Hikvision DarkFighter Gen-2 DeepinView cameras
Hikvision DarkFighter Gen-2 DeepinView cameras

Hikvision has introduced its latest innovation in low-light imaging with DarkFighter 2.0 technology. This advanced system uses AI Image Signal Processing (ISP) algorithms to significantly enhance night-time imagery. Alongside this, Hikvision is launching a new generation of DeepinView cameras, which feature improved performance and a range of intelligent functionalities. Evolution of DarkFighter Technology Hikvision’s DarkFighter technology began with the original DarkFighter cameras, known for their large sensors that captured bright images in low-light conditions. The technology advanced through DarkFighterX and DarkFighterS, which offered better image clarity and colour reproduction in dim environments. DarkFighter 2.0 represents a major leap forward, integrating advanced AI ISP to address optical challenges in dynamic scenes. This results in excellent image and video quality regardless of light conditions and movement speeds. What DarkFighter 2.0 Brings to the Table DarkFighter 2.0 enables high-quality, 24/7 colourful video capture in various lighting conditions. It provides precise details of objects in the dark, even when they are moving at different speeds. This technology is particularly effective in dynamic and complex scenes with ultra-low light, making it ideal for monitoring areas such as crossroads and parking lots around the clock. For instance, DarkFighter 2.0 can now capture the plate number of a speeding car in the dark while maintaining clear details of other objects in the scene—something conventional CCTV cameras struggle to achieve. Key Features of DarkFighter 2.0 The impressive performance of DarkFighter 2.0 is due to several new features: SharpMotion: Minimizes image noise and motion blur. ShotN: Captures clear images of moving objects through flexible exposure settings. Auto Wide Dynamic Range (AWDR): Enhances light adaptation for smarter image processing. High Frame Rates: Ensures smoother motion capture. Integration into Gen-2 DeepinView Cameras DarkFighter 2.0 is being incorporated into Hikvision’s Gen-2 DeepinView camera lineup. These new cameras come with full DarkFighter 2.0 capabilities and additional enhancements, including dual AI functionality. This feature allows two AI algorithms to operate simultaneously, such as perimeter protection and Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) in a parking lot. This versatility makes the Gen-2 DeepinView cameras suitable for complex applications. Hikvision's introduction of DarkFighter 2.0 technology and the Gen-2 DeepinView cameras marks a new era in low-light imaging. These products offer unparalleled image quality, advanced AI capabilities, and versatile features, providing exceptional performance and flexibility for a wide range of security needs. DarkFighter 2.0 will soon be available in DeepinView-Series Omni Cameras, Ultra-Series X6 Cameras, and Ultra-Series PTZs, too. 

Hikvision launches the latest NVR 5.0 to revolutionize the product experience
Hikvision launches the latest NVR 5.0 to revolutionize the product experience

Hikvision recently released the NVR 5.0. Building upon the success of previous iterations, NVR 3.0 and NVR 4.0, Hikvision NVR 5.0 innovates the intelligent platform and integrates with diverse scenario applications, leading the innovative change from traditional recorders to AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) NVR. The AIoT NVR takes intelligent operations, protection, connections, and application functionality to new heights, offering users an innovative, smart, and seamless experience. The NVR 5.0 delivers a refreshing product experience for users with intelligent operations, offering a smooth UI experience with three vital aspects: intuitive live view, faster and smarter playback, and visualized real-time alarm and response.  Intuitive live viewThe new intuitive live view feature makes it easier for users to monitor the real-time channel status more clearly. Customized views can be created for different viewpoints and the system can be configured to meet the needs of multi-screen timed switching. Faster and smarter playback  One of the highlights of the NVR 5.0 is the ‘AcuSearch’ feature. With this advanced new function, users can enjoy faster and more accurate video searches during playback. This innovative search capability allows users to focus on specific targets of interest with just one click, improving overall search efficiency. ‘Smart Search’ settings allow users to draw rule boxes or intrusion lines at the location of an event to quickly filter and easily identify targets entering a particular area. The ‘Slice Playback’ function enhances video retrieval still further by enabling users to visually locate the segments they want to replay. These features work together to improve overall search efficiency, helping users to quickly and easily find the information they need. Real-time alarm and responseReal-time alarm and response have also been significantly enhanced with NVR 5.0. The one-stop event center provides centralized and visual displays of alarm events, enabling security operators to respond swiftly and effectively. The alarm popup feature – combined with event lists, screen views, and captured images – provides a seamless and closed-loop approach to addressing security incidents promptly. Besides the intelligent operations, NVR 5.0 integrates automatic perimeter protection with self-learning by embedding an inference engine in the NVR. The self-learning perimeter protection adopts self-deployment with no manual intervention required. It combines reasoning and training into one with automated algorithm iteration, which greatly improves the accuracy of the algorithms and reduces the false alarms, while also requiring minimal user input. Moreover, the NVR 5.0 offers intelligent connectivity capabilities by enabling direct access for a wide array of devices, enhancing convergence functions. It provides smart audio and video linkage for instant response and data storage, and also supports alarm, access control, and other AIoT application access, facilitating centralized management. NVR 5.0 is also designed to integrate seamlessly with a diverse range of application scenarios to meet different management requirements and improve management efficiency. These applications augment its capabilities and versatility in different environments including entrance and exit management in single-lane scenarios, time & attendance, passenger flow and time-lapse photography.
