Hikvision Canada is dedicated to creating professional protection solutions for the mass market. Their new HeatPro Series Thermal Cameras with upgraded video content analytics (VCA 3.0) does just that, boasting perimeter protection with unparalleled accuracy and fire prevention with superlative sensitivity. Featuring deep-learning video analytics in all weather and light conditions, these cameras hit the target in both cost and performance for a variety of residential, commercial and industrial applications.
Hikvision’s Thermography Cameras are used in various applications around the world to detect temperature anomalies before a fire starts, finding hot spots and invisible defects on machinery or electrical systems that could lead to critical failures. These advanced cameras are also used for surveying areas that are hard to reach with conventional measurement tools.
For example, Hikvision’s thermography cameras effectively monitor temperature changes at a series of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations and send alerts to first responders, reducing time between detection and response. These cameras detect fires before they spread, vastly minimizing safety risks or catastrophic losses. Other common applications include office buildings, warehouses and villas.
Hikvision HeatPro Series thermal cameras sense an object’s heat radiation, capturing images 24/7, regardless of environmental factors such as darkness, lowlight, strong backlight, etc. With HeatPro thermal cameras, users easily locate objects and potential threats that are invisible to conventional optical cameras. Meanwhile, thermal cameras don’t emit visible light, better concealing their presence and position when they need to remain hidden.
Among the advantages offered by the upgraded VCA 3.0 video content analytics are vast improvements in the ways people and vehicles are accurately distinguished and classified.
Classified Object Detection: Conventional cameras may fail to detect the overlapping of people and vehicle targets. Hikvision’s HeatPro Series Thermal Cameras excel with classified object detection, distinguishing people and vehicles. This advanced capability ensures that users can focus their attention and respond only to targets that truly matter.
Grouping Detection: Even when people gather in groups, HeatPro Series Thermal Cameras can accurately identify and classify each individual with precision.
Algorithm Optimization: Hikvision enhances VCA performance by training a large model (teacher model) to drive a small model (student model). This distillation model has resulted in an impressive 80% reduction in false alarms compared to previous deep learning algorithms.
Objects are quickly detected, even in challenging conditions, with the combined technologies of HeatPro bi-spectrum thermal cameras and enhanced VCA 3.0.
Challenging Temperature Conditions: With the upgraded VCA 3.0, Hikvision’s HeatPro series Thermal Cameras enable bi-spectrum analysis, delivering superb precision even when there are minimal temperature differences. This capability allows for agile all-weather detection.
Challenging Viewing Angles: HeatPro Series Thermal Cameras detect targets moving towards the camera with comparatively minute perceivable displacement.
Hikvision's advanced thermal camera technologies ensure simple and fast deployment of multiple cameras with one-key activation. HeatPro Series Thermal Cameras automatically identify object types (person or vehicle) and perform calibration without requiring specific configuration rules for each camera. This streamlined process enhances detection accuracy and significantly reduces setup time for large quantities of cameras.
HeatPro’s advanced thermal technologies and the Hikvision video security ecosystem allow you to integrate with a range of Hikvision products to meet various application scenario needs.
Essential Security: Deploying HeatPro cameras is simple with Hikvision’s NVR product line and Hik-Connect software. This setup ensures highly efficient security protection, including alarm notifications on Hik-Connect for video verification. The Hikvision Solar Power Kit can also provide power and a wireless network for HeatPro series thermal cameras even in very poor lighting conditions or at night, such as construction sites or industrial parks, and where power and data may not be easily accessible.
Enhanced Protection with ARC Integration: It’s easy to integrate HeatPro cameras with ARC for enhanced security measures. Users can also receive alarm notifications from alarm panels and verify with video or opt for different types of notifications based on their subscription. Hikvision HikCentral Professional CMS serves as the ideal centralized software to manage and monitor all thermal and optical alarms and verify alarm notifications in the alarm center.
Flexible Security Solutions: Users have the flexibility to combine alarm systems with HeatPro cameras. They receive alarm notifications on both alarm apps and Hik-Connect, enabling double confirmation.
Streamline security systems by combining events such as perimeter protection, motion detection and two alarm inputs. Each combined event rule allows up to three pre-events, satisfying specific needs (supports one rule for HeatPro 160 resolution, and two rules for 256 resolution). You can also reduce unwanted alarms by combining multiple event-trigger rules.
