Hikvision's New Pro Series - Smart Hybrid Light and ColorVu
A large aperture, adjustable lighting modes, and other refined technologies bring powerful new features to Hikvision’s Pro-Series Cameras with ColorVu, which render professional-quality color imaging even in low-light conditions. The newest Smart Hybrid Light Cameras with ColorVu upgrade your night vision experience with true-to-life details in virtually any setting. Even in total darkness, users can still get sharply-focused HD images in color or black & white. Leading technologies like ColorVu produce a more flexible and powerful security experience.
Powerful new features include:
Optimize your security with flexible lighting options
Hikvision's Smart Hybrid Light technology can automatically switch from IR light to visible white (supplemental) lighting at night. Equipped with this technology, cameras offer three supplemental lighting options to suit a user's unique nighttime scenario, depending on the need. The white or visible light mode establishes color imaging; the IR mode (invisible to humans) enables continual black-and-white imaging at night with no light pollution; and the "smart" mode enables the light to automatically change between the two modes based on perimeter events.
With the smart mode turned on, the camera maintains infrared illumination at night until an event triggers color imaging to capture critical details. This means that once human or vehicle motion is detected by the camera, it switches to regular lights and turns to full color. This helps in two critical ways: first, the camera's color imaging captures better footage which can be used to identify the intruder. Secondly, the triggered light acts as a deterrent to would-be trespassers who might potentially get startled and flee the scene.
Great potential for internal and external applications
Recording "no action" footage at night or in poorly lit areas with infrared mode, the cameras' location won't be given away, and the chance of a camera being seen and vandalized by intruders is vastly reduced. On the other hand, a bright light triggered by a security event and flooding the area helps deter intruders while recording with the same vibrant, colorful images as in daylight.
Therefore, cameras with ColorVu are ideal for both indoor and outdoor scenarios, such as warehouses, retail stores, public parks, and residential settings, where little or no movement is expected at night but discretion is desired for security cameras. Smart, automated lighting options combined with extremely accurate and sharply-focused details creates a camera that truly goes above and beyond current security industry expectations and performance.
