The Stack DVR is housed inside a ruggedised and sealed enclosure, specifically designed and manufactured to protect the unit in harsh and extreme environments.
Sealed to IP67 with an operating temperature range of -20C to +70C, the unit is compact and durable with no moving parts (other than the sealed flash card access door), making it capable of operating where normal VCRs or DV recorders are not.
Recording in harsh environments, such as continual shock and vibration and extreme climate conditions is now entirely possible, making it ideal for all mobile and on-vehicle video-recording applications.
A data overlay feature is provided enabling date and time to be stamped onto the footage.
Recordings can be archived direct to DVD for playback on either a PC or a DVD player.
The Stack DVR can be used as a stand-alone harsh environment Digital Video Recorder, for use with other video systems.
Stack can also supply the DVR with a video kit incorporating a miniature bullet CCD camera and even a full, Synchronised Video-Logger System, complete with modular data acquisition equipment from 8 to 256 channels.
