Iris Innovations Photon Ultra Low-Light 4K Night Vision Camera with 2.8mm Lens - White & Black

Photon Ultra Low-Light 4K Night Vision Camera with 2.8mm Lens - White Black

The ground-breaking new Photon Ultra Hi-Def / Ultra Low Light Night Vision Camera from Iris, available in 12mm and 2.8mm lens options for long-range and wide-angle applications.

Photon uses state-of-the-art video processing technology combined with AI analytics to enhance its ultra-high definition 4K (3840 x 2160) output, producing full color, real-time (25Hz) video in virtually pitch black conditions. Even in moonless skies, with just the faintest starlight, Photons cutting-edge processor analyzes each of its 8.3 million pixels, dynamically boosting and enhancing the output stream.

In addition to the cameras dynamic video processing, an integrated soft white LED illuminator is included to enhance visibility at short range.

Designed to overcome the shortcomings of expensive thermal imaging cameras, Photon is not bound by strict export controls, doesnt struggle in low thermal contrast scenarios, and isnt affected by lead time issues accentuated by geopolitical conflicts.

The cameras staggering ultra high definition output instantly adds value to leading chart-plotters offering 4K support, such as Garmins superb 9000 series range. Even if your display cant offer UHD, Photon can be configured to output video as required.

As the camera is powered via IEEE802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE), installation couldnt be simpler, requiring a single CAT5 cable, and just 4 drill holes (plus cable entry).

If you need to run at night and dont want the hassle or price tag of a thermal camera, Photon takes the heat out of night vision and leads the way!

The Iris Innovations Photon Ultra Low-Light 4K Night Vision Camera offers advanced visual clarity and reliable performance for nighttime surveillance in marine, security, or outdoor environments. Equipped with state-of-the-art video processing technology and AI analytics, this camera produces stunning full-color, real-time 4K (3840 x 2160) video even in extremely low light conditions, with illumination levels as low as 0.0003 Lux. Its ability to analyze each of the 8.3 million pixels dynamically ensures sharp, detailed images under moonless skies or starlit nights, making it ideal for long-range or wide-angle applications depending on the lens option selected.

The Photon camera features an integrated soft white LED illuminator that enhances short-range visibility up to approximately 100 feet, providing additional illumination when needed without adding external lighting sources. Designed to be versatile and easy to install, this camera is powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE) using a single CAT5 cable, simplifying setup with just four drill holes required for mounting and cable entry. Its compatibility with leading chart plotters, such as Garmin's 9000 series, allows seamless integration with existing navigation systems, supporting multiple streaming options for flexible viewing.

Built with durability in mind, the Photon Ultra Low-Light Camera boasts an IP67 environmental rating, making it resistant to dust, water, and harsh weather conditions. Its compliance with EN60945 EMC standards, NDAA, and ONVIF ensures it meets rigorous safety and security requirements. The camera is available in all white, matte black, or a combination of both, catering to aesthetic preferences and installation environments. Whether used for marine navigation, security, or outdoor surveillance, the Iris Photon's ultra-high-definition output and low-light capabilities outperform traditional thermal imaging options without the associated export restrictions or high costs. This camera is an excellent choice for nighttime monitoring where thermal imaging may fall short or be impractical.
