I would like to think that Axis is a company that wishes to maintain traction in all segments of the market - I was under the impression that this is why they produce cube cameras.
Now in the residential/SMB and even medium business market, wouldn't integrated IR be an important feature to have? Axis does have a single IR integrated dome, and amongest integrated lens cameras, domes sell better then other form factors.
Npw IR doems do have technical chanllenges that need careful design to deal with, such as minimising bubble reflected IR - but surely such engineering difficulty would be just another day in the lab for a company like Axis.
So now here comes the question - Do you like IR integrated bullets and domes? Why/why not?
