Hanwha Techwin Global Partners with NVIDIA to Develop Surveillance Solutions with Artificial Intelligence

  • Apr 05, 2017

Hanwha Techwin announced today a global partnership with NVIDIA to develop innovative new surveillance solutions with embedded Artificial Intelligence (AI) offered by Hanwha. NVIDIA, a US-based company and pioneer in computer graphics, is renowned for its development and manufacture of advanced Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) for use in computers, robots and self-driving cars using Deep Learning algorithms.

“The deployment of advanced analytics continues to play an increasingly important role is the design and deployment of today’s most advanced integrated security systems. Our partnership with NVIDIA aims to escalate the level and utility of analytics to a new level by incorporating artificial intelligence in our video surveillance solutions,” said Soon Hong Ahn, President, Hanwha Techwin America. “We are very pleased to work alongside NVIDIA to co-develop innovative and powerful video surveillance solutions that will deliver the foremost levels of safety and security.”

NVIDIA's intelligent video analysis platform is based on AI GPUs with Deep Learning capabilities specifically engineered for professional surveillance cameras and storage devices. These advanced processors allow for fast and accurate video analysis to provide valuable and meaningful data along with high quality video. Utilizing NVIDIA AI GPU technology, Hanwha Techwin is focused on developing AI cameras and storage devices capable of autonomously detecting abnormal movements and situations.

Surveillance solutions with AI capabilities enable highly specialized functionality for a wide range of applications including city surveillance, retail, and traffic monitoring. This will allow Hanwha to deliver surveillance solutions that meet the specific needs of different industries and applications, and transcend traditional security applications.

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • 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.
