New Hikvision AX PRO alarm product
New Hikvision AX PRO alarm product

Hikvision, an IoT solution provider with video as its core competency, has announced a brand-new addition to its AX PRO alarm product line: the Wireless External Tri-tech Detector and (optional) dedicated camera module. This powerful intruder detection system provides a better image, more precise detection, and a handy modular design – all working to enhance alarm system capabilities for both homeowners and small businesses. Tapping into the industry trend of using external passive infrared (PIR) detectors for video verification, the detector protects a property with innovative technology for precise detection and video verification. Tri-tech innovation reduces false alarms In these scenarios, false alarms are often triggered by anything from bad weather to leaves or branches to pets. The answer to dealing with these is to be able to identify them and ignore them as 'non-threats'. As its name suggests, a tri-tech detector uses three sensors: a PIR sensor at the top, a microwave sensor, and another PIR sensor at the bottom. This means that it can detect at various heights, with a 15m and 90° adjustable detection area, more precisely identifying what is actually triggering the alarm. Patented Independent Floating Threshold (IFT) technology allows the detectors to adjust their thresholds based on the environment infrared and background noise automatically and dynamically. This essentially reduces false alarms caused by background noise interference. The detector uses digital temperature compensation to automatically adjust the alarm threshold according to environment. This also means it is much more resilient in bad weather conditions, and enables consistent detection throughout. Any successful security systems is subject to attempts to overcome it. One of these is 'masking', where a potential criminal 'covers' the sensor(s), for example with a spray. The AX PRO device uses active IR anti-masking - the detector can initiate a mask-processing sequence to check whether it has been masked or not. The 'operator' receives an alarm and can act accordingly. And there's more The optional camera module provides GIF verification, allowing the 'operator' to see an image of an 'incident' for visual verification. The module has a 2.0mm lens with adjustable angle and can provide up to 20 images with VGA/QVGA/QQVGA formats.  Other features include: Pet immunity up to 40 kg Waterproof to IP65 standard Automatic sensitivity Easy to install and cost-effective, with no power/network cables needed. In a market where accurate intruder alerting is exploding and verification is becoming more important, the Tri-tech Detector can provide an innovative solution in a wide range of scenarios.

Hikvision 4G solar kit for remote security
Hikvision 4G solar kit for remote security

Hikvision, an IoT solution provider with video as its core competency, has launched a new 4G Solar Panel Kit for Standalone Security Sites. This will revolutionize the protection of remote assets in hard to reach places by proving a security camera that runs on solar power. The kit (DS-2XS6A25G0-I/CH20S40) includes a 4G camera, a solar panel, a battery, and a bracket, and can provide one-stop monitoring in remote environments. This means providers can deliver connected security to scenarios such as agriculture, animal husbandry, and forest fire prevention, as well as temporary monitoring of construction sites. The issue of having no power or network is no longer a problem, with the kit providing power to the camera through the solar panel and connectivity through 4G. It sends data to a communication station and then on to the security monitoring centre, where it can be managed using HikCentral Professional, and the HikConnect app. This means both monitoring and management activities, like viewing footage live, can be done remotely over the 4G network. Its lightweight design makes the kit easy to install, so just one person can install it with a pole mount. The IP67 level of protection makes it hardy against rain, and it also survives well against the strong winds often experienced in remote areas. The kit demonstrates long endurance, detecting power levels and automatically adjusting to power-saving mode when they are low. This means it can work continuously for seven days in cloudy and rainy weather when fully charged. Features include: 40 watt solar panel 20 Ah, built-in rechargeable battery 2 MP @ 30fps DarkFighter® for low-light imaging 8 / 4 / 8 mm lens options 30 m IR distance Built-in 4G (LTE-TDD/LTE-FDD/TD-SCDMA/EVDO) module.

Hikvision AcuSeek NVR with AI
Hikvision AcuSeek NVR with AI

Hikvision has unveiled its revolutionary AcuSeek NVR, powered by large-scale AI models, to tackle a major industry challenge—manual video review during investigations. By integrating natural language interaction, it enables rapid, precise video and image retrieval within seconds, marking a major leap in intelligent security applications. Large multimodal AI models usher in the "Search by Text" era. Users can type phrases like "person on a phone call" or "white van," and the system quickly extracts relevant features using text-image comprehension, streamlining retrieval. Four core advantages redefine industry standards: Search Broadly: Covers people, vehicles, and specific anomalies like "no helmet" or "wheeled suitcase." Search Accurately: Interprets detailed queries like "person wearing a hat and black clothing" with low false detection rates. Search Instantly: Retrieves results in seconds for faster response. Search Flexibly: Offers intuitive shortcuts (e.g., "Find Pets") and customizable phrases, requiring no technical expertise. Applications extend beyond security, including traffic management and community services: Spot vehicles like a "black SUV with round headlights" for investigations. Detect scooters in restricted zones to aid enforcement. Help residents locate lost pets or items. Leo Chen, Product Manager at Hikvision, said: "The launch of the AcuSeek NVR addresses the pain points of traditional video retrieval that relies on manual annotation and suffers from low efficiency. Moving forward, we will continue optimizing AI model algorithms, expanding into more vertical scenarios, and promoting the deep integration of AI technology with security applications."
