Hikvision launches "Guolan encoding" to cope with the rising prices of hard drives.

Hikvision representatives stated that, recently, due to the continued growth in global AI algorithm construction and data storage demand, the cost of some storage products in the third quarter has increased to a certain extent. Hikvision will continue to monitor market changes and strive to ensure product stability and customer interests. In response to the challenges brought by the increase in hard drive prices, Hikvision is continuously promoting technological innovation and introducing the "Guanglan Coding" video coding technology driven by large models, covering both front-end and back-end products. With the precise coding ability of AI to ensure image quality and intelligent application effects, it can effectively reduce video bitrate. Compared to H.265, it can save over 50% of storage space, with the potential to save up to 90% in certain scenarios, significantly reducing customer storage resource consumption and overall construction costs. Guanglan Coding uses large models to accurately extract objects, applying different quantization system strategies to objects and backgrounds to precisely protect the region of interest. It utilizes H.26X texture coding technology to greatly reduce storage costs, ensure critical information is not lost, and does not affect intelligent analysis. Guanglan Coding is widely compatible, decoding with the H.26X standard to ensure coding accurately restores reality.
