Scharfe-Sicht GmbH and SharPcam

SharPcam is the camera and recording-system brand of Scharfe-Sicht GmbH, a technology company headquartered in Essen, Germany. The company brings hardware, software development and system integration together.

The portfolio connects SharPcam capture and recording with 365 software for video management, device integration, vehicle access, visitor-flow analysis and workforce management.

We design and engineer our products and develop our software. We have several factories for manufacturing in China, Vietnam and South Korea.

AI functions depend on the selected camera, recorder, software version and project configuration. Consult each product specification for where processing runs and which functions are supported. German company headquarters and engineering do not imply that every hardware product is manufactured in Germany.

Our SharPcam AI profiles: A1, A2, A3 and A4

A1 — Human & vehicle classification

Our A1 profile distinguishes people and vehicles from other motion in the scene.

A2 — AI detection

Our A2 profile combines human/vehicle classification with perimeter events and face detection, depending on the model. Face detection locates a face; it does not establish its identity.

A3 — Advanced AI

Our A3 profile supports advanced analytics such as face recognition, license plate recognition, counting and searchable metadata, according to the model and firmware.

A4 — Next-generation AI

Our A4 series combines AI-ISP image processing for very low light with richer object and attribute analysis. Series capabilities include up to 80 object classes, human and vehicle attributes, fall detection, smoke/fire detection, dynamic privacy masking and searchable metadata. Exact functions depend on the model and firmware. AI-ISP improves image processing; it is not a guarantee of colour in total darkness or of every analytics function.

Choose an AI security camera for your site

SharPcam is the camera brand of Scharfe-Sicht GmbH. Start with what you need to see and the action you want to take, then compare the published camera specifications.

Which camera suits a shop, office or larger site?

Choose by the scene: a fixed view for a defined area, PTZ for directed observation, or panoramic coverage for a wider overview. Compare the lens, target distance, lighting, mounting position and indoor or outdoor requirements.

What is the difference between edge AI, recording and video management?

SharPcam captures video and runs the analytics supported by the selected model. The NVR handles recording and retention. Eye365 provides video operations and investigation; LPR365 adds plate-led vehicle workflows. Select each layer for its role.

What should I include in a camera enquiry?

Share the site type, camera count, areas to cover, target distances, night conditions and retention days. Use Product Finder to compare models and the storage calculator to estimate recording capacity before discussing the project.
