Major data-quality audit of the remaining small/mid brands, removal of fabricated data, and large expansions. 1,900 → 1,922 cameras, 75 → 71 brands.

Audit — 48 small/mid brands verified against official sources

  • Verified every model of 48 previously-unaudited brands against official manufacturer sources.
  • Removed 143 entries: 55+ fabricated "ghost" model numbers (real product families with invented model codes that 404 on the manufacturer site), Swann NVR kits + out-of-scope analog cams, and regional/colour duplicates.
  • 6 brands were entirely fabricated and removed: Sunell, Zebronics, Cathexis (a VMS-only vendor that makes no cameras), Secureye, KBVision — and Hi-Focus (rebuilt from real models, below).
  • Corrected dozens of type / megapixels values, replaced bare-homepage sources with verified URLs, stamped last_verified on all survivors.

Rebuilds & additions

  • Hi-Focus rebuilt (0 → 60) from real hifocuscctv.com models (OEM noted: Dahua/Uniview).
  • New brand NetCamCenter (2) — Bosch FLEXIDOME multi 7000i OEM panoramic domes.
  • Dahua +22 (WizSense/WizMind/WizColor/TiOC).
  • Hikvision +32 (ColorVu 3.0 / Smart Hybrid Light + AcuSense/TandemVu/PanoVu IP PTZ).
  • HiLook +11 (PTZ-N2C/N2D, IPC value line, ColorVu HAA-LU).

Scope — analog Turbo HD (opt-in)

  • Added Hikvision Turbo HD analog cameras (connectivity: coax, 4-in-1 TVI/AHD/CVI/CVBS, no ONVIF/RTSP), each flagged "NOT an IP camera".

All entries pass the schema build; QA gate clean on every audited/added brand.

Closes #53, #54, #56, #57, #58, #59, #60, #61, #62, #63, #64, #65, #66, #67, #68, #69, #71, #74, #75, #76, #78, #79, #80, #81, #82, #83, #85, #86, #87, #88, #89, #90, #91, #92, #93, #94, #95, #96, #97, #98, #99, #100, #101, #102, #103, #104, #106, #108

Partially addresses #28 (full-catalogue audit). The two giants — #53 Bosch (160) and #54 Hikvision (existing 136 unaudited entries) — are intentionally left for a dedicated follow-up.

Audited VIGI, Lorex, Ubiquiti, Blink, Wyze, GeoVision, Swann, Milesight,
Vivotek, Pelco, Google Nest, HiLook, Uniview, Tiandy, Lupus (292 cameras)
against manufacturer sources.

- Removed 68 entries: 55 fabricated/ghost model numbers, 6 Swann NVR
  kits + HiLook analog cams (out of scope), 7 regional duplicates.
- Corrected form-factor types and megapixel values on ~40 entries.
- Added missing RTSP configs (VIGI blue_iris, Lorex Connect-series) and
  replaced bare-homepage sources with verified official URLs.
- Stamped last_verified on all survivors; QA gate + schema build pass.

Dataset: 1900 -> 1832 cameras.
Audited the remaining small/mid unaudited brands (TVT, Synology, FLIR,
Mobotix, Yale, Luma, Intelbras, Netatmo, March Networks, LaView, Camius,
Hive, Qubo, Godrej, ADT, Verkada, Steinel, Somfy, IDIS, i-PRO, Aqara,
Bosch Smart Home, Kasa, Honeywell, SimpliSafe, and others) against
manufacturer sources.

- Removed 75 entries, including 6 entirely fabricated brands whose model
  numbers do not exist at the manufacturer (Hi-Focus, Sunell, Zebronics,
  Cathexis, Secureye, KBVision).
- Corrected ~20 form-factor types and ~20 megapixel values.
- Replaced bare-homepage sources with verified product/spec URLs.
- Stamped last_verified on all survivors; QA gate + schema build pass.

Dataset: 1832 -> 1757 cameras, 75 -> 69 brands.
- New brand NetCamCenter (2 models): NDM-7702-A / NDM-7703-AL, both
  Bosch FLEXIDOME multi 7000i multi-imager panoramic domes (OEM noted).
- Repopulated Hi-Focus with 60 real models sourced from hifocuscctv.com
  (current PTZ/dome/turret/bullet, Wi-Fi/4G, and discontinued lines),
  replacing the fabricated entries removed earlier. OEM origin noted per
  model (Dahua / Uniview) with matching RTSP configs.
- Set canonical Lorex Connect-X product URLs as sources.

All new entries pass the QA gate + schema build. 1757 -> 1819 cameras,
69 -> 71 brands.
Added current-range Dahua network cameras sourced from securitywholesalers.com.au
product pages: WizSense Starlight and Smart Dual Light turrets/bullets/domes
(3866/3867 families), WizMind AI (5842, 12MP 71242H Ultra), WizColor
(HDW2549), and two dual-sensor TiOC panoramic PTZs (SDT3E410, SDT4E425).
Housing-colour and regional-lens duplicate listings were skipped. Native
Dahua RTSP configs; all pass QA + schema build.

1819 -> 1841 cameras.
- Hikvision: ColorVu Gen2 / ColorVu 3.0 / Smart Hybrid Light turrets,
  bullets and domes (2347/2367/2387/2187/2687/2H87 families), including two
  dual-head 180-degree panoramic turrets (2367G2P, 2387G2P).
- HiLook: PTZ-N2C mini-PT and PTZ-N2D TandemVu dual-lens PT cameras,
  IPC value-line dome/turret (D121H-M, D150H-M, T241H-C), and ColorVu 3.0
  active-deterrence HAA-LU bullets/turret (2MP per Hikvision datasheet).

Native Hikvision RTSP configs; all new entries pass QA + schema build.
Existing unaudited Hikvision entries' QA gaps are unchanged (giant TBD).

1841 -> 1865 cameras.
Per request, expand scope to include analog Turbo HD cameras (4-in-1
switchable TVI/AHD/CVI/CVBS over coax, connectivity: coax, no ONVIF/RTSP):

- DS-2AE analog PTZ speed domes (4/5/7-inch, 15x/25x/32x, 2MP & 4MP,
  IR up to 150m).
- DS-2CE Smart-Hybrid dual-light (LFS/LMFS/LPFS) bullets/turrets (2MP D0T
  and 3K K0T) with audio-over-coax mic.
- DS-2CE H0T (5MP, PoC) and U0T/U1T (4K/8MP EXIR) fixed and motorized
  bullets/turrets/vandal dome.

Each flags "NOT an IP camera" and lists the 4-in-1 signal formats in
features. All new entries carry last_verified and pass the schema build.
Pre-existing unaudited Hikvision entries are unchanged.

1865 -> 1899 cameras.
- IP network PTZ: DS-2DE7A/4A AcuSense DarkFighter speed domes (2/4/6/8MP,
  15x-32x, IR to 200m, active deterrence), DS-2SE4C TandemVu dual-channel
  (ColorVu bullet + IR PTZ), DS-2SF8C PanoVu multi-channel domes (panoramic
  + 42x/48x laser PTZ to 500m), DS-2SE4C425MWG-4G (cellular), and older
  DS-2DE4A IW-DE / DS-2DE4825WG-E3 indoor. Native Hikvision RTSP configs.
- Analog Ultra-series: DS-2CE ultra-low-light bullets/box (D9T/U8T,
  motorized zoom, heater, PoC) — HD-TVI + CVBS over coax, flagged not-IP.

All new entries pass the schema build; IP models pass the QA gate.

1899 -> 1922 cameras.

Bosch audit complete — the last giant. Audited all 160 Bosch entries against boschsecurity.com: removed 6 fabricated ghosts (incl. a VG4-A-PSU0 power-supply mislabelled as a camera) + 1 mounting-variant duplicate, fixed 7 form-factor types (multi-imager NDM/NMM → panoramic; F360 → panoramic; DINION bullets mistyped as AUTODOME PTZ), 3 megapixel values and 5 model names, reclassified a legacy analog MIC 550, added the missing Blue Iris profile to 134 entries, upgraded sources, and stamped every survivor. Both giants (Hikvision + Bosch) are done — the entire dataset is now audited. Dataset: 1,896 cameras / 71 brands.
