XVR-I3 series to broaden AI applications

Issue 2 2022 Surveillance

Dahua Technology recently unveiled an addition to its AI-enabled XVR series by releasing the XVR-I3 models. These new product models support an array of AI features including full-channel SMD Plus and AI Coding, 4-channel Perimeter Protection and more (the number of channels varies depending on the product model). It also supports Scheduled AI functions for more convenient and practical applications. Multiple cameras can also be integrated with XVR-I3, such as Smart Dual Illuminator camera, 6:9 5MP HDCVI camera and TiOC 2.0.

The XVR-I3 models support various AI features. Smart Motion Detection Plus (SMD Plus), can recognise humans and vehicles through its deep learning algorithm, filtering out irrelevant objects to reduce false alarms. Similarly, the Perimeter Protection function only sends alarms when human or vehicle intrusion has been detected, saving users time in checking false alarms. This feature has also been upgraded from one channel to up to four channels.

In addition, the XVR-I3 models also integrate AI Coding which focuses on human and vehicle targets while saving 50% bandwidth and storage costs compared with H.265.

Scheduled AI

Previous XVR versions only allow one AI function to be enabled per channel, meaning users must manually switch to another function if needed. Using the latest XVR5000-4KL-I3 series, AI functions can be preset according to a desired time period, making it ideal for a myriad of application scenarios such as retail stores, villas and schools.

For example, during business hours, retail stores can use the Scheduled AI function to set SMD Plus to greet incoming customers at the entrance. At night, the AI function will automatically switch to Perimeter Protection to deter and warn off possible intruders using Active Deterrence.

Multiple camera linkage

The Smart Dual Illuminators camera can effectively integrate with XVR-I3 devices. According to the status of the target detected by the AI-enabled XVR, the camera can flexibly switch between IR mode and white light mode, significantly helping to reduce light pollution in the area. Aside from that, these devices also support 16:9 5 MP HDCVI cameras that provide undistorted 5 MP image performance and clear images.

Moreover, the XVR-I3 can also integrate with Three-in-One (TiOC) 2.0 cameras that offer active warning through red and blue lights and a siren. With TiOC 2.0, both the XVR and DMSS app can be used to upload customised alarm audio (e.g. 'Private Property, Keep Out!'), providing more convenience and flexibility for end-users. The XVR and DMSS app also offer one-click arming/disarming function, which can also be controlled using a local alarm switch for extra convenience.
