VIVOTEK and Parabit in Partnership: VIVOTEK Cameras Work Better When the Installation Is Built for the Space

If you have ever walked a site before a surveillance install, you already know how this goes.
The camera plan looks great on the drawing. Then you get to the actual doorway and realize there is no clean mounting surface. The counter is cluttered with equipment. The elevator corner is tighter than expected. The drive up lane has glare half the day. The wall location that would give the perfect angle is blocked by glass, signage, or an architectural detail no one accounted for.
It is not a camera problem. It is a placement problem.
Parabit supports VIVOTEK camera sensors with a lineup of camera housings designed for the real conditions surveillance systems are asked to operate in. The housings are built to protect the sensor, preserve the intended field of view, and deliver an installation that looks like it belongs in the environment.
In most facilities, the most important moments happen close to the camera, not far away.
Someone steps through a doorway and looks up for a second. A customer leans in at a counter. A person pauses at a turnstile. A vehicle stops in a drive up lane. These are fast moments, and they are easy to miss when the camera is forced into a overhead position.
That is why the physical mounting layer matters. It gives integrators and end users the ability to place VIVOTEK sensors where the view is useful, without improvising on site.
Parabit’s camera housings for VIVOTEK camera sensors support a wide range of applications across indoor and outdoor locations.
The lineup includes:
Doorway and Door Jamb Housings
Designed to integrate into standard door frames to support facial image capture at high traffic entry and exit points.
Height Strip Housings
Side mounted camera placement paired with a height decal to record record the height of an person with a clean aesthetic. Multi camera sensor versions are also available.
Wave to Open Switches with Optional Camera Housings
Touchless entry devices with integrated cameras, designed to reduce germ spread while capturing video at the doorway for added security.
Wall Mount Housings
Mount to any wall or junction box for a horizontal field of view in environments where space and discretion matter.
BR Glass Housings
Mount directly to bullet resistant glass at a transaction point without hardware to discreetly capture critical video at transaction points.
Counter and Turnstile Housings
Designed to capture transactional behavior and deterring fraud requires a closer, more controlled view.
Counter and Desk FDIC, NCUA, Notice Housings
Designed to mimic institutional signage while discreetly capturing transaction activity with a perfect camera view.
ATM, ITM, and Kiosk Camera Brackets
Securely mount compact cameras inside ATM / Kiosk fascias to capture clear user activity and detect fraud such as skimming or PIN harvesting.
Ceiling and Elevator Housings
Discreet overhead surveillance options that fit neatly into ceilings or elevator corners in retail, commercial, and public environments.
Biometric Reader Rear Housings
Designed to fit turnstile mounting brackets to add a rear view camera for tailgate detection and exit surveilance.
Drive Up Housings
Support license plate and driver face capture at drive up lanes, gates, and checkpoints for identity tracking, time of service and investigation support.
Retail Shelf and Merchandise Housings
Mount to shelving to provide close range monitoring of product displays, supporting facial capture, real time loss detection and investigative clarity.
Baggage Carousel Housings
Designed for surveillance in baggage claim areas, where visibility into passenger interactions and luggage collection matters.
Video Core Enclosures
Secure video cores in exposed locations to prevent tampering or accidental disconnection from power and video.
For integrators, the advantage is obvious: the housing is already engineered for the location, which means less custom work, fewer compromises, and a cleaner installation.
For end users, it means surveillance that holds up over time. Cameras stay protected, the view stays consistent, and coverage is more reliable in the spaces where activity is most concentrated.
VIVOTEK sensors are deployed across a wide range of environments, many of them public facing and in high traffic areas. Parabit housings are built for those environments, with the goal of making installation easier and surveillance more effective.
