IP-based video surveillance
25 November 2008
Harnessing TI’s DaVinci technology, Hikvision announces IP-based video surveillance.
The new DS-9000 series hybrid digital video recorder (DVR) with integrated intelligent video analytics allows video surveillance customers to integrate flexible Internet Protocol (IP) based technology with their current analogue systems to future-proof their security investments.
Additionally, the new two-megapixel DS-2CD852MF-E network camera with Power over Ethernet (PoE) provides high-definition IP video ensuring that all details within the camera’s field of view are captured.
Hikvision’s new DS-9000 series hybrid DVR is an embedded product utilising TI’s TMS320DM647 and TMS320DM648 digital media processors based on the C64x+ core that integrates analogue and IP video with networkability and intelligence. The new architecture allows for multichannel video input encoding, intelligent video analysis, and supports quad codec capabilities including H.264, MPEG-4, MJPEG and AVS.
Also based on TI’s C64x+ core, TI’s TMS320DM6446 digital media processor is tailored for video encode and decode applications and is capable of capturing various digital video formats. The DM6446 serves as the primary processing engine for Hikvision’s DS-2CD852MF-E network camera with PoE. This supports colour to black and white switches, as well as day and night auto switches. It provides for dual stream capable two-megapixel video resolution with MPEG-4 and Hikvision’s self developed or standard H.264 video codec. The multiple connection ports, completed network and pan, tilt, zoom (PTZ) protocols are designed to adapt in various software platforms.
“Digital media processors are vital to video surveillance systems as they are directly related to the video quality and performance of end products, and TI offers the strongest DSP platforms in the market,” said Polo Cai, VP of international business, Hikvision. “TI’s processors offer high performance capabilities, simplifying the process of applying our own codecs and applications to the DSP and allowing us to deliver the highest quality products, and by offering the needed flexibility, we can easily develop a multitude of solutions,” added Cai.
