Dahua upgrades its open application platform

Issue 9 2020 News & Events

Dahua Technology has upgraded its open application platform by launching the Application Marketplace and DHOP Community on its new Dahua Hardware Open Platform (DHOP) website.

DHOP is the company´s key initiative to bring together technology partners, system integrators, resellers and end users. By opening its hardware devices to third-party developers, DHOP allows them to embed smart applications for the security and IoT industry. Information about the developed solutions is made available on the Dahua Application Marketplace.

System integrators and end users can visit the marketplace in search for flexible solutions that adapt to their needs at any given time. At the time of writing, 16 applications have already been uploaded to the application marketplace.

Dahua Hardware Open Platform (DHOP)

Video analytics solutions at the edge have become of strategic importance for Dahua. The R&D; department has successfully implemented AI functionalities on Dahua cameras, equipped with native VCA solutions.

Peter Pan, global technology partner alliance director at Dahua Technology, believes that there are no limits on video analytics solutions. “The industries are interested in comprehensive solutions that respond to specific use cases. Dahua Technology wants to listen to the market and add value together with technology partners. This flexibility and customer-oriented approach is possible thanks to our Dahua Hardware Open Platform Community.”

The debut of the platform dates back to 2018. Since then, significant technical adaptations have been made and the camera performances have been optimised. A team of engineers has also managed to enable most of the recent Dahua cameras with third-party embedding options and this will be standard in the future.
