Extra Info
Face Detection – Real-Time Recognition with Detailed Attributes
This camera features advanced AI-powered face detection that captures snapshots in real time while extracting detailed facial attributes such as age, gender, mask usage, and emotion (e.g., happy, angry, neutral). It also offers customizable optimization settings to prioritize clarity, angle, or facial quality — making it ideal for access control, public safety, or analytical applications in commercial environments.
Perimeter Protection – Smart Detection with Fewer False Alarms
Equipped with intelligent human and vehicle classification, this camera enhances perimeter defense by accurately identifying relevant movement. It minimizes false alarms caused by animals, leaves, or weather. With features like tripwire, loitering, and parking detection, it's a reliable solution for monitoring property lines, restricted zones, or driveways where precision matters most.
People Counting – Occupancy Insight in Real Time
The people counting function enables accurate tracking of individuals entering, exiting, or remaining in a specified area. It supports automated daily, weekly, or monthly reporting, offering powerful business intelligence for retail stores, transportation hubs, or office buildings needing to monitor foot traffic, occupancy rates, or compliance with crowd regulations.
Smart Codec & Performance – Streamlined Storage and Bandwidth
The camera leverages Smart H.265+/H.264+ compression to efficiently reduce file sizes and conserve network bandwidth while maintaining video quality. With support for triple video streams, it enables flexible strategies for recording, live viewing, and mobile access — ideal for hybrid or cloud-based surveillance setups.
Durable Housing – Built to Endure Harsh Environments
Constructed from sturdy metal materials and rated IP67, the camera is completely sealed against dust and water intrusion. It is designed to withstand rain, heat, and other environmental extremes, making it a reliable choice for outdoor installations in parking lots, perimeter fences, commercial exteriors, or exposed industrial areas.
Although this camera does not include built-in AcuPick, it works seamlessly with Dahua NVRs that support AcuPick AI search. When connected to an AI-capable NVR (like NVR5216-4KS2, NVR5432-I, or NVR4108-I), the camera’s AI metadata—including face detection and perimeter events—can be indexed for smarter video retrieval.
With AcuPick via NVR, you can:
-
Filter playback by human or vehicle presence
-
Search by visual traits like clothing color or vehicle type
-
Instantly jump to key moments
-
Avoid watching irrelevant footage manually
Q&A
Q: Is this good for low-light color recording?
A: No. It uses IR LEDs for black-and-white night vision up to 50 meters.
Q: Does it support two-way audio?
A: It has a built-in mic, but no speaker. Two-way talk requires audio out, which this model doesn’t include.
Q: Can this be used without an NVR?
A: Yes. It can record directly to a microSD card and be accessed through the DMSS app or browser.
Q: What’s the difference between this and TiOC models?
A: TiOC models offer active deterrence (lights, siren). This model is focused on AI analytics with silent, passive monitoring.
Q: How long will a 256GB card last?
A: Roughly 1–2 weeks of continuous recording, depending on bitrate and resolution settings.
