DH-SD8A840-HNF-PA PTZ WizMind Network Camera

Launched by Dahua Technology, Dahua WizMind is a full portfolio of solutions composed of project-oriented products including IPC, NVR, PTZ, XVR, Thermal and software platform which adopts industry-leading deep learning algorithms.
Focusing on customer’s requirements, WizMind provides precise, reliable and comprehensive AI solutions for industry verticals.

System Overview

Dahua PTZ WizMind network camera adopts advanced CNN deep learning algorithms to achieve high accuracy. This camera possess wide monitor range, PFA algorithm that can always present a clear, focused image while zooming, and smart wiper technology that supported by RainSensor.

Functions

Starlight Technology
For challenging low-light applications, Dahua’s Starlight Ultra-low Light Technology offers best-in-class light sensitivity, capturing color details in low light down to 0.005 Lux. The camera uses a set of optical features to balance light throughout the scene, resulting in clear images in dark environments.
Perimeter Protection
Automatically filters out false alarms caused by animals, rustling leaves, bright lights, etc. Enables system to act secondary recognition for the targets. Improves alarm accuracy.
Metadata
Metadata is attribute information extracted from a target which can be used for data retrieval. There are four kinds of metadata supported by Dahua PTZ WizMind camera: Human face, human body, motor vehicle and non-motor vehicle. Facial information includes gender, age, glasses, masks, beards, etc. Human body information includes hat, top, top color, bottom, bottom color, bag, etc. Motor vehicle information includes plate color, type, vehicle color, sunshield, ornament, calling, seatbelt, smoking, annual inspection sticker, etc. Non-motor vehicle information includes type, color, top type, top color, people number, etc.

$Dahua Technology DH SD8A840 HNF PA PTZ WizMind Network Camera - Symbols $6$$ Auto-tracking
This feature controls the pan/tilt/zoom actions of the camera to automatically track an object in motion and to keep it in the scene. The tracking action can be triggered manually or automatically by defined rules. Once a rule is triggered, the camera can zoom in and track the defined target automatically.
PFA Technology
PFA technology has innovatively introduced new methods of judgment to ensure the accuracy and predictability of the direction of subject distance adjustment. The result is a set of advanced focusing algorithms.
PFA ensures clarity of the image throughout the process of zooming and shortens focus time. The realization of PFA technology substantially improves user experience and increases product value.
Smart H.265+
Smart H.265+ is the optimized implementation of the H.265 codec that uses a scene-adaptive encoding strategy, dynamic GOP, dynamic ROI, flexible multi- frame reference structure and intelligent noise reduction to deliver high- quality video without straining the network. Smart H.265+ technology reduces bit rate and storage requirements by up to 70% when compared to standard H.265 video compression.
