Revolutionizing Surveillance: Jie Wu's IPC S274 Series

Blending Tradition and Innovation in Security Camera Design

Jie Wu's inspiration for the IPC S274 series stems from a desire to harmonize the traditional native culture with modern corporate culture. The result is a camera that embodies professional and reliable industry characteristics through a modern and pure modeling language. The design softens the often intimidating presence of surveillance cameras, offering a new impression of security and reliability.

The IPC S274 is a full HD 4x optical zoom PTZ network camera, boasting unique features that set it apart from other designs. It is equipped with built-in infrared LED that enables visibility up to 50 meters ahead at night. Its high-precision PTZ supports horizontal rotation from -135 to 135 degrees, and vertical rotation within the range of -60 to 60 degrees. The compact and simple design, excellent waterproofing, and neutral white color allow it to blend effortlessly into any environment.

The camera's shell is crafted from a special type of plastic, chosen for its dual benefits of lightness and solidity. Despite its plastic composition, the IPC S274 can withstand extreme temperatures, from -30 to 60 degrees Celsius, making it a reliable choice for various environments. The device's weight is a mere 1500g, a testament to the designer's commitment to creating a lightweight yet robust product.

Technical specifications of the IPC S274 include features such as Wide Dynamic Range (WDR), Noise Reduction, and Back Light Compensation (BLC). With an ingress protection rating of IP66, the camera can store up to 64GB of data and function normally in environments with temperatures ranging from -35 to +60 degrees Celsius or relative humidity less than 90 percent. The dimensions of the IPC S274 are 357mm * 106mm * 194mm.

One of the most significant challenges faced during the design process was ensuring the camera's durability and functionality in outdoor use. Issues of heat dissipation, vapor elimination, optical illumination, and ingress protection were meticulously addressed. Infrared glass was used to improve night-time illumination, and a heat control and ventilation device was incorporated into the camera's design.

Notably, the IPC S274 series was awarded Silver in the A' Security, Safety and Surveillance Products Design Award in 2018. This prestigious accolade is reserved for top-of-the-line, creative, and professionally remarkable designs that demonstrate outstanding expertise and innovation. Jie Wu's IPC S274 series is a testament to the power of design in revolutionizing the perception and functionality of everyday objects.
