Hikvision Introduces Four New Anti-corrosion Cameras
Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of video-surveillance products and solutions, has introduced four new anti-corrosion network cameras. Their robust housing and the proven Dark Fighter technology make the cameras ideal for use under unfavourable conditions, e.g. on the coast or at sea.
Hikvision’s offers a wide range of network cameras specially designed for the most challenging applications and conditions. The same applies to these four new cameras; the two bullet cameras (DS-2CD6626B/E-HIRA/IR5 and DS-2CD6626BS-(R), the dome camera (DS-2CD6626DS-IZ(H)S) and the PTZ (DS-2DT6223-AELY) are very suitable for use in industrial environments, on ships or on top of windmills.
The housing of the cameras has the following characteristics:
•ISO C5-M certified; suitable for industrial environments with a high air humidity and an aggressive atmosphere 
•NEMA 4X certified; protected against rain, windblown dust, splashing water, hose-directed water and external formation of ice on the enclosure
•Meets the IP67 standard; water and dust proof
•Made of 316L stainless steel.
The cameras can not only withstand all types of weather; they also continue to function optimally under the limited amounts of light often seen in unfavourable conditions. The Dark Fighter technology allows the cameras to produce a colour image in lighting conditions as low as 0,002 Lux. In addition, all four cameras are Full HD, are equipped with 120 dB wide dynamic range, and boast 128 GB of internal storage capacity.
The cameras are available now. The range is expected to expand rapidly with new solutions. All models can be found on the Hikvision website.
Hikvision brings Innovative new Technologies ‘AcuSense’ and ’ColorVu’ to Analogue
HOOFDDORP, the Netherlands — 3 May 2018 — Hikvision, the world’s leading supplier of innovative video surveillance products and solutions, has just announced the next level of analogue surveillance – introducing Deep Learning. This delivers AI via the AcuSense Turbo DVR (a world first) and vivid images 24 hours a day, via ColorVu Turbo cameras.
AcuSense technology is based on Hikvision’s Deep Learning algorithm, which first started to appear in IP products last year. Deep Learning algorithms are much deeper programming compared to conventional intelligent algorithms, which only operate on the surface level. These perform feature learning, providing astonishingly accurate and consistent video content analytics (VCA) performance.
AcuSense is able to extract human body and vehicle from a massive amount of objects. Not only can it detect human and vehicle intrusion, but it can also filter out false alarms that would have triggered by non-threatening moving objects.
The technology also brings a powerful and quick target search function that is capable of analysing recordings and picking out all human or vehicle images which link to the related video clip. This means that users are able to quickly search for a target, for example, as the system is able to extract human and vehicle information from the feed. These exciting features make the DVR more powerful and reliable than ever before.
While the AcuSense provides the brain of the system – its eyes are provided by ColorVu camera, with an advanced F1.0 large aperture lens, giving more light, brighter images and balanced exposure. With the addition of high sensitivity in ultra low light environments, the camera can provide vivid, full-colour video 24/7 in almost 90% of scenarios. What’s more, the cameras also have warm supplementary lighting and an anti-glare diffusion lens to further guarantee the vivid picture in very dark areas.
These technologies will prove handy for installers who will be able to bring a lot of the smart features to an existing system by simply replacing an older DVR with the AcuSense model. Users will find it easy to use, saving resources in both manpower and finances.
“We have been proving the value of Deep Learning in IP solutions for a while now – the next step is to bring this innovative technology to analogue users,” says Peter Guan, Channel and Marketing Director at Hikvision Europe. “This is the first time the surveillance industry has seen this quality of vivid colour in video images throughout the whole day. We think this will bring a lot of change to the analogue market.”
Samples of the first products with these technologies will be ready from end of May.
