AcuSense Human & Vehicle Classification
Hikvision AcuSense uses deep-learning algorithms to focus motion events on people and vehicles. This helps reduce unnecessary alerts caused by unrelated movement and makes recorded event review more useful when the camera is paired with a compatible Hikvision NVR.
Powered-by-DarkFighter Low-Light Imaging
The 1/1.8-inch Progressive Scan CMOS sensor provides strong low-light performance down to 0.003 Lux in colour. Smart IR then provides illumination up to 30 metres when the scene becomes too dark for colour imaging.
Built-in Microphone
The integrated microphone adds audio context to recorded footage, which can be useful at entrances, shopfronts, reception areas and other monitored locations. Audio recording should be configured and used in accordance with applicable privacy and workplace requirements.
4K Detail with 120dB WDR
With a maximum resolution of 3840 × 2160, the camera provides detailed footage for identification and incident review. 120dB true WDR helps balance bright and dark areas in the same scene, particularly around entrances, doorways, driveways and loading areas.
Ideal Applications
- home entrances, driveways and side access
- retail stores and shopfronts
- offices and reception areas
- car parks and apartment common areas
- warehouses and loading zones
- commercial-building entrances and external walkways
