Introduction

Optimized for surveillance onboard buses, this discreet, fisheye camera delivers outstanding images in any light conditions. It offers built-in cybersecurity features and support for advanced analytics based on deep learning on the edge.

360° view with just one camera
Designed to withstand strong shock and vibrations, this fisheye camera is optimized for surveillance onboard buses. And you don’t need to invest in several cameras—with AXIS M4318-PLR you get a complete 180° or 360° overview for total situational awareness. Plus, there’s just one camera to install, one cable to drop, one IP address, one video management software (VMS) license, and just one license for any analytics you choose to install. Furthermore, this cost-efficient camera ensures a lower power budget.

Outstanding images
With a stereographic lens and Sharpdome 360, AXIS M4318-PLR delivers greater sharpness at the edges of the image. It features a 12 MP sensor and offers great image quality around the clock, regardless of the light conditions. Forensic WDR provides clarity when there’s both dark and light areas in the scene. And Lightfinder for sharp, color images in low light. Thanks to built-in IR illumination with individually controllable LEDs, it delivers clear, reflection-free footage even in low light or complete darkness. Furthermore, it supports up to four digital PTZ views as well as dewarped panorama, quad, corner, and corridor views.

Secure and easy
AXIS M4318-PLR offers built-in cybersecurity features to help prevent unauthorized access and safeguard your system. For instance, Axis Edge Vault protects your Axis device ID and simplifies authorization of Axis devices on your network. Axis Zipstream with H.264/H.265 significantly reduces bandwidth and storage requirements. Furthermore, with a deep learning processing unit (DLPU), this high-performance camera delivers valuable metadata facilitating fast, easy, and efficient forensic search capabilities in live or recorded video.
