With significant R&D investment, Hikvision is advancing several core technologies, covering multi-dimensional perception, artificial intelligence, and big data, as well as imaging technologies, cloud computing, and video codec.
Imaging and video related technologies remain very important for Hikvision, and we have been leading the industry in numerous areas, including high definition, and low-light imaging, as well as image defogging, smart rapid focus, and image stabilization among others.
Besides visible light imaging, Hikvision is extending its machine perception technologies to the full electromagnetic spectrum. Varying in wavelength and frequency, electromagnetic waves can extend from visible light to both ends of the known spectrum. Hikvision has developed innovative products and applications powered by thermal imaging, multispectral imagery, radar sensing, and so on. We are also exploring multiple machine perception technologies that pick up X-rays, infrared rays, milllimetre waves, sound waves, and temperature variations, etc.

AI analytics refers to a subset of artificial intelligence that uses machine learning to gain insights, find patterns, and discover relationships in the data. In practice, it is the process of automating the analysis that a human would normally perform.
In the field of physical security, AI analytics uses powerful algorithms to automate detection, categorisation, and analysis of objects and motions in a camera’s view. It reduces costs, speeds up responses, and facilitates new practices and processes.
In dark locations or when night falls, the vast majority of conventional cameras lose their ability to render colour, relying instead on stark supplementary lighting or infrared to mimic daylight. The results? Images and footage from your security system lose colour and critical details and litter the video screen with digital noise.
To remedy this problem, Hikvision offers cameras that “see” clearly and render in colour what others can only do in black and white, thanks to its innovative DarkFighterX and ColorVu technologies.
Hikvision offers an all-encompassing 8K solution from front-end products such as cameras and LED displays to back-end devices, offering customers an extremely clear and detailed visual experience in all kinds of scenarios.
The LED display products provide a more vivid – even stunning – visual experience, while 8K cameras and 8K NVRs are used in both indoor and outdoor spaces such as public halls, squares, stadiums, stations, etc., where wider angles of view, and sharper, more detailed images are required. They empower users from all kinds of industries with the capacity to zoom into large scenes to view exact details without quality loss.
Image capturing simulates our sense of sight, extending the power of people’s eyes. But what if we could use other “senses” as well – hearing, smelling, heat sensing, or other machine perception capabilities that are beyond visual range?
Actually, visible light only accounts for a small segment of the full electromagnetic spectrum. Varying in wavelength and frequency, electromagnetic waves can extend from visible light to both ends of the known spectrum.
Hikvision has explored multi-dimensional perception technologies that pick up X-rays, infrared rays, millimetre waves, sound waves, temperature variations, and more, taking machine perception capabilities to a new level and making them more powerful – “sensing” the outside environment, identifying events, and providing more detailed information. This creates more possibilities for machine perception to be used in ever wider scenarios and applications.
Getting clear views over a large area – such as a major traffic intersection, a manufacturing warehouse, or a parking lot – isn't always a simple task. It typically calls for multiple cameras and extensive cabling to be installed in numerous locations in order to monitor the entire field of view. However, such a setup requires increased purchasing costs, installation time, management, and maintenance.
One way around this is to integrate two or more types of imaging lenses into a single camera. This kind of multi-lens camera can simultaneously deliver both panoramas and detailed, zoomed-in views of the same large site.
The need to capture expansive views with zoomed-in details drives innovative security technology companies like Hikvision to continuously create new types of camera. A great example is its TandemVu camera line, featuring a fixed lens for the big picture and a PTZ or bullet camera for zoomed-in details. And it’s all built into one powerful unit.
Most cameras we see today are static cameras covering a fixed scene, and their fields of view are usually limited. That means cameras can lose sight of things at the edges of their field of view. Conversely, the use of PTZ cameras cannot guarantee a comprehensive view, especially when it starts to pan, tilt, or zoom in to check on moving objects. This is when "blind spots" occur.
But now, TandemVu, Hikvision's next-generation camera design, integrates multiple lenses into one unit to provide the big picture and small details in tandem, boasting reliable and even greater security performance.
As its name implies, TandemVu employs two security camera approaches that can be viewed simultaneously. TandemVu Cameras combine two or more lenses into one unit. More specifically, the upper lens is fixed to provide a big picture of the targeted security zone at all times, while the bottom lens can pan, tilt, and/or zoom in on small details. During the zooming process, users will continue to maintain both viewpoints for maximum security with complete situational awareness.
Today's security market sees a trend toward higher resolution and better image quality. However, higher resolution requires more network bandwidth and storage space. For example, 8K cameras, which are becoming the norm nowadays, produce 16 times the data of a 1080p camera, straining the capacity and bandwidth of the storage infrastructure. Beyond streaming video, camera-based analytics create a large metadata database over time that drives high transaction volume. Therefore, bandwidth and storage systems must deliver extraordinary performance to keep up with 8K video.
As your business grows so will the volume of your everyday data. If you are already struggling with bandwidth and storage issues, it's time to take a look at Hikvision's H.265+ compression, direct streaming, smooth streaming, and scheduled backup technologies, which will keep your security system up and running smoothly and cost-effectively.
Hikvision’s IVaaS Technology links previously separated CCTV and intrusion alarm systems together in one platform, sending a 7-second video clip via email or app in the event of an alarm for timely confirmation – 5 seconds of footage pre-alarm, and 2 seconds post-alarm. The technology enables extracting live video streams directly from the alarm control panel, with which cameras are connected.
Traditional intrusion alarm systems don’t have a verification process. Alarms can be triggered by causes other than actual intruders. Responding to these false alarms can place a huge burden on home or business owners. And, due to high false alarm rates, law enforcement officers simply cannot prioritise timely responses. Through a verification process, Hikvision’s IVaaS Technology removes the guessing game in determining what caused an intrusion.
In conventional analogue systems, electrical engineers must install electrical wiring before cameras can be installed, which requires a lot of time and effort. Separate power lines, electrical sockets, ground wires, and more all add up to a considerable part of a system’s budget.
PoC, or Power over Coax (coaxial cabling) technology, utilizes a single coaxial cable to transmit both data and power between front-end cameras and back-end video recorders (DVRs), as opposed to using one cable to send power to a camera and another one to transmit data back to recording units.
Based on standard protocol, Hikvision’s PoC technology features long transmission distance. It reduces time and costs on the electrical “prep” work by using plug-and-play products, so camera access and power are available right away. The excellent stability also makes backing up the DVRs and cameras possible by way of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). PoC technology is widely used in scenarios such as buildings, stores, classrooms, gyms, and gardens, for both new installations and upgrades or renovations with legacy systems.
