Hikvision has introduced its ProAV offering, assembling an extensive range of audiovisual products along with unified management platforms. This new venture aims to facilitate a streamlined approach to project planning, integration, deployment, and ongoing operation. By doing so, Hikvision ProAV intends to minimise unnecessary complexities and promote cohesive user experiences within various spaces.
According to Wenson Zhou, Product Marketing Director at Hikvision, "For many integrators, a major challenge in an audiovisual project is not any single product, but coordinating the different elements involved. Hikvision ProAV brings together broader audiovisual capabilities and supporting resources to help partners manage this complexity more efficiently and create better experiences for users."
Local device management
The ProAV suite addresses a comprehensive range of audiovisual needs, covering visual, interactive, and audio requirements for diverse projects. The unified management platforms, HikCentral and HikMedio, provide centralised and cloud-based device management.
These enable effective monitoring, configuration, operation, and content management across both single and multiple sites. A variety of LED displays, controllers, and related software support multi-screen management and visual presentation, while WonderHub interactive displays cater to environments requiring collaboration and content presentation.
Centralised local management
The value of audiovisual technology is realised in users' visual and auditory experience
In developing the ProAV portfolio, Hikvision emphasises practical usability, focusing on how projects are planned, integrated, deployed, and managed. With core products developed in-house, partners can streamline their selection and technical coordination, reducing complexity from sourcing products of different suppliers. Post-installation, HikCentral and HikMedio tools assist in efficiently monitoring device status and managing configurations across multiple locations.
The value of audiovisual technology is realised in users' visual and auditory experiences. In various setups such as live events, classrooms, training environments, and enterprise meeting rooms, interactive displays and audio solutions foster clearer communication and collaboration. Additionally, in command centres and commercial spaces, a combination of displays and controllers assists in efficient decision-making and information dissemination, contributing to a conducive operational environment.
By simplifying the planning, integration, and management of audiovisual projects, Hikvision ProAV continues the company's endeavour to enhance technological experiences across different sectors.
Hikvision launches its ProAV offering, bringing together a broad portfolio of audiovisual products and unified management platforms. By offering partners a more coordinated approach to project planning, integration, deployment, and ongoing operation, Hikvision ProAV is designed to reduce unnecessary complexity and support more cohesive experiences for the people who use each space.
“For many integrators, a major challenge in an audiovisual project is not any single product, but coordinating the different elements involved,” said Wenson Zhou, Product Marketing Director at Hikvision. “Hikvision ProAV brings together broader audiovisual capabilities and supporting resources to help partners manage this complexity more efficiently and create better experiences for users.”
Local device management
Hikvision ProAV covers complementary capability areas, addressing the visual, interactive, and audio requirements of a wide range of projects.
- Unified management platforms: HikCentral supports centralised local device management, while HikMedio brings selected capabilities to the cloud. Together, they enable device monitoring, configuration, operation, and content creation, scheduling, and publishing across single or multiple sites.
- LED display and control: A broad selection of LED displays, LED controllers, video wall controllers, and related software supports visual presentation, signal control, and multi-screen management across projects of different scales.
- WonderHub interactive display: Designed for collaboration and content presentation, WonderHub interactive displays help users share ideas, present information, and work together in classrooms, training spaces, and enterprise environments. The broader WonderHub portfolio also supports visual communication across a variety of commercial applications.
- Professional and commercial audio: The audio product lineup supports applications ranging from sound reinforcement and conferencing to background music and other commercial audio needs, helping deliver clear and appropriate sound across different types of spaces.
Together, these product areas give partners broader choice within one portfolio. They can select and combine the technologies required for each project while considering the visual, interactive, and audio experience of the space as a whole.
Centralised local management
A broad product portfolio only creates value when it is practical to work with. Hikvision ProAV therefore focuses not only on product coverage, but also on how audiovisual projects are planned, integrated, deployed, managed, and supported.
Because the core products are all developed in-house, partners can streamline product selection and technical coordination. This can help reduce some of the complexity involved in sourcing and combining products from multiple suppliers.
Once a system is deployed, effective management becomes just as important as installation. HikCentral provides centralised local management for supported devices, while HikMedio extends selected management capabilities to the cloud. Depending on the project setup, these tools can help teams monitor device status, manage configurations, operate supported devices, and create, schedule, and publish content more efficiently across single or multiple sites.
Designed around the experience
Ultimately, audiovisual technology derives value from what people can see, hear, understand, and do within a space, with each product supporting the intended experience.
At live events, LED displays and professional audio create coordinated visual and sound experiences. In classrooms and training spaces, WonderHub interactive displays and audio products support presentations, idea sharing, and participation. In enterprise meeting rooms, interactive displays and conferencing audio enable clearer collaboration between on-site and remote participants.
Operationally demanding environments
The same principle applies in operationally demanding environments. In command centers, LED displays, controllers, video wall controllers, and software organise multiple visual sources for coordinated decision-making. In retail and commercial spaces, visual displays and commercial audio communicate information while supporting the atmosphere.
By helping simplify how audiovisual projects are planned, integrated, delivered, and managed, the launch of Hikvision ProAV marks another step in the company’s efforts to shape every experience through technology.
