Uniview has now released 2MP/4MP H.265 + U-code series IP Cameras, including mini bullet, vandal-proof fixed dome and turret fixed dome. This new series are high performance cameras with low costs based on the Hisilicon H.265 chipset. The cameras support U-code smart compression and include four basic smart functions.

H.265 and U-code smart compression

H.265, known as High Efficiency Video Coding, can reduce up to 50% bandwidth but keep high image quality. U-code is an optimized deep compression technology released by Uniview, which can reduce up to 95% bandwidth and no details missing. U-code uses IRP (Intelligent Region Perception) to detect motion in each frame so that scenes containing interesting information could be preserved while the other relatively static area such as lawns, white walls could be squeezed to save storage.

Smart functions

The four smart functions in H.265 IP camera series are face detection, intrusion, crossing line, and people counting. Crossing Line and Intrusion will detect behaviors which break configured rules, and Face Detection will detect faces appear in configured area. When objects are detected, IP camera will trigger optional alarms of email, alarm output, storage, snapshot, or ftp upload.

At the NVR side, it supports retrieval record by different smart events (crossing line, intrusion, and face detection). In the upcoming version, Uniview NVR can support retrieval snapshot for preview. Regarding to People counting, IP camera counts the numbers of entry and exit and outputs to Uniview NVR for data statistics by configurable time period.
