Empowering verticals with AI

1 June 2020 Surveillance

According to an IHS report in 2019, the total market value of professional video surveillance equipment will grow to US$27 billion in 2023. Dahua Technology has released WizMind, a portfolio of project-oriented products including IPC, NVR, PTZ, XVR, thermal and a software platform, delivering AI solutions to verticals including government, retail, energy, finance and transportation.

Powered by an AI chip and deep learning algorithms, WizMind provides comprehensive human-oriented solutions including face recognition, privacy protection, human video metadata, people counting, stereo analysis, etc., enabling rapid and precise reaction on what matters to you. In addition, it provides more precise and effective AI search to locate the targets, generating various data of humans for business analysis.

To protect people’s portrait data, WizMind provides privacy protection. Based on deep learning algorithms, WizMind supports real-time mosaic masking of a human face or human body detected in the monitoring area, which is needed in a courtroom scenario and valuable to retailers alike, who can optimise their business through intelligent analysis of customer flow recorded without violating privacy or GDPR.

WizMind also boasts multiple vehicle-based AI solutions, such as ANPR, vehicle metadata and illegal parking, which provide more attributes of vehicles for easy control, quick search and business analysis. It is widely used in urban roads, residential community entrances, parking lots and toll stations.

By extracting and comparing plate numbers with a database, ANPR helps managers of parking lots and city roads improve efficiency of vehicle management with functions like blacklist alarms and VIP recognition. ANPR also supports vehicle tracking, which helps police efficiently locate a suspicious car according to the cross-checking result. Currently, ANPR is able to recognise plate numbers in over 58 countries.

WizMind with thermal technology

WizMind combines deep learning algorithms with thermal imaging technology to help users achieve ultra-long distance monitoring in harsh environments, non-contact temperature monitoring and early fire prevention.

With an accuracy of ±0,3°C and a speed that monitors three people per second, the Dahua High Accuracy Body Temperature Monitoring Solution has been widely applied to transportation hubs, financial institutions, commercial complexes, schools and other places all over the world, joining the global efforts in the pandemic prevention and control.

Initiating openness and collaboration, Dahua WizMind series is compatible with mainstream third-party technology partners, such as Milestone, AxxonSoft, ISS and others. Furthermore, the WizMind ecosystem provides the DHOP and an API for our technology partners, enabling them to combine real AI joint solutions for our common customers, and a series of marketing activities will be engaged with our ecosystem partners.
