The SolsticeCam™ PTZ wireless solar powered camera system is a wireless solar powered security camera that is typically used in security applications that require auto-tracking and/or the use of pan-tilt-zoom video in real-time. PTZ cameras provide field of view flexibility and include powerful zooming capabilities typically ranging from 18-36x optical zoom. PTZ cameras typically require considerably more power than fixed cameras and therefore require more solar and battery backup, thus increasing the overall cost of the solar powered system.
