AxxonSoft and Hanwha Technology Partnership for Advanced Video Surveillance

Quick Overview and Key Benefits of the AxxonSoft + Hanwha Video Surveillance Partnership

What Makes the Partnership Unique

AxxonSoft software has long provided deep integration with Hanwha CCTV and Wisenet Hanwha devices, supporting enhanced camera functions that improve performance, accelerate investigations, and lower operating costs.

The partnership ensures:

• Broad compatibility with Hanwha security cameras, including AI-powered and deep-learning models.
• Optimized handling of Hanwha camera streams, metadata, and edge analytics.
• Seamless ingestion of events and AI metadata from Hanwha Vision cameras.
• Joint solutions designed for high-performance, real-world deployments.

Key Advantages

AxxonSoft + Hanwha joint solutions deliver:

• AI-driven insights at the edge: Reduce server load while improving detection accuracy.
• Lower TCO: Smart codecs and distributed processing significantly reduce bandwidth and storage usage.
• Future-proof deployments: Support for the latest generation of Hanwha camera firmware and AI features.
• Fast, reliable investigations: Accelerated investigations using metadata from Hanwha bullet camera, LPR, etc.
• Scalability: Suitable for deployments of various size, benefiting from compression and analytics to reduce bandwidth/storage needs.
• Enhanced operator efficiency: Automated tracking, robust analytics, and intuitive visualization tools.

How It Works

The AxxonSoft platform connects tightly with advanced capabilities of Hanwha video surveillance hardware, including AI analytics, situation monitoring, LPR, and smart codecs.

• Deep integration with Hanwha’s advanced camera features including AI analytics, smart codecs, LPR, and situation analysis.
• Optimized bandwidth and storage use through WiseStream II compression.
• Distributed computing with edge analytics for reduced server hardware requirements.
• Accurate vehicle recognition and event detection through camera-side AI.
• Enhanced situational awareness with PTZ auto-tracking and fisheye dewarping.
• Cost-efficient deployments across large or bandwidth-challenged environments.

Feature Integration Details

Smart Video Compression with WiseStream II

Hanwha WiseStream II is an advanced video compression technology based on motion analytics to maintain video quality while lowering data demands. It can reduce the data size by more than 50% when used with the H.264 codec and has an additional data savings of 25% or more when used with H.265. It can further provide up to 99% data reduction in low-motion scenes. WiseStream II also reduces noise and minimizes image quality degradation, which are common problems of traditional image compression technology, especially image noise in low light settings.

Edge-Based Video Analytics

Edge-based video analytics on Hanwha Vision cameras (which filters and processes data locally on a camera) reduces the burden of transferring, processing, and storing large amounts of data on a server, thereby increasing efficiency, saving time, and reducing the server costs of analyzing data.

AxxonSoft software supports Hanwha video detection tools that analyze the scene and alert operators to significant events, reducing fatigue and increasing the efficiency of security staff.

Supported Hanwha analytics within AxxonSoft:

• Line crossing
• Object removal
• Region entrance/exit
• Face detection
• Unattended baggage
• Tamper detection (defocus, masking, redirection, hacking)

License Plate Recognition (LPR)

AxxonSoft products receive and store vehicle license plate numbers recognized by Hanwha LPR camera algorithms. This information is used in different scenarios from controlling vehicle access to a facility, to finding stolen cars, to automatically recording traffic violations in city-wide installations. Similar to the edge scene analytics, the camera-based LPR helps reduce server hardware requirements, bringing to life all advantages of distributed computing.

Tag&Track PTZ Object Tracking

AxxonSoft Tag&Track Pro enables seamless auto-tracking of objects:

• Fixed Hanwha cameras detect objects and transmit coordinates.
• PTZ cameras automatically follow targets in real time.
• Operators get both the “big picture” and zoomed-in details simultaneously.

Well-suited for large, dynamic environments such as airports, perimeters, and stadiums.

Fisheye Image Dewarping

Hanwha’s 360° fisheye cameras provide full-scene visibility with minimal installation points. AxxonSoft enhances this with GPU-accelerated dewarping, converting circular fisheye images into intuitive, “flat” views.

Advantages:

• No additional CPU load on client or server.
• Display multiple virtual PTZ views from a single camera.
• Replace several fixed cameras with a single fisheye unit.
• Ideal for retail, open areas, or large rooms.
