Why Choose Hikvision CCTV Cameras?
Reliability And Quality
When it comes to security, you need a system you can trust.
Hikvision builds its products to last. You can trust them to ensure your property is always protected.
Affordability
Despite their advanced features and high reliability, Hikvision CCTV systems are remarkably affordable.
However, cost-effectiveness doesn’t mean cutting corners. Hikvision maintains high standards while keeping prices competitive.
Advanced Features
Hikvision CCTV systems come packed with advanced features that set them apart.
The AI capability of the AcuSense range is especially impressive and a firm favourite with our customers.
What Is AcuSense?
Hikvision’s AcuSense technology uses deep-learning algorithms in security cameras and video recorders. It detects humans and vehicles in real-time and sends instant notifications to your mobile device.
AcuSense reduces false alarms caused by animals, leaves, rain, and other moving objects. This helps you focus on real threats.
How Does AcuSense Work?
Hikvision AcuSense features two key technologies:
- Classified Object Detection: Deep-learning algorithms classify objects into three categories. These are ‘humans’, ‘vehicles’, and ‘other’. The system will send you real-time alerts based on the objects you’ve classified in the settings.
- Self-Learning Analytics: Real-world environments often include objects not covered by initial training samples. Hikvision’s Self-Learning Analytics improve accuracy over time. You can mark false alarms, and the system learns to reduce future errors.
What Does AcuSense Make Possible?
Hikvision AcuSense performs four main functions:
- Motion Detection 2.0: Automatically responds to humans and vehicles in the camera’s view. It’s on by default and generates fewer false alarms than traditional motion detection.
- Perimeter-Protection Analytics: Detects trespassers at perimeters and sends instant alerts. You can set custom detection areas and rules.
- Live Guard: Reacts to trespassing with a flashing light and a customisable siren. Live Guard warns intruders that they are being watched.
- Quick Target Search: This feature sorts video clips into ‘Person Files’ and ‘Vehicle Files.’ You can quickly find your clips by category, time, or location.
Which Products Come Equipped With AcuSense?
Hikvision’s AcuSense AI-powered security is available in the following product lines:
- Network Cameras: Pro series with AcuSense
- PTZ Cameras: Pro series with AcuSense
- Network Video Recorders: Pro Series with AcuSense
