Hanwha Vision Highlights Intelligent Solutions for Every Surveillance Application at GSX 2023

Hanwha Vision is showcasing a diverse array of new surveillance products and vision solutions at GSX 2023 (Booth #3123), reinforcing the company’s leadership position as a global supplier of intelligent video solutions. This international event brings together worldwide security professionals and takes place Sept. 11-13, at the Kay Bailey Hutchinson Convention Center in Dallas.

Artificial intelligence (AI) will be prominent throughout the Hanwha Vision booth, with many existing and new products now incorporating the technology to raise their performance to unprecedented levels. Also, on display will be the new SightMind business intelligence software to support data-driven decision-making, a corner mount camera offering a wide field of view in discreet monitoring applications, four- and five-channel AI multi-directional cameras, 31x 8MP bullet cameras, and cloud technologies.

“Our customers are facing more business challenges than ever before, from increased security threats to fewer security resources to tighter budgets,” said Kevin Seo, president of Hanwha Vision America. “Businesses need surveillance solutions that combine 24/7 protection with the latest advancements in AI, analytics, and cloud management. They’re working differently and so are we, developing the right security and surveillance solutions to help professionals meet their challenges, protect their operations, and keep their business moving forward.”

Hanwha Vision's newest surveillance solutions pack a range of features to support accurate detection and classification, wide field of view, and discreet monitoring for corrections, healthcare, schools, and smart applications. The Hanwha Vision products that will be introduced and on display at GSX include:

Artificial Intelligence. Hanwha Vision first started introducing AI into its products on a selective and specific basis. Now, AI is a key feature across all product lines, and Hanwha Vision stands at the forefront of driving industry-wide AI innovation. New applications of AI in Hanwha products deliver precise detection, robust search capabilities, elevated data analysis, and enhanced image quality.

X Series AI PTZ Plus cameras. With Hanwha Vision’s new X Series AI PTZ Plus cameras, security professionals can increase their operational efficiency while enhancing their surveillance capabilities. These new cameras help to eliminate time-consuming, complex forensic searches and combine image quality and data analysis with AI-powered efficiency to let users focus only on the elements they need to see. Users can narrow search criteria down to specific people, objects, or angles, plus Auto Tracking enables continuous tracking in challenging viewing environments and built-in AI algorithms minimize low-light noise and reduce motion blur.

Q series camera with AI. Hanwha Vision is adding AI to its mid-tier workhorse Q series cameras. This enables accurate people, vehicle, and object detection by filtering out irrelevant motion triggers and creating fewer false alarms. The results are more effective forensic searches and efficient use of recording bandwidth. New Q series upgrades include 4K resolution, an enhanced vandal-resistant design, an operator-controlled LDC function to correct distorted images based on monitoring environment, and AI-based video compression for bandwidth and noise reduction.

Flex AI. Flex AI machine learning helps Hanwha cameras continually learn to recognize key objects for accurate detection (more than 85%) and effective searches. Flex AI enables the detection of custom objects by leveraging Hanwha’s Fast Deep Learning Model Training and Verification. The user-friendly Flex AI can be deployed as a cloud-based application, eliminating the need for on-premise hardware. It connects seamlessly to existing cameras to receive the latest training videos and upload detection models. Flex AI maximizes detection accuracy by training models for already deployed cameras.

DM Pro. DM Pro is a cloud-based solution that provides device management and health monitoring capabilities. Professionals can use DM Pro to “teach” an object in the cloud to create a file that can be uploaded to the WiseAI app for accurate object detection. DM Pro also includes unified device management through an intuitive dashboard, proactive real-time device health and status monitoring, proactive real-time warning information, and Web Push real-time emergency event notification.

Corner mount camera. Sensitive environments like corrections or mental health facilities require surveillance technology enabling discreet but effective monitoring and protection from self-harm. Hanwha Vision’s new 3MP TNV-C7013RC camera boasts a wide FOV eliminating blind spots when installed in corners, and a unique non-visible IR design keeps recording activity discreet and inconspicuous to patients and inmates. Built-in AI enables accurate classification and detection, with search capabilities based on the color of clothing, and the ability to trigger alarms based on color.

Four-and Five-channel multi-directional camera. Hanwha Vision is adding AI to its new four- and five-channel multi-directional cameras. This enables accurate people, vehicle, and object detection by filtering out irrelevant motion triggers and creating fewer false alarms. The results are more effective forensic searches and efficient use of recording bandwidth. New multi-directional camera upgrades include 4K resolution per channel, an enhanced vandal-resistant design, and PTRZ on the five-channel model as well as 40x 2MP PTZ, independent IR per channel and AI-based video compression for bandwidth and noise reduction.

SightMind Business Insight Software. SightMind software enables surveillance professionals to make data-driven decisions that can drive the success of their entire operations. The software uses Hanwha cameras and AI analytics to visualize and monitor market trends and events in real time. Optimized for various customers environments – such as retail, manufacturing, and cities – but applicable to any market, the software harnesses the data generated by the analytics inHanwha cameras, processing the metadata and presenting it with customizable widgets and charts in a visualized dashboard – helping professionals understand and contextualize information about their facility and operations, deriving insights that can turn unrealized data into actionable insights. The software also offers a view into a variety of statistics to optimize the customer experience, increase productivity, and enhance profitability. Users can easily create rule-based widgets to track the data that is most relevant to their operations and aligns with their top business priorities.

At GSX 2023, Hanwha Vision is putting real intelligence to work, from AI PTZ cameras to business intelligence software to machine learning – highlighting solutions for every surveillance application.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
