Hikvision has announced the latest generation of its Turbo HD range of analogue security products. Turbo HD 8.0 delivers a more comprehensive and interactive security experience for users, enabling them to augment their visual security environment.
The Turbo HD 8.0 includes four innovations that bring users real-time communication, 180-degree video protection, and raise night vision to new heights. The enhancements extend the range of Turbo HD products with two-way audio capabilities, compact dual-lens cameras with stitching technology, and Smart Hybrid Light capability across the entire range of Turbo HD cameras. It also introduces a new advanced pro-series DVR with AcuSense.
TVI two-way audio
The new Turbo HD 8.0 cameras feature two-way audio capability, making them suitable for use in various real-time communication scenarios, such as at fences and door-to-door intercoms. Conversations are clear thanks to intelligent noise reduction, which isolates human voices by filtering ambient sounds. High-powered 2W speakers ensure that the sound quality is strong and immersive. People can comfortably talk over long distances due to the generous 3 m intercom pickup and the greater 5 m pickup used at the remote end.
Compact dual-lens cameras with stitching technology
Turbo HD 8.0 introduces a new dual-lens camera that uses proprietary image-stitched technologies to deliver seamless, 180-degree stitched images. Thanks to its large F1.0 aperture and high-sensitivity sensors, these images remain vivid and colourful night and day. The new camera also introduces a more compact design, making it more discreet and aesthetically suitable for small and medium businesses.
Smart Hybrid Light in all
Smart Hybrid Light technology enhances the night vision experience and has now been extended across the entire series of cameras in the Turbo HD 8.0 range. The Smart Hybrid Light cameras have a wide F1.6 aperture and can capture colour images when a person or a vehicle appears at critical events. Even better night images can be captured using advanced Smart Hybrid Light cameras with ColorVu technology, a larger F1.0 aperture, a supplemental light turn-on time, a Super Confocal Lens, and a BSI high sensitivity sensor.
Upgraded intelligence with advanced pro-series DVR
The new Turbo HD 8.0 range includes an advanced pro-series DVR with AcuSense. This expands the intelligent channel support and improves performance for perimeter protection. It also integrates smart technologies, including facial recognition, Motion Detection 2.0, and perimeter protection, in a single DVR for varied security requirements. The new DVR will soon be updated to include the AcuSearch function, enabling precise target search with a single click for improved video searching efficiency.
