*AXIS Q6411-LE Bispectral PTZ Camera will be available through Axis distribution channels in Q4 2025.
AXIS P1475/85-LE and AXIS P1487/88-LE Bullet Cameras
Robust AI-powered bullet cameras offer unmatched performance
These four next-generation, AI-powered bullet cameras offer outstanding image quality and forensic details. AXIS P1475-LE and AXIS P1485-LE offer 2 MP, while AXIS P1487-LE and AXIS P1488-LE, offer 5 MP and 8 MP, respectively. In addition, AXIS P1488-LE includes a large 1/1.2″ sensor to ensure consistent performance even in low light.
These powerful cameras come with OptimizedIR for surveillance in pitch darkness up to 50 m (164 ft). Furthermore, Axis Zipstream with support for AV1, H.264, and H.265 significantly lowers bandwidth and storage requirements and cost without compromising image quality. Built on ARTPEC-9, these cameras offer accelerated performance and make it possible to run impressive analytics applications on the edge. For example, they come with AXIS Object Analytics preinstalled to detect, classify, track, and count humans, vehicles, and types of vehicles.

AXIS D6310 Air Quality Sensor
Advanced, standalone air quality sensor for indoor environmental monitoring and alerts
The AXIS D6310 Air Quality Sensor is a standalone device that helps monitor and manage indoor environments by detecting a range of air pollutants, including vaping and smoking. When thresholds are exceeded, it can trigger automated responses for immediate action.
Built on AXIS OS and an open platform, it integrates easily with Axis devices via edge-to-edge pairing and supports third-party systems for flexible deployment. It features PoE passthrough, a built-in speaker and microphone for two-way communication, and preinstalled AXIS Audio Analytics for AI-based insights. It’s also compatible with AXIS Audio Manager Pro for zone-based scheduling and content delivery.
Data is accessible in real time via a virtual stream, allowing users to view live measurements through a web browser or VMS—no additional licenses or processing fees required. This supports compliance with vaping and smoking regulations and enables long-term, data-informed decision-making. With privacy in mind, both the microphone and audio analytics can be permanently disabled. The device is IK08-rated, vandal-resistant, and includes a PIR sensor for presence detection along with four multicolor LEDs for instant visual alerts.

AXIS D2122/23-VE Radars
Multi-layered solutions offer accurate AI-powered classification across expansive areas
AXIS D2122-VE Radar offers a wide 180° horizontal field of detection and is ideal for mounting on walls or fence lines. It can recognize humans at a distance up to 140 m (460 ft) in an area of 20,000 m2 (215,300 ft2). The other product, AXIS D2123-VE Radar, offers an astounding 270° horizontal field of detection and can recognize humans in an area of 30,000 m2 (323,000 ft2). It’s ideal for mounting on poles or corners. Both radars use unique box-shaped detection and recognition zones to simplify coverage planning and system design.
These radars work either as standalone devices or integrated with selected ARTPEC-9 PTZ cameras, providing seamless operations with accurate visual verification and automatic tracking. This integration also enables radar-video fusion technology, where AI-powered radar analytics are combined with video analytics in the PTZ camera to minimize false alarms. The two devices are integrated through edge-to-edge radar pairing, and all configurations are handled through the PTZ camera. Therefore, only one IP address and one VMS license are needed. It’s also possible to set up double-knock verification, where both radar and video analytics need to confirm the detection and classification before triggering an event. This multi-layered approach results in maximum efficiency with more enriched data and better decision-making tools for security guards and operating personnel.
Key features include:
- Outstanding 180°/270° horizontal field of detection
- Classify objects over expansive areas
- Box-shaped detection and recognition zones for efficient coverage
- Deep integration with selected PTZ cameras
- Possibility for radar-video fusion technology
