ULTRA-LOW LIGHT
With the deepening of security awareness and the building boom of safe cities, high-quality video security has become a basic requirement. Since night hours make up almost half of the security recording, and since most crime happens at night, improving low-light video quality is the most critical problem in the Hikvision video security industry today.
DarkFighter – Stunning color video in near darkness Featuring a large HD progressive scan CMOS sensor, Hikvision’s DarkFighter Technology captures excellent color imaging in extremely dark environments – even down to 0.002 lux – and automatically switches to monochrome by removing the IR filter to boost sensitivity when illumination is lower than 0.002 lux.
All the while, DarkFighter maintains superlative image quality. DarkFighterX – Dual-sensor imaging for full color images DarkFighterX’s technology is based on the retinal imaging that human eyes use to process color and brightness. This human-like technology features an innovative dual-sensor design – one sensor for IR imaging that guarantees image brightness, the other sensor for visible light that guarantees vivid color. These signals are then combined into one bright, full-color image. DarkFighter & DarkFighterX
HIKVISION ACUSENSE
A sense of safety is one of the most basic human needs, and that goes for both personal and property safety. And this is exactly why people install security systems in their homes and businesses.
Compared to conventional sensor-based alarm systems, a video-based security system that utilizes cameras has several advantages: the ability to watch events in real-time over the live feed, capture critical data around those events, and provide solid and accurate evidence for law enforcement.
AcuSense technology adds a touch of intelligence to Hikvision’s popular cameras and video recorders, making them perfect for an accessible and intelligent security system. Based on Deep Learning technology, AcuSense helps you focus on human and vehicle events in two ways: alarms will only trigger when the preset type of intrusion takes place, and video footage is sorted by target-type categories for easier searching through recorded footage.Strobe light and audio alarms serve as virtual security guards, protecting users from potential risks by warding off intruders. When emergencies occur, related videos are classified into human and vehicle categories for quick search and retrieval.
Sophisticated, highly effective, and affordable, the AcuSense solution provides SMB owners and operators an intelligent and easy-to-use protection system for their property and assets, while helping resellers build a uniquely competitive go-to-market proposition.
HIKVISION COLORVU
Darkness provides cover for theft, trespassing, and other crimes. When incidents occur at night, dim, low-quality images from conventional cameras miss or lose critical details. Cameras with infrared LEDs are able to provide extra light for clearer image, but in black-and-white.
But now, imagine capturing vivid, colorful details – such as the color of people’s clothing or of a car – even in total darkness. Hikvision ColorVu Technology makes this possible.
Hikvision ColorVu Technology enables front-end products to capture details in low light with three advantages: advanced hardware, superior ISP algorithm, and reliable quality control. ColorVu technology employs two specific breakthroughs in hardware technology: advanced lenses and powerful sensors. These lenses reach up to F1.0, allowing more light to enter and thereby increasing image brightness. Next, high-sensitivity sensors vastly improve the utilization of that light. The frontier ISP algorithm realizes precise color rendition to produce accurate colorful images. Moreover, active alignment technology guarantees the focusing performance of lenses in the mass production of ultra-high definition ColorVu products, resulting in superlative quality control.
Extreme light conditions are also taken into consideration in the design process. Some cameras are equipped with warm, natural-looking supplemental lighting. This way, when there is no light source whatsoever – even starlight or street lights – they can guarantee colorful imaging. For most scenes, the environmental light is bright enough for ColorVu cameras to render vivid color without supplemental lighting.
LIGHTFIGHTER 140 dB WDR
Hikvision is set to reach new heights in extremely high contrast imaging with the ultra-high 140 dB WDR “LightFighter” technology for exceptional, industry-leading visibility in brightly lit or high-contrast environments. The result of this cutting-edge advancement is crystal-clear, detail-rich images with true color reproduction in lighting conditions that would defeat conventional WDR technology.
The key to the performance of the LightFighter technology is the industry-leading WDR system that allows cameras to record greater scene details even where the intensity of illumination varies considerably, such as backlighting when very dark and very bright areas appear simultaneously in the field of view. The 140 dB WDR in the LightFighter offers 100 times more powerful enhancement than the conventional 120 dB WDR systems.
LightFighter is particularly suited to intense backlight situations, and is the ideal technology for cameras pointing towards windows and entrance doors.
4K
With the development of 4K technology quickly coming into focus, opportunities to use this technology in security will continue to grow. As a leading IoT solution provider with video as its core competency, Hikvision has paid close attention to the rise of 4K and has launched a total 4K system to harness this technology in the global security industry.
Without complementary 4K components, such as monitors and NVRs, 4K cameras cannot be used to their full potential, and therefore have little practical use in security applications.
By building a total system – complete with cameras, NVRs, etc. – Hikvision strives to provide a system that is more helpful and more useful to its customers. The Hikvision 4K system, which comes equipped with a variety of smart functions, satisfies the security industry’s need for advanced analytics with ultra-high resolution video.
Recently, Hikvision has released an 8K camera which monitors large scenes over long distances. This one camera does the work that once required several cameras, thus reducing installation and maintenance costs.
