Multi-area alarm: Indicates the metal positions on the body – max. 18 areas. Modularized component: Easy transmission and installation. Thermal imaging features: Smart functions: Temperature exception detection, linkage for audible alarm, and linkage of white strobe light alarm. Thermal imaging functions: Uncooled sensor, resolution: 160 x 120, supporting AGC4.0, DDE and 3DNR, and supporting dual-light fusion image, visible light and thermal imaging frame over lay. System functions: Dual-channel, single IP, dual-streaming,  PoE power supply, IP66 protective level, operation temperature: 5 to 40℃℃, 95% RH. Interfaces: 10M/ 100M self-adapting network interface, micro SD/ micro SDHC/ micro SDXC card (128G/256G) slot, 1-ch alarm input/ output, 15 pseudo colors: white, black, red etc. Visible light functions: 4 MP, 1/2.7” CMOS, Max. Resolution: 2688×1520@25fps. Supports low bit rate, low latency and ROI, independent settings for day or night condition, 1-ch audio input/ output, 1-ch 12 VDC power input. Security: Security verification such as HTTPS, supporting license creating. Three level of users, IP address filtering, user and password authentication normal levels. Metal detection features: Detection accuracy: Metal in the size like a clip (or 1/2 clip) is detectable on the middle of the detector. Goods like belt buckle can be excluded. Copper, aluminium and zinc (over 150 g), controlled knife, and gun are detectable. Anti-interference: multiple detectors can work abreast at the same time. Multi-area alarm: Indicates the metal positions on the body – max. 18 areas. Frequency settings: 100 frequencies can be set, and different ring tone for different frequency Sensitivity Settings: 255 level of sensitivity can be set. People counting: Display the number of walk-through people and people in alarm. Positioning LED: LEDs on the sides of detectors for indicating positions of the prohibited goods. LCD screen: Storing sensitivity parameters for different scenes for shortcut settings. Material: PVC shell.

Prama Hikvision Adds Innovative Features of Temperature Screening and Mask Wearing Alert to MinMoe Face Recognition Terminal

Prama Hikvision, an IoT solutions provider with video as its core competency, has added innovative features like temperature screening function and mask wearing alert to its ground-breaking MinMoe face recognition terminal product range. Hikvision’s face recognition terminals are embedded with deep-learning algorithms for access control with value added features. Hikvision’s DS-K1T607TEF MinMoe face recognition terminal is a kind of access control device integrated with temperature screening function. It can fast take skin-surface temperature and upload abnormal temperature event to the center, which can be widely applied in multiple scenarios such as enterprises, stations, dwellings, factories, schools, campus and so on. Hikvision’s DS-K1T607TEF MinMoe face recognition terminal has special features related to temperature screening and face mask wearing alert. This face recognition terminal supports Vanadium Oxide uncooled sensor to measure target’s temperature. Temperature measuring range: 30°C to 45°C (86°F to 113°F), accuracy: ± 0.5°C without black body calibration, recognition distance: 0.3 to 2 m. Fast temperature measurement mode: Detects face and takes skin-surface temperature without identity authentication. Multiple authentication modes: Card and temperature, face and temperature, card and face and temperature modes etc. Face mask wearing alert: If the recognizing face does not wear a mask, the device will prompt a voice reminder. At the same time, the authentication or attendance is valid. This face recognition terminal displays temperature measurement results on the authentication page, triggers voice prompt when detecting temperature above normal levels. Other features include: Configurable door status (open/ close) when detecting abnormal temperature. Transmits online and offline temperature information to the client software via TCP/IP communication and saves the data on the client software. Face recognition duration <0.2s/ user; face recognition accuracy rate ≥99% 50,000 face capacity, 50,000 card capacity and 100,000 event capacity Suggested height for face recognition: between 1.4m and 1.9m Supports 6 attendance status, including check in, check out, break in, break out, overtime in, overtime out

Hikvision Launches Optimus Middleware for HikCentral Partner Integration

Hikvision, an IoT solution provider with video as its core competency, has launched Hikvision Optimus – a system-level middleware product, for integration of events, alarms and data synchronization between HikCentral and other systems like access control, building management systems, and IoT devices. For example, integrating HikCentral with access control systems via Optimus software helps customers operate more efficiently. This integration enables users to quickly and easily receive door alarms, grant or deny access, and synchronize user credentials in both systems. Optimus middleware features connectors that bridge third party systems with HikCentral, regardless of their coding standards. This ensures a long-term, uninterrupted, continuous integrated operations. Optimus offers a wide range of advantages: The majority of use cases can be completed using only one connector as Optimus integrates multiple products and systems. The easy-to-use graphical interface enables integrators with no programming skills to build custom “if-this-then-that” scenarios to match exact customer needs. Third parties can develop their own connectors with Optimus based on their own API/SDK and thus achieve rapid integration times. A built-in health monitoring function provides the operator with a real-time insight into the integration status. The Optimus product comes with a flexible and distribution-friendly licensing structure for the connectors. This structure allows connector developers to stay in control of usage, yet determine pricing at their own discretion. “We are very excited to launch an offering that represents a completely new and truly scalable approach to integration with HikCentral. Optimus will enable Hikvision installers and technology partners to easily integrate their systems with HikCentral,” says James Iacuessa, Senior Product Manager from Hikvision. Based on its third-party software development kit (SDK), Hikvision has created a number of connectors with Optimus software: Paxton NET2 AMAG Symmetry Additional information and a list of the connectors, including descriptions and their benefits, is available on our Technology Partner Portal here: tpp.hikvision.com/tpp/Solution
