Dahua DH-IPC-EBW81242-AS-S2 Security Camera | 12MP Fisheye 360° Panoramic, Heat Map, People Counting, IVS Tripwire & Intrusion, IP67/IK10

The Dahua DH-IPC-EBW81242-AS-S2 is a high-resolution 12MP fisheye 360° panoramic IP camera designed to deliver total situational awareness from a single mounting point. Panoramic cameras are ideal when you need wide-area coverage without installing multiple cameras. This fisheye camera supports advanced analytics including people counting in multiple areas, queuing management, heat map generation (exportable), and track map insights for understanding movement patterns. With Dahua IVS (Intelligent Video Surveillance) functions such as tripwire and intrusion detection, plus strong imaging tools like 120dB WDR and 3D DNR, it suits busy indoor and outdoor environments such as shopping centres, airports, banks, hotels, lobbies, and large open plan spaces.

360° Coverage From One Camera Fisheye lens delivers panoramic visibility, reducing blind spots and the need for multiple cameras.
Heat Map + People Counting Generate exportable heat maps and count people across multiple areas for retail and operations insights.
IVS Smart Detection Tripwire and intrusion rules for proactive alerts, plus abnormality detection for system health and event reliability.
Rugged, Install-Friendly 12V DC or PoE, MicroSD up to 256GB, audio and alarm I/O, plus IP67 and IK10 protection.
Best results come from correct placement: fisheye cameras are powerful, but performance depends on ceiling height, target distances, and how you de-warp the view (panorama, quad view, or corridor outputs). If you want reliable people counting and heat maps, we help tune counting zones, dwell-time thresholds and analytics schedules. For Melbourne site advice, use the contact page.

Key Features & Benefits

Panoramic Analytics
1 Replace Multiple Cameras With One
A single fisheye provides wide-area coverage for open lobbies, retail floors, reception areas and hallways, reducing camera count and installation points.
2 Heat Maps That Turn Footfall Into Insights
Adjust people count and time thresholds to generate heat maps that can be exported, helping you understand where visitors spend time.
3 IVS Tripwire & Intrusion Alerts
Dahua IVS functions like tripwire and intrusion detection turn wide coverage into actionable alerts across key boundaries.
4 Bandwidth & Storage Efficient
H.265 plus Smart coding (H.264+/H.265+) and ROI provide flexible bitrate control for different bandwidth and retention environments.

What is a Fisheye 360° Camera?

Fisheye Explained

A fisheye camera uses an ultra-wide lens to capture a full 360° scene from a single point, typically mounted on a ceiling. In playback or live view, the image can be de-warped into panorama, quad, or region views for easier monitoring. This makes fisheye cameras a strong choice for wide-open environments where conventional cameras would leave blind spots or require multiple angles.

1 Total Situational Awareness
Capture activity across a wide horizontal area to track people and vehicles without constant PTZ movement.
2 Better Operations Visibility
People counting, queuing insights, track maps and heat maps support staffing decisions, layout improvements and safety.
3 Smarter Alerts With IVS Rules
Tripwire and intrusion detection rules help monitor restricted areas and after-hours boundaries more effectively.
4 Rugged for Public Spaces
IP67 and IK10 ratings make it suitable for public-facing and high-risk locations when installed correctly.

Ideal Melbourne Applications

Best-Fit Sites
1 Retail Stores & Shopping Centres
Ideal for floor coverage, entry observation, footfall analytics and heat map insights without multiple cameras.
2 Hotels, Lobbies & Reception Areas
One ceiling-mounted fisheye provides broad visibility to support safety, incident review and visitor flow monitoring.
3 Airports, Stations & Public Facilities
Designed for wide scenes and high traffic. IK10/IP67 protection supports demanding environments.
4 Banks, Offices & Secure Interiors
Use IVS tripwire/intrusion to secure zones and combine with de-warping views for practical monitoring.
