Axis Certification Exam
VAPIX - Answer-Copyrighted integration application for Axis cameras
ONVIF - Answer-Global open industry forum for standardizing network interfaces of video products to
ensure greater interoperability
f-number (f-stop) - Answer-Light gathering ability of lens
Lower f-number - Answer-Better low light performance
Manually adjusted iris works well in - Answer-constant light level
Auto adjusted iris works well in - Answer-changing light levels
Day/night functional camera has - Answer-Removable IR filter (on during day, off during night)
Optimized IR - Answer-Allows even IR lighting for camera
Lightfinder Technology - Answer-Extreme light sensitivity
Meagapixel sensors - Answer-Guarantee full frame rate, high color fidelity, 16:9 aspect ratio
Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) - Answer-Large differences in lighting of parts in scene
, Wide Dynamic Range Mode - Answer-Combines short exposure of lighter parts, and long exposure of
dark parts of a scene
Thermal Imaging - Answer-Used during dark scenes, and unideal conditions (Fog, smoke, mist)
Electronic Image Stabilization - Answer-Stabilize image in vibration susceptible locations, use gyroscope
and algorithms to compensate, processes movement digitally (does not change lens settings)
Corridor Format - Answer-Rotated camera 90 degrees to provide 9:16 aspect ratio
Pixel Counter - Answer-Visual aid as frame with counter of width/height pixels to ensure resolution is
sufficient
Fixed Bot Cameras - Answer-Traditional, visible, good as deterrent, can come with interchangeable
lenses
Fixed Bullet Cameras - Answer-Small, slim design, outdoor ready, built in IR, non-interchangeable lenses
Fixed Dome Cameras - Answer-Camera inside dome housing, discreet and unobtrusive, hard to see
viewing direction, more resistant to tampering, can have interchangeable lenses
Onboard Fixed Dome Cameras - Answer-Specifically designed for transportation surveillance, must be
dust/water protected, must be tamper resistant, must be vibration/shock resistant
Panoramic Cameras - Answer-Provide wide area coverage, single/multisensor or multidirectional, can
provide single/double/quad view for monitoring
