IC Realtime has recently developed the new EFFIO™ DSP line of cameras. The XL8 (CCD Box Style) camera, utilize Sony's new EFFIO chipset capable of achieving 700TVL horizontal lines and 960 horizontal pixels @ 18MHz. This represents the latest technology in camera development in manufacturing today.

Color reproduction is enhanced through the cameras DSP chips. The 3DNR feature produces un-blurred recorded videos of moving objects.

XL8 camera has dual stage Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) cameras with full OSD, RS485, True Day/Night function. The cameras are capable of operating at a low lux level of 0.0001. S/N ratio.

The XL-8 has a sensitivity improvement of a minimum of +4dB, a significant improvement when compared to the current HAD technology sensors.
