Device Analytics for Hanwha
Leverage on-camera analytics with cloud AI
If you have Hanwha cameras on your edge gateways, you’re now equipped with an enhanced experience. Leveraging ONVIF profile M, Hanwha cameras with object analytics capabilities can now integrate with Arcules’ forensic search, widgets, and display people and vehicle detections on Arcules video playback timelines. Hanwha on-camera detection metadata is combined with the Arcules cloud AI, offering more powerful detection and intelligent forensic search, even in low bandwidth conditions.
What can you do with Hanwha device analytics?
- Detect people and vehicles
- Show results in Forensic Search
- Trigger rules including alarms and notifications
- Show object detections on the playback timeline
- Display widgets for people count, parked vehicle count, and people heat map
- Use Hanwha edge analytics for alarming (people & vehicle detection)
New Mobile Features
Create Widgets and control PTZ cameras from your IOS device
In this product update we are introducing new mobile VMS capabilities. Now, you can create widgets to keep key cameras always visible with glanceable widgets that show the latest person or vehicle detections. Tap any widget to instantly access full video playback, view live video, or control PTZ cameras ensuring you stay informed and in control, anytime, anywhere.
Expanded I/O Support
Trigger 3rd party devices with AI-video
Introducing expanded I/O Support. This extended IoT feature allows detections and alarms from our cloud-based VMS to notify supported Advantech ADAM and Axis I/O modules to trigger third-party devices. Users can now automatically and manually activate external devices, such as opening doors or triggering physical alarms, enhancing system control and response capabilities for security teams.
Case Management Improvements
Find evidence faster and enjoy expanded video playback
The Case Management feature streamlines video evidence collection and sharing within the Arcules VMS systems. Our latest release includes enhancements that provide users clear feedback that the data is securely backed up, added sorting options to quickly find recent or modified cases and upgrades to the evidence video player for more efficient in-app review capabilities. These are just a few of the scheduled enhancements to ensure security teams, IT managers, and forensics experts have quick and reliable evidence collection and sharing capabilities.
Device Table Usability
Find evidence faster and enjoy expanded video playback
The Arcules cloud VMS monitors the status of all your on-line devices, making it easy for you to make modifications or address a problem. However, when you have an extensive network with hundreds or thousands of devices, getting to the desired device can still be a challenge. To help address this, we’ve introduced the sort and filter capability to the device table, providing a way to more quickly find the devices you need.
Audit Trail Improvements
Utilize expanded audit trails for faster issue resolution
Empower users with enhanced audit trail capabilities to independently navigate and troubleshoot systems while ensuring compliance with legal standards. Key updates include new metadata filtering for better insights and a centralized backend audit creation for accuracy. The expanded logs are ideal for Arcules power users, system integrators, and IT managers needing detailed records of system changes and user actions.
