AcuSense Advanced Detection and Features

AcuSense technology activates deep learning-based Motion Detection 2.0 on all analog channels. It classifies humans and vehicles precisely to filter out false alarms from leaves, shadows, animals, or lights. Perimeter protection includes line crossing and intrusion detection with intelligent filtering. Facial recognition supports face picture comparison, face capture, and search across libraries (up to 16 libraries, 500 pictures total). Audio records over coaxial, enabling two-way talk functionality.

Remote Access and Local Display

Remote monitoring uses the Hik-Connect app for live views, playback, and management on smartphones or computers. Multiple connections operate smoothly. Local HDMI and VGA outputs connect to displays simultaneously. Browse suitable options in our monitors category. Enhance remote control with devices from our laptops category.
