology entirely eliminates the need for more expensive, separate fog cancellation devices that require multiple cameras with individual adjustments.” said Tom Harada, Managing Director of Security Systems and Machine Vision Optics, PENTAX Imaging Company.
