X4 COMMANDER Bi-spectral

X4 COMMANDER Bi-spectral rugged PTZ

The X4 COMMANDER Bi-Spectral is an advanced, rugged PTZ surveillance camera that combines high-performance visible imaging with cutting-edge thermal detection in a single integrated unit. Designed for mission-critical applications where all-condition awareness is essential, the X4 Commander offers unmatched flexibility, situational awareness, and target detection.

At its core, the X4 COMMANDER features a dual-sensor configuration, seamlessly blending a high-definition visible camera with a Vanadium Oxide uncooled thermal imaging sensor. The thermal sensor offers a resolution of 640×512, with images scalable up to 1920×1080, delivering detailed thermal imagery even at long range. The 12μm pixel pitch and ≤20mK thermal sensitivity ensure accurate heat detection and contrast, even in challenging weather or low-visibility environments.
Available with a choice of fixed thermal lenses—9mm, 15mm, 25mm, or 50mm—the Bi-Spectrum X4 COMMANDER can be tailored to suit specific operational needs, from wide-area monitoring to long-range target detection. This thermal capability is complemented by the X4’s powerful visible-spectrum optics, offering precise PTZ control, low-light performance, and smart tracking features.

Intuitive Operator Control

Intuitive, operator control, from fast pan and tilt speeds of up to 180° / second to speeds of less than 0.1° / second, for when an operator is precisely tracking a target. The COMMANDER also features long-life, super-efficient, white-light and IR LED illumination technologies, for night-time operation.

3D positioning allows operators simple control of the X4 COMMANDER PTZ. Quick and simple setup directly from the COMMANDER’s Web User Interface; or tracking targets by mouse click from a compatible control platform, latency and over run are no longer an issue.

Simple Installation, Maintenance Free

Designed for easy installation and configuration. A complete range of brackets, mounts and cable extensions allow upright or hanging installation in any environment, with a choice of RAL colour options to order. Cantilever arms enable the camera to view directly downwards on pole or tower mounts.

The mounting bracket has a 4” PCD mount with M8 clearance holes. A complete range of brackets, mounts and cable extensions are also available, which are zinc plated then powder coated.

The X4 COMMANDER Bispectral utilises a tooled silicone wiper option to keep the camera’s view through the flat, scratch-resistant window free of water and dirt. A linkage-free, sprung steel mechanism reduces wiper wear and a polycarbonate window gives an even tougher option. Wiper activation is by a button press on VMS systems, including the VMS1000™, or by pre-set.

Extensive Features

The X4 COMMANDER Bispectral has an extensive range of features including four video streams for recording, visualisation, set-up and servicing; H265, H264 and MJPEG compression; optional 1TB maximum SD card-based edge storage; ONVIF compliance to Profile S, G and T; 400 pre-sets, 12 tours, 12 scans, 6 tracks and 20 privacy masks; alarms, motion detection, intelligent analytics, image fusion; and its operating temperature range is -40°C to 70°C.

Night-time Performance

The Redvision X4 COMMANDER rugged, ball PTZ cameras have infra-red (IR) and white light illumination options, using long-life, super-efficient LEDs. DORI (Detection, Observation, Recognition and Identification) tests show that the X4 COMMANDER performs up to 500m.

The X4 COMMANDER has Osram adaptive illumination, automatically adjusting IR and white light intensity in proportion to zoom and scene content. This feature ensures scene images are well-lit, but not bleached by over-exposure.
White light can be switched on as a visual deterrent to intruders.

Branding and Custom Colours

The X4 COMMANDER Bispectral rugged, ball PTZ camera range is available in light grey (RAL 7035) or black (RAL 9005) powder-coat paint as standard. However, the cameras can also be ordered in any matt or gloss RAL colour. Customers simply specify the colour they require and all the X4 COMMANDER camera’s external, zinc-plated parts, including standoff, wall and swan mounting brackets, are painted to order. The powder-coat paint gives a robust, light-stable finish.

Our colour service means X4 COMMANDER cameras can be visually sympathetic to their environment, whether used on listed buildings and heritage sites or the latest architectural structures and designs.
