The partnership between Hanwha and OpenEye Web Services (OWS) provides a valuable integration that enhances the capabilities of both systems, particularly in the realm of video analytics and surveillance. This collaboration allows OpenEye recorders to interact seamlessly with Hanwha Analytic-enabled cameras, resulting in several benefits for users:
- Analytics Integration: OpenEye recorders can now receive, organize, and search for events generated by Hanwha Analytic-enabled cameras. This integration bridges the gap between camera analytics and the recording system, enabling more streamlined management and utilization of the analytics data.
- Real-time Alerting and Reporting: The integrated system can transmit analytic events from on-site recorders to OpenEye Web Services, enabling real-time alerts and reporting. This ensures that users are promptly notified of relevant events and can take appropriate actions.
- Cloud-based Configuration: The partnership allows for cloud-based configuration of alert rules based on analytic events from one or more Hanwha cameras. This remote configuration capability provides flexibility and ease of management.
- Live Video and Search Interface: Users gain access to a live video feed and search interface specifically for camera analytic events. This enhances situational awareness and simplifies event investigation.
- Macro Generation: The integration enables the creation of macros triggered by camera analytic events. This functionality can automate certain actions based on specific events, streamlining response procedures.
- Camera Link Support: Users can access the complete Hanwha programming interface through Camera Link support without requiring VPN access to the camera network. This facilitates seamless communication and control.
Regarding Hanwha Analytics, the capabilities offered by their analytic-enabled cameras are extensive:
- Multi-Analytics Support: Hanwha cameras can run multiple analytics simultaneously, each with multiple zones, without affecting other camera functions. This ensures efficient and accurate event detection.
- Automatic Event Identification: The analytics can automatically identify events such as intruders and gunshots. This reduces the need for constant monitoring and improves response time to critical incidents.
- Event Review and Minimization: The analytics make it easier to review events by focusing on relevant alerts, reducing the number of less important events. This streamlines the monitoring process.
- Reduced False Positives: The analytics are designed to minimize false positives caused by factors like trees, animals, windows, and lighting conditions. This improves the accuracy of event detection.
- Remote Monitoring: Analytics enhance the monitoring of remote locations by providing actionable insights even from a distance.
The supported analytic types encompass a wide range of capabilities:
- Person / Vehicle Detection: Identifying people and vehicles to generate more actionable alerts.
- Mask Detection: Detecting individuals not wearing masks properly.
- Camera Tampering: Detecting unauthorized changes to the camera’s image or position.
- Virtual Lines and Areas: Detecting object movement across virtual lines and within specified areas.
- Queue Management: Monitoring the number of people in defined queue areas.
- Audio Detection and Sound Classification: Detecting audio events and identifying specific sounds.
- Fog/Smoke Detection: Detecting obscured recording environments and enabling defog adjustments.
- Camera Out of Focus: Detecting when the camera becomes unfocused.
- License Plate Detection: Detecting characters on license plates.
In conclusion, the partnership between Hanwha and OpenEye Web Services brings together the strengths of Hanwha’s advanced analytics-enabled cameras and OpenEye’s recording and management solutions. The integration allows for more effective event detection, management, and response, enhancing the overall capabilities of surveillance and security systems.
