    Analysis of Ds-2Cd2112-I Ir Reflection: Hikvision Npi Dept

    Uploaded by

    Nikos Tsagkopoulos Anastasia Dimaki
    The document analyzes potential causes of IR reflection in cameras, including loose foam rings, dust/grease on dome covers, and barriers near the camera reflecting IR light. Loose foam rings and barriers within 10cm of the camera can cause severe circular reflections and interfere with image clarity. Dust and grease on dome covers also cause whitened images by reflecting IR light. Improving plans include using larger protective films on dome covers during manufacturing and installation, training installers to avoid reflective barriers, and researching designs to separate IR light and dome covers.

    ANALYSIS OF DS-2CD2112-I IR REFLECTION

    HIKVISION NPI Dept.


    Possible Causes of IR Reflection

    Nearby barriers
    in the
    environment
    reflect IR light
    Loose contact
    between the Dust and | or
    sponge ring and grease on the
    the dome cover, or dome cover
    missing foam ring
    Interfering IR
    light leaking into
    the lens, which
    caused whitened
    or foggy image
    1. IR Leakage Caused by the Foam Ring
    • Severe circular reflection occurs if

    Normal Foam Ring


    the foam ring and the dome cover is
    not attached seamlessly.
    • Users can not see the image clearly
    without the Foam ring.

    Foam Ring Loose-contact

    Foam Ring Removed


    Solution

    1. Foam ring shall be required for IR dome camera


    2. Foam ring and the dome cover shall be attached seamlessly.
    2. IR Leakage Caused by Nearby Barriers

    Place a reflection surface (e.g. paper board)


    at approx. 10cm next to the camera.

    No Close Barriers
    Although the board is not displayed in the
    image scene, the reflection still interferes
    the image.

    Close Barriers
    The safe reflection distance varies
    according to the focus, video scene
    and shape of the barrier.
    Solution
    Pay attention during installation and avoid reflection surface(s) near the IR LED
    panel of the camera.
    2. Clean Dome Cover 4. Dusted Dome Cover
    3. IR Leakage Caused by Dirty Dome Cover

    1. Dusted and Greased 3. Greased Dome Cover


    Dome Cover
    Analysis
    1. Old dome cover with dust and grease, which caused IR reflection at night – the IR
    light reflects from the dome cover surface to the lens surface and causes whitened
    image.

    2. After switching to a clean and new dome cover, the clearness of the image
    recovers and reflection is eliminated.

    3. Touch the new dome cover with hands to create a greased surface, and whitened
    images can be observed after this operation.

    4. Scatter dust on the new dome cover to simulate a camera working under dusty
    environment. Regional whitened image can be observed on the dusted area.

    Conclusion: Grease is the main cause of dome cover reflection and whitened
    image, while dust enhances reflection effect regionally.
    Improving Plan 1
    Precaution: the clean dome cover shall be protected by films during manufacturing,
    storage, transmission and installation processes, and the film shall only be removed
    after installation. Currently the protection film is 1cm smaller than the dome cover
    brim range and shall be enlarged to protect the entire dome bubble.
    Improving Plan 2 -Temporary Solution

    Cleared with Napkin


    Temporary Solution:
    Clean the dome cover with
    clean cloth and ethanol

    Cloth+ Ethanol
    Cover
    Dirty Dome
    Improving Plan 3
    Improving by design:
    Separate IR light and Dome cover, similar to HIKVISION IR Speed Dome design

    Non-IR Speed Dome

    IR Speed Dome
    4. Summary- General Improving Plans

     Use larger protection film to prevent the dome cover from exposure of dirty

    environment, and with printed hinting message ‘Remove after installation’

     Training for installers and engineers to avoid environmental reflection caused by

    nearby barriers.

     Further researches for other improving designs.
