i-PRO WV-S4176A 12MP AI Fisheye Indoor Security IP Camera

i-PRO WV-S4176A 12MP AI Fisheye Indoor Security Camera

The i-PRO WV-S4176A is a 12MP fixed fisheye IP camera engineered for comprehensive indoor surveillance without blind spots. Delivering a full 183° horizontal and vertical field of view, this camera captures panoramic imagery in a single sensor, making it ideal for large interior spaces such as lobbies, warehouses, retail environments, and control centers. Powered by the Ambarella CV22 SoC and equipped with native AI analytics, the WV-S4176A provides intelligent video motion detection, people counting, sound classification, and privacy masking without requiring external processing.

Key Features

• 12MP Ultra-High-Resolution Sensor: 1/2-inch CMOS sensor with native 12MP resolution (2992×2992 pixels at up to 30 fps in fisheye mode) enables identification-grade detail at distances up to 3 meters and detection coverage to 56.1 meters when mounted at 3 meters height.
• 183° Panoramic Coverage: Full horizontal and vertical field of view eliminates traditional dead zones, providing single-sensor room or floor-wide surveillance where multiple fixed cameras would otherwise be required.
• Advanced Low-Light Performance: Delivers 0.3 lux color and 0.2 lux monochrome at F1.9 with standard settings, with extended low-light modes supporting 0.02 lux color and 0.01 lux monochrome for dimly lit environments.
• 84dB Dynamic Range with WDR: Wide Dynamic Range processing with adjustable levels (0–31) handles extreme lighting conditions, backlight, and high contrast scenes while maintaining image clarity.
• Native AI Analytics: Integrated AI-VMD, people counting, sound classification (gunshot, yell, vehicle horn, glass break), and privacy guard processing—all executed on-device without cloud dependency.
• Multiple Viewing Modes: Supports fisheye, quad PTZ, single PTZ, panorama, and combined fisheye-panorama modes with flexible resolution and frame rate options.
• PoE Powered: IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE (Class 0) simplifies installation with single-cable connectivity and eliminates separate power infrastructure.

The WV-S4176A represents a mature single-sensor solution for facility-wide indoor coverage. Its 183° field of view substantially reduces camera count requirements in large spaces, lowering total cost of ownership despite premium per-unit pricing. The 12MP resolution at maximum aperture (F1.9) and adjustable dynamic range deliver strong identification capability in mixed-lighting environments typical of 24/7 retail or institutional monitoring.

On-chip AI processing—particularly people counting and sound classification—reduces dependency on external analytics servers, improving deployment flexibility in air-gapped or bandwidth-constrained networks. Video motion detection with 4 independently configurable zones and 8 privacy mask zones provide granular event filtering and GDPR compliance tools.

The quad and single PTZ virtual pan-tilt-zoom modes, combined with 3-level digital zoom (1x, 2x, 4x), enable post-recording investigation without sacrificing fisheye capture. However, the fixed 1.4mm lens offers no optical zoom, so real-time tracking of distant subjects within the frame remains software-dependent. PoE Class 0 operation at 8.6W ensures compatibility with standard low-power PoE injectors and network switch ports.

Dual H.265/H.264 support, ONVIF compliance, and microSD local backup provide vendor-neutral integration and resilience. Suitable for SMB and enterprise deployments where ceiling-mount 360° coverage and on-device intelligence justify single-camera footprints in lobbies, stockrooms, command centers, and open-plan offices.
