Hikvision has announced the latest generation of its Turbo HD range of analogue security products. Turbo HD 8.0 delivers a more comprehensive and interactive security experience for users, enabling them to augment their visual security environment. The revolutionary Turbo HD 8.0 includes four major innovations that bring users real-time communication, 180-degree video protection, and raise night vision to new heights.  The enhancements extend the range of Turbo HD products with two-way audio capabilities, compact dual-lens cameras with stitching technology, and Smart Hybrid Light capability across the entire range of Turbo HD cameras. It also introduces a new advanced pro-series DVR with AcuSense.  TVI two-way audio The new Turbo HD 8.0 cameras feature two-way audio capability, making them suitable for use in various real-time communication scenarios, such as at fences and door-to-door intercoms. Conversations are crystal clear thanks to intelligent noise reduction which isolates human voices by filtering ambient sounds. High-powered 2W speakers ensure that the sound quality is strong and immersive. People can comfortably talk over long distances, meanwhile, thanks to the generous 3m intercom pickup and the greater 5m pickup used at the remote end.  Compact dual-lens cameras with stitching technologyTurbo HD 8.0 introduces a new dual-lens camera that uses proprietary image-stitched technologies to deliver seamless, 180-degree, stitched images. These images remain vivid and colourful at all times of the night, as well as the day, thanks to its large F1.0 aperture and high-sensitivity sensors. The new camera also introduces a more compact design. This makes the new camera more discreet, and more aesthetically suitable for small and medium businesses. Smart Hybrid Light in allSmart Hybrid Light technology enhances the night vision experience and has now been extended across the entire range of cameras in the Turbo HD 8.0 range. The Smart Hybrid Light cameras have a wide F1.6 aperture and can capture colour images at critical events when a person or a vehicle appears. Even better night images can be captured using advanced Smart Hybrid Light cameras with ColorVu technology, a larger F1.0 aperture, later supplemental light turn-on time, Super Confocal Lens, and a BSI high sensitivity sensor.  Upgraded intelligence with advanced pro-series DVRThe new Turbo HD 8.0 range includes an advanced pro-series DVR with AcuSense. This expands the intelligent channel support and improves performance for perimeter protection. It also integrates smart technologies including facial recognition, Motion Detection 2.0, and perimeter protection in a single DVR for varied security requirements. The new DVR will be updated soon to include the AcuSearch function, enabling precise target search with a single click for improved video searching efficiency. The revolutionary HD Turbo 8.0 products are the latest example of Hikvision’s commitment to constant technological innovation and development. In 2018, ColorVu and AcuSense technologies were introduced to deliver 24/7 colour imaging and smart recognition. The following year, PIR Live Guard alarms were added in Turbo HD X. Hikvision will continue to innovate technology to bring new values and experiences to users in the future.

Easy and secure installation  The Easy IP Solution makes installation easy and secure for all users. The PoE-equipped NVRs mean that the need for a separate power supply to each camera is eliminated, while the inclusion of the 4MP panoramic fisheye camera allows the entire coverage of store or office rather than having to deploy several fixed cameras. The recessed-mount dome cameras also enable installers to simply use existing downlight installations while cameras with motorised lens, and with PT (pan-tilt) and PTZ functionality eliminate the need for post-installation camera and lens direction positioning.  Easy connection As well as PoE meaning that just a single Ethernet cable is required for each camera, the Easy IP Solution includes a complete range of Wi-Fi cameras and NVRs featuring auto-detection, auto-connection and easy access. At the same time, the PoE NVRs automatically allocate an IP address to each camera when it is connected, completely removing any potential delays with configuring IP address forwarding and saving time in large installations.  Easy storage Featuring on-board storage on many of the cameras, Hikvision’s Easy IP Solution also offers high compression efficiency codecs to reduce the burden placed on the transmission and storage elements of the system. This is particularly significant for high-definition IP systems where bandwidth and storage costs can be a major concern - a standard H.264 camera with full HD 1080p resolution and one month of recording can result in about 1.2 TB of space consumed. The Hikvision H.264+ optimised Smart codec technology helps to reduce storage consumption by up to two-thirds, with full HD 1080p resolution for one month consuming just 462 GB.  Easy and advanced viewing and video management All Hikvision Easy IP cameras support the EZVIZ Cloud – P2P service, which enables remote access from your smartphone. This means you can view the live video and recorded video files from your house, store, office or enterprise anytime and anywhere. EZVIZ also includes Intelligent Alarm support so that any intrusion or emergency events can be precisely recognised and resolved.
