Hanwha Vision has launched Q series fisheye cameras with enhanced AI, providing a range of intelligent analytics alongside 360-degree monitoring.
Ideally suited for retail, hospitality, public spaces and residential settings with models including:
Accurate object detection and classification, powered by leading AI algorithms, reduces false alarms caused by wildlife, weather and changing light patterns.
The cameras generate object metadata for quick forensic search in complex scenes, making investigations highly efficient.
Footage can be searched based on detected vehicles, people – plus colour of clothing (upper and lower) and vehicle colour.
According to the company, nine colours can be detected, including black, white, grey and primary colours.
The cameras feature a host of intelligent video analytics including virtual area, appear and disappear, and line-crossing detection.
Alerts can be issued based on predefined rules, such as a person remaining in a space for a specific time or a vehicle crossing a virtual line into a car park.
The company states that the fisheye cameras include:
The company states that to deliver clear images to operators, the cameras have on-board dewarping, which stretches footage out to a horizontal, wide field of view with no distortion of the image at the edges.
There are options for single four-frame views of a space, double or single panoramas and quad views.
The QNF-C9010 is a compact fisheye camera, 52mm in height, making it ideal for indoor settings where it can be discreetly installed on a ceiling or wall.
The QNF-C9010V is a larger model with an aluminium casing and IP66 and IK10 ratings, and vandal protection designed for outdoor environments.
Hanwha Vision notes the Q series AI fisheye cameras come with end-to-end cybersecurity features, including user and network authentication, secure communication, access control based on IP addresses, device ID and secure storage.
Footage and data are securely stored, with hacking risk pre-empted through unauthorised access blocking.
John Lutz Boorman, Head of Product and Marketing, Hanwha Vision Europe commented: “The latest Q series fisheye cameras deliver the benefits of our leading AI-powered analytics to help operators and businesses make smarter decisions.
“With 360-degree monitoring, a compact and discreet form factor, and business intelligence capabilities, these cameras suit a multitude of applications.”
