Hanwha Vision Opens New Innovation and Technology Center in Irvine, California

Hanwha Vision opened its newest Hanwha Innovation and Technology Experience (HITE) on July 30, 2024 in Irvine, Calif. The new 5,200 sq. ft Center, Hanwha’s third HITE in the United States, presents the company’s vision for the future of security and surveillance through a combination of interactive product demonstration stations, a training center, and presentation areas.

Since Hanwha developed the HITE concept in 2019, the company has continually made every effort to design each location as a “destination” for Hanwha customers, partners and professionals across the security and surveillance industry.

“The convergence of hardware devices with software-based advanced vision solutions is changing the landscape of surveillance and creating unique security requirements,” said Mr. Kevin Seo, President of Hanwha Vision America. “The HITE provides our customers and partners with comprehensive resources to educate them about the latest surveillance technologies and data-driven analytics that are transforming our industry and helping organizations adapt their operations for long-term success.”

This newest HITE location joins the original space in Hanwha Vision’s New Jersey headquarters and another in Texas. Its prime location in the Irvine Spectrum Center makes it convenient for customers and partners to visit and schedule tours.

The HITE features multimedia classrooms and lab environments for hands-on product training, certification courses, dealer and partner education and more, with full online capabilities to support remote participants.

The Hanwha surveillance solutions on display in the Irvine HITE range from devices enabling protection and monitoring capabilities to the latest advancements in Artificial Intelligence, data analytics for business intelligence, and cloud-based surveillance management. Attendees will see Hanwha Vision’s OnCloud VMS and full ecosystem of unified cloud-based devices and apps to AI-powered cameras, AI analytics and business intelligence software. Additional Hanwha Vision products and solutions featured in the Irvine HITE include:

  • Wall-mount cameras (T series TNV-C8011RW) – these new cameras solve the obstructed-view challenges of high-overhead dome devices by delivering an “eye-level,” nearly 180° panoramic FOV for accurate face and object detection (people and vehicles).
  • AI Box (AIB-800) - converts any camera supporting ONVIF/SUNAPI into an AI-enabled device with object classification and attribute extraction, avoiding the additional costs of replacing an entire system.
  • Bi-spectrum traffic cameras (TNO-C49xxTDR series) – contains visible and thermal sensors enhanced for outdoor applications, specifically transportation and traffic monitoring. Thermal imaging enables 24/7 monitoring even in low light or challenging conditions.
  • Radiometric thermal imaging with AI technology (TNO-C3010TRA) – enhances safety in hazardous environments by instantly detecting abnormal temperature changes within the widest temperature detection range on the market (rom -40°F ~ 1,022°F (- 40°C to 550°C).

Each HITE center is built with a modular infrastructure allowing sections to be easily modified to showcase different products and technologies. This flexibility allows Hanwha to present customized demonstrations across various vertical markets as industry trends and customer needs evolve.

  • Gaining a Competitive Edge

    Ask most companies about their future technology plans and the answers will most likely include AI. Then ask how they plan to deploy it, and that is where the responses may start to vary. Every company has unique surveillance requirements that are based on market focus, scale, scope, risk tolerance, geographic area and, of course, budget. Those factors all play a role in deciding how to configure a surveillance system, and how to effectively implement technologies like AI. Read Now

  • The Stage is Set

    The security industry spans the entire globe, with manufacturers, developers and suppliers on every continent (well, almost—sorry, Antarctica). That means when regulations pop up in one area, they often have a ripple effect that impacts the entire supply chain. Recent data privacy regulations like GDPR in Europe and CPRA in California made waves when they first went into effect, forcing businesses to change the way they approach data collection and storage to continue operating in those markets. Even highly specific regulations like the U.S.’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) can have international reverberations – and this growing volume of legislation has continued to affect global supply chains in a variety of different ways.
