Extra Info
Smart AI + Active Deterrence in One Device
This camera goes beyond passive monitoring—it's designed for proactive security. It combines deep learning AI with built-in deterrence features to automatically identify and respond to threats. When motion rules are triggered, the camera can flash red and blue lights and play loud audio alerts to deter intruders in real time. At the same time, it supports facial recognition, people counting, and behavior analytics—making it a smart solution for both security and operational awareness.
High Frame Rate for Fast Action Capture
Streaming at up to 60 frames per second in Full HD (1080p), this camera delivers smooth, blur-free video, even in fast-paced environments. This makes it ideal for areas with frequent movement such as building entrances, drive-throughs, loading docks, or warehouse corridors where clear frame-by-frame playback matters for incident review or evidence gathering.
Queue Management & Area Monitoring
The built-in AI queue analysis tools track how long individuals stay in a defined area and alert when thresholds are exceeded—useful for retail lines, service counters, or waiting rooms. This feature helps improve customer experience, staff allocation, and operational efficiency, while also adding a layer of access control in restricted zones.
Flexible Audio Alert Options
The integrated speaker offers 11 built-in alarm messages, ranging from sirens to verbal warnings. You can also upload your own custom audio files, making it possible to personalize alerts in different languages, tones, or use cases. This is perfect for businesses needing tailored security messaging or localized deterrents.
Broad Compatibility for Any System
This camera supports a wide range of platforms including ONVIF, Genetec, Milestone, and Dahua’s own Smart PSS and DSS systems. Whether you're deploying in a small standalone site or a large-scale enterprise network, it integrates easily and scales as your needs grow—ensuring long-term flexibility and system longevity.
AcuPick – Smart Search (With AI NVR)
While the camera itself doesn’t process AcuPick, when used with a compatible Dahua AI NVR, you can leverage this powerful search tool. AcuPick filters footage using AI-classified human or vehicle presence, letting you jump straight to relevant events with just a few clicks.
Benefits with AI NVR Integration:
- Search by person or vehicle in seconds
- Filter by color or shape traits (e.g. red shirt, white car)
- Skip irrelevant footage and reduce review time
- Ideal for retail, driveways, public areas, or gated entries
