AI functions

Innovative AcuSense technology based on self-learning artificial intelligence algorithms that can filter out 98% of false alarms. The camera, thanks to the classification of objects, is able to determine whether a human or vehicle has been detected and can filter out events caused by animals, weather conditions, light, and even falling leaves. Classifying the device as a false alarm, it improves the recipient's work.
AI functions that handle the event data:

Perimeter functions / Perimeter protection:

Monitoring of areas requiring protection and information in the event of an intrusion. When entering the designated area or crossing the designated line, the classification of the object begins, if the system detects that it is a person or a vehicle, an alarm is triggered, otherwise it is ignored.

Face recognition

Each face model is compared with the photos stored in the database for identification purposes, which can be used to authorize entry to rooms with restricted access. Authentication is successful when the face is recognized.

Motion detection (human / vehicle)

Motion detection based on object recognition- This technology has an algorithm that first classifies objects (human / vehicle) and the detection takes place in the second stage, which allows for proper alarming regardless of the type of platform that will receive the already developed alarm information, be it IVMS 4200, HikCentral or other Hikvision software. Thanks to the motion detection 2.0 function, we can count on high accuracy and efficiency of alarming based on not only line intersection, intrusion into a zone, but also during the detection of standard motion detection, which allows for easier alarm configuration. It is not necessary to draw lines, determine the minimum and maximum size of objects, etc. It is enough to draw a standard motion detection grid (activity mask) and define what type of objects are to be analyzed by the device (vehicle)

Image correction functions

• 3D DNR -DNR is a system that allows you to electronically minimize the noise in an image. It is based on dynamic real-time regulation, constantly reacting to changing conditions.

• WDR 120dB- (Wide Dynamic Range) - The wide dynamic range of the image is a system with which it is possible to observe a complex scene while maintaining the transparency of all image planes.

RoI (Region of interest)

It is an intelligent codec that allows you to improve the quality of selected image fragments and to reduce the quality of other fragments. This has a positive effect on the use of the computing power of the signal processor, reduces the requirements for network bandwidth and improves the identification of only the most sensitive points.

Privacy masks

It is a function that allows individual adjustment of the way the observation system operates to the spatial specificity and safety requirements of a specific installation site. Thanks to the privacy mask system, it is possible to freely determine the fragments of the image that will be excluded from the video surveillance.

24/7 IP monitoring

Thanks to the efficient infrared illuminator built into the DS-2CD1043G0-I(C) dome camera, the device is suitable for uninterrupted observation 24 hours a day. The system installed in the device, based on powerful IR EXIR diodes, generates a strong beam of infrared light, which perfectly illuminates the entire area covered by video monitoring and makes the recorded image clear and legible. Contrary to standard radiators, the lighting in the Black Glass technology is evenly distributed over the entire observation plan, which prevents the image from being overexposed in the foreground. When the camera detects changes in the level of illumination of the lens working area, it will automatically activate the illuminator, which ensures trouble-free image capture at a maximum distance of 30 meters. In addition, the camera uses a mechanical ICR infrared filter, thanks to which it is possible to capture the optimal values ​​of light reaching the camera sensor.

Robust camera construction

The use of the external Easy IP Lite+ camera  DS-2CD1043G0-I(C) will allow us to create a professional monitoring structure that will continuously function both inside and outside the protected facilities. The robust workmanship and high resistance of the camera guarantee uninterrupted operation of the device even in the most demanding installation environments. In addition, the high quality of the housing confirms that the device has been given the IP67 protection class. The camera is resistant to possible interference of solids and maintains its functionality even in the event of a momentary contact with a strong stream of water. Dust-proof, impact-resistant, as well as various mounting options guarantee that the Hikvision CCTV camera with a 2.8 mm lens will perfectly fit into any working environment

Signal transmission and power supply with one cable - PoE

Power over Ethernet is a solution designed for quick and easy installation of network devices, comfortable operation of the equipment and easy modernization of the installation. Thanks to PoE support in the 802.3af standard, it will be possible to connect an IP camera using the popular UTP twisted-pair cable. The saving of the total number of cables necessary to start the device improves the monitoring system and allows the location of the camera away from traditional mains power sources.

Innovative codec - Hikvision H.265+

H.265 + is a video coding system that is an extension of the technology used in H.265 / HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding). The H.265 + system is the latest version of the codecs used in monitoring, which is based on an intelligent algorithm developed by the Hikvision company. H.265 signal encoding is a remarkable technology that allows you to optimize the basic functions of the camera and enables better use of network bandwidth, significantly reduces interference and guarantees long archiving times without compromising image quality. Field tests show that H.265 + compression reduces the required level of high definition video bitrate by approximately 67% compared to H.265, thus reducing the required bandwidth and storage / HDD capacity. Reducing the number of bits means lowering costs for consumers as well as increasing the efficiency, stability and reliability of all equipment in a given surveillance system. The use of the H.265+ codec brings the most spectacular results in images where the background remains unchanged and rarely changes; in the case of objects moving on a stagnant scene and with 24-hour surveillance.
