Reliance on market demand to constantly update product upgrades

After years of hard work, the development of Suizhong Video has achieved fruitful results, and its market position has been gradually consolidated. Among them are the hard work of the people in Suizhong and the company's constant attention to changes in the market's needs. Continuous updating of products and upgrading of technology are inextricably linked. In order to meet the needs of different customer groups, the company first introduced Titan series products with high cost performance to the market, and later launched an upgraded version of the Titan series, Athena. Athena is specifically designed for high-end security and applied to high-definition digital security. , To solve the current multi-signal mixed input security industry, the output directly to the large-screen splicing system, support for powerful image processing, a platform at the same time reflects the practical application of high-definition image applications and HD security.

Compared with Titan, the advantages of Athena products are even more obvious. In terms of image processing capabilities, input scale, and integrated control of protocols, they have greatly exceeded Titan's previous design architecture. At the same time Athena is also a combination of hardware and software products, Athena series of high-definition digital integrated platform can effectively solve the current use of conventional security matrix, network high-definition decoding equipment, high-definition matrix and simple image stitching processor stacked up to achieve a large screen Some problems that cannot be solved when splicing and signals are displayed on the wall, such as the Athena integrated digital platform can access more than ten kinds of signal sources at the same time in the hardware layer, and can decode video signals of HD network fixed cameras, high-definition network domes and other products. , It can also decode high-definition IP signal source (with image terminal) to achieve long-distance transmission functions and access to various signals. Athena integrates all-real-time high-definition image mosaic processing application functions in one. At present, domestic and foreign companies can use a fully embedded card design stand-alone support the full-HD (1080P@60Hz) 128-channel input and 72-channel output scale only Beijing Yuzhong Video One. In product improvement, the company has also maintained in-depth exchanges and interactions with colleagues in the security industry, including the implementation of the project, to carry out some product features to upgrade and improve, or in accordance with the specific requirements of the user and then OEM custom development.

Since its entry into the security industry in 2011, Suizhong Video has always attached great importance to the company's independent research and development capabilities, has a strong technical force reserve and forward-looking research, and is technologically advanced.

In the Athena product line, every technology used by the company is the highest in the country. We cooperate directly with chip manufacturers from abroad, and even custom-develop the chip of Suizhong video, which has become SMIC's security industry. Maintain important conditions for leading edge.

Entering the security industry, the company will use its graphics applications to the fullest extent. Zheng Chengfu hopes that the high-definition digital security products of Suizhong Video will not only achieve high and standard definition, but also mix digital and analog signals, as well as multiple devices. In the hybrid application mode, full compatibility is achieved. Finally, on the basis of a powerful application of intelligent functions such as image enhancement processing, the construction method of “big, dazzling, intelligent, and simple” is realized in the true sense, and finally in high-definition, Intelligent security applications push images and other content to a large-screen display system, so that high-definition images and surveillance and combat are perfectly integrated.

Manager Zheng stated that the monitoring industry has seen the development of the visible and understandable direction, so the emphasis is on a high-definition intelligent application and operational combat capabilities. Athena series of digital integrated platforms can enable users to "what you see is what you get", and can achieve preview, capture and other functions, to break through the lack of visual preview of the current large-screen control software defects; while the system supports the level of the mainstream monitoring matrix Joint control management, PTZ protocol control, audio and video linkage control and other functions; to fully meet the growing variety of signal sources in the security application system, the greater the resolution of the signal; the system also has 1080P HD network decoding capabilities. Athena series products are highly integrated, breaking the traditional scattered, stacked, low-efficiency architecture operating mode, re-building a more comprehensive processing platform suitable for digital HD security industry.

11 advantages: Welcome to the future high-definition surveillance market

Since the Olympic Games and the World Expo, as well as the concept of intelligent object-linked concepts such as smart earth and digital city, and the proposal of projects, higher requirements and targets have been put forward for applications in the system.

As an alternative to analog closed-circuit systems, IP security systems generally suffer from network delays, complex networking, and poor image quality. The main reason is that the chaotic communication protocols make large-scale networking and interconnection costs high and maintenance costs higher. It is difficult to integrate deeply into users' other business applications.

In the past 11 years, HD-SDI's front-end and back-end HD products have begun to promote sales, and they have been gradually applied under the two major advantages of their full use of image quality and real-time performance. Although they were initially developed due to the low cost of SDI products, they were mainly High-end applications, but combined with domestic demand and upstream technology development, its civilian trend is inevitable. The biggest difference between the SDI security system and the IP camera security system is that the SDI system maintains the characteristics of real-time lossless high-definition in the collection, transmission, and output display links, and its back-end needs to be networked for storage and integration applications. This is similar to analog CCTV. The security system model is consistent.

In addition, the advantages of SDI cameras and IP cameras can be analyzed. They can form strong complementarities between them. IP systems can be deployed and networked easily. As the terminator of analog era, its breakthrough in resolution is one of the greatest contributions; SDI The biggest advantage of the system is that it ensures front-end HD acquisition, high-definition transmission, and high-definition display applications. It now appears that SDI cameras have weak technical aspects such as weak communication bidirectionality, near cable-based transmission distance, and other technical issues. With the increase in industry demand, the increase in the number of product manufacturers, and SDI-related chip manufacturers will continue to break through technology, improve performance while reducing costs, so that it truly becomes a popular, even lower than the cost of IP solutions.

Come for HD monitoring

In the face of the competition wave of high-definition surveillance market in the future, Suizhong Video Co., by virtue of its technology accumulation in high-definition image applications over the years, has created 11 major advantages for Athena in the security industry:

With regard to the input, it has absolute advantages, with up to 10 types of signals and interfaces supported by the product, and up to 128 full-HD input capabilities.

In terms of output, the product supports a maximum of 72 display units (ie supports 72 channels of full HD output at the same time).

The most powerful image processing function in the field of security applications can effectively achieve real-time black-out, seamless switching, and support image processing, such as: segmentation, overlay, roaming, windowing, mobile, high-definition background map overlay.

Fourth, superior stability, based on a fully-embedded FPGA architecture, can boot into normal operating state within five seconds of booting. Power failure automatically restores the previous operating state.

Fifth, support for ultra-high resolution dynamic image applications, DVI dual-link channel input resolution can reach 3840X2400, can well support the current GIS, GPS, MES and other high-resolution images on the wall display applications.

Sixth, supporting the application of ultra-high resolution static maps, the highest unilateral side of static maps can reach up to 65535 pixels. Under normal circumstances, it can support 30000X20000 static map overlay display (BMP/24 bit).

Seventh, support the current mainstream PTZ control protocol, compatible with mainstream analog matrix control and trunk management.

Eighth, support the input of the optic fibre interface, support the output of the optic fibre interface, can expand the application easily or be used in cascade connection network.

Ninth, support input decoding of IP streaming media, currently on the standard H. 264, MPEG-4/RTSP protocol cameras can support decoding, non-standard need to provide protocols for access development. (Industry video coding standards have become more and more standard. However, based on ONVIF\PSIA or China's SVAC standard, it is necessary to interface with the platform system to achieve PTZ control and device resource list sharing.)

Tenth, Athena series products completely open the control protocol and SDK of the equipment, and provide DEMO software. The own system can support the C/S and B/S architecture. The business application layer can be independently developed and designed by the integrator and combined with specific services. application. The control software provided by Suizhong Video has truly integrated big screen management, image processing, and security control.

Eleventh, the product is the most flexible in terms of system architecture, all adopting blade card design and flexible configuration; that is, it can be deployed centrally or distributed and centralized.

Three requirements for high-definition digital security

Meet the current high-definition digital security system, multi-signal format coexistence, multi-resolution coexistence application model; use a variety of input service board to support a variety of image signal access (mainly CVBS \ VGA \ SDI \ IP, etc.), The system integration has been improved, the complexity of the system has been simplified, the structure of the system has been optimized, intermediate links have been reduced, and the system input compatibility has been highlighted.

Meet the current high-definition digital security system splicing display unit, high-definition image processing application model; dual high-speed backplane bus and fully embedded hardware design, the system uses a fully modular design to ensure the stable and reliable operation of the system, but also to ensure large-scale High-definition image lossless real-time processing and stitching on wall display applications.

Meet the current compatibility and integration of the original analog system and other subsystems while supporting digital high-definition hybrid applications; we not only exert the ultimate in input and output, but also complete the original control and compatibility aspects of the security system. Compatibility ensures that any digital HD system can be deployed arbitrarily and can be flexibly upgraded to any security system, enabling it to achieve high-definition application results while ensuring the greatest advantages of the system!

Based on future trends, planning company development

Facing the future, Zheng Chengfu believes that intelligence will be a major direction for security development. As can be seen from the 2009 National Intelligent Transportation Development Code issued by the state, intelligence is particularly evident in the field of license plate recognition and electronic police. Therefore, intelligence will be used as one of the main directions for the future development of SMIC's video products. For example, in the field of cameras, the company will develop the camera from a single eye function to a mode that gradually adds brain to the eyes. The camera installed at the intersection has Intelligent analysis capabilities, for some special situations, such as vehicle retrograde, personnel density, road conditions, and other pictures, text form records, and then uploaded to the platform to be applied, in the signal source acquisition stage, the camera will be pre-screening, logical judgment And intelligent analysis.

In the future, all cameras used in safe cities and even smart buildings are equivalent to the eyes of intelligence. With so many brains working together, the design focus of the monitoring center platform software will be placed on rules and logical concepts, such as where Many people, where there are few people, what happened, the camera will automatically send these conditions to the platform, the platform will automatically tune out, the next step will prompt the operator, what happened, what should be noted to achieve a certain Early warning and intelligent monitoring purposes. This will be a more challenging development direction for the next generation of security systems. At the same time, highly-developed intelligent products will have certain requirements on the distribution of the network, transmission bandwidth, etc. At the same time, increasing clarity will be a necessary path.

The application of large splicing displays, image enhancement processing, and flexible and rapid image processing and application are the main research and development contents of our current development. We must not only have forward-looking plans, but also have to solve the current major problems and bottlenecks, based on reality and demand-oriented. Need to be able to really promote high-definition digital images to better integrate into the security business applications, this is what we are doing now. For example, with the addition of SDI signals, the addition of VGA signals, the addition of DVI conference signals, and even the addition of ultra-high resolution signals, it is also necessary to be compatible with the original analog matrix system and to decode the network video signals on the wall. Already realized in the Athena series of products, through the Athena series of products can create a high-definition, real-time meeting command and monitoring system integrated application system.

According to Zheng, the company’s products are still focused on high-definition image transmission and processing applications in the mid-end and back-end applications. In HD monitoring, Sinzhong Video provides excellent products and services to its core partners. Partners have added HD capabilities to create a high-definition, intelligent integrated platform.

At present, the equipment we provide is the most powerful in terms of full resolution compatibility of the image and full resolution of the display device. It not only achieves full compatibility and access of the hardware layer, but also enables various signal sources to be fully utilized. Help partners to achieve a certain degree of intelligence on the software platform, such as: real-time detection of the input image signal, image pre-analysis, image enhancement processing, image local amplification, regional linkage and collaborative work can be achieved.
