Hikvision AcuSense and ColorVu deliver SME security AcuSense and ColorVu are the most advanced technologies Hikvision has developed for application in the SME sector. When deployed in combination, they have the power to significantly reduce false alarm and manpower costs. Video surveillance has evolved from a simple requirement for clear images to video content analysis (VCA) for improved management. Now, with deep learning, security solutions are enabled with sophisticated intelligence, and Hikvision’s AcuSense now makes advanced VCA and deep learning capabilities accessible to SMEs and residential customers. Small and medium businesses have many of the same surveillance and security requirements as larger organisations. They need to identify and react to perimeter breaches in real time, and they need automated footage searches to locate events quickly. However, conventional surveillance systems may not do the job well enough.
The need for accurate alarms Conventional surveillance systems provide certain detection features enabled by video content analysis (VCA), such as motion detection, line-crossing detection and intrusion detection, but, they simply compound all event detections, triggering frequent alarms when an object is detected. This could be an animal, a shadow, or other natural movements – false alarms. Investigating each alarm to rule out false triggers can delay appropriate response and is otherwise just plain inefficient. Being able to identify verified threats – the presence of a human or a vehicle – can greatly improve the accuracy of perimeter VCA. Hikvision’s hassle-free AcuSense technology can help achieve

this goal, and deliver a cost-effective way to protect sites and assets. Enhanced alarm accuracy saves time and worry Employing advanced VCA and deep learning algorithms, Hikvision AcuSense helps you maximise security with efficient human and vehicle detection by categorising alarm information into human, vehicle, and other objects. With high accuracy, the system disregards alarms triggered by other objects such as rain or leaves, and delivers alarms associated only with human or vehicle detection. With Hikvision AcuSense you also get a “quick target search” feature that allows security personnel or local police to find footage quickly in the event of a security incident. This saves many hours compared to searching for footage manually. Efficient alerts and video help you get in the know When an intruder tries to sneak into a property on a windy and rainy day, he/ she probably thinks that the bad weather will provide good cover due to the distraction of wild and wooly weather and lack of witnesses. With a perimeter security system armed with Hikvision AcuSense technology, this is not the case. The security camera armed with AcuSense precisely captures the intruder breaching the external perimeter. At the same time, it delivers a notification to your smartphone and a view of the video feeds. With this verified alarm, action can be taken straight away. Hikvision AcuSense prevents problems before they escalate into potential emergencies.
Hikvision’s fully-integrated video surveillance makes it easy for you to see and capture important activity with video alerts, live feeds and 24/7 digital video recording – all easily viewed from your Hik-Connect app. Hikvision AcuSense technology can be found in the EasyIP and Turbo HD product ranges, which provide ideal security solutions for small factories, residential estates and villas, small hotels, gas stations and similar sites – indoor and outdoor. Hikvision AcuSense key features: • False alarm reduction – reduces false alarms triggered by inanimate objects to a minimum, vastly improving alarm efficiency and saving costs; • Quick target search – more efficient and effective file searching based on human and vehicle classifications, preventing security personnel from having to search through footage manually; • Strobe light and audio alarm – wards off potential intruders by combining a siren with flashing light. Hikvision ColorVu Cameras At around 11 pm, police received an emergency call and rushed to the scene. An assault had occured in a park. According to the victim, the attacker looked like a beggar in ragged clothes and smelled of alcohol. The victim was heading home from the park at the time of the incident, when the attacker suddenly ran out of nowhere and attacked her, took her purse, and fled. The police investigated the scene but found no useful information about the attacker. Because it happened at night, the security cameras in the
