    Worlds First Review - Dahua - IPC-Color4K-X / DH-IPC-HFW5849T1-ASE-LED - Full Color 4K Camera

    Interesting thing: a few days ago when I was on Andy firmware page, I found that there is a new dedicated firmware for Color4K-T-S2-black... this is meta-taurus (not taurus or volt) firmware line, it means this is for a new SOC / camera variant released after 5442-S3 (with AcuPick and Video...

    not the same - Full VMD internally do many shots, and even 5442-S3 internally do car plate OCR to find the best shot (sharp one with fully OCR'ed plate number). Car snapshot and car plate snapshot can be taken from different video frames by Full VMD algorithm. OCR result is not saved /...

    PTZ4E25X-T180 Review

    No two.. panorama (single channel like in normal 5849-A180) and PTZ... panorama channel have also that strange Dahua specific 180 degree resolution / ratio and with horizontal compression... the only sign that it have 2 separate SOCs / processors are separate RAM/ROM sizes for each channel.

    PTZ4E25X-T180 Review

    For what 2 IPs? Even if camera have 2 separate SOC's (processors) for each channel due power processing reasons (like in Hubble series), it simply works as one camera with one IP and 2 channels (like in thermal cams)... IVS in linkage mode is shared, PTZ reacts at objects detected by panorama...

    Dahua recommendation

    ps. animal support (dedicated AI models in IVS for animals) are supported only on 5xx2-S3 and 7xxx-X cams.. there is no NVR with AI animal models.. but if you have big dogs, most Dahua cams treats them as humans :)

    Dahua recommendation

    Three things: - Your cameras have basic AI - mostly IVS (perimeter protection) with human and vehicle filtering. As I understand You simply don't use this feature because Your actual VMS (synology surveillance station???) don't support them? And probably You never configured them to work...

    Is this NVR selection satisfying? (Dahua or an alternative) ?

    As I wrote this is Full video meta data. Go to smart plan in camera, disable acupick and after reboot select video meta data. No more configuration needed. Data received and displayed by any 5xxx NVR. In ai search you have options like human / faces / motor vehicle / non motor vehicle search

    Roast My Design Plan, Or Suggest Improvements :)

    A few days ago there was thread where someone wanted to use only 180 degrees cams (fixed and PTZ + panorama). Read my replies there, there is no sense to duplicate why 180 cams are bad idea...

    Is this NVR selection satisfying? (Dahua or an alternative) ?

    I used this camera model... please remember this have Z4E telephoto optics - so they are like 2x-8x on smartphones (normal varifocal models -ZE/ZHE are like 0.5x -2x on smartphones). Z4E telephoto varifocal capture 15 to 45 degree horizontal Field of View - they are ideal to capture car plates...

    Is this NVR selection satisfying? (Dahua or an alternative) ?

    If You have ANPR cams (dedicated one or WizMind-X 7xxx-X) then any NVR 5-series or up (5xxx-4ks2, 5xxx-EI, 5xxx-XI, 6xx-XI) can receive / search that data. If You have only WizMind-S cams (5442-S3) then You can have partially (graphical plate snapshots) LPR received by any specified NVR (screen...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua - IPC-Color4K-X / DH-IPC-HFW5849T1-ASE-LED - Full Color 4K Camera

    Dahua is blocking reverting to older firmwares based on older baseline (due security concerns). I thing the only way to downgrade in that situation, is doing it by RS232 port on camera motherboard - you can manually flash firmware... ps. never tried - so I'm not 100% sure it will work...

    alternative camera recommendation

    No one on this forum will recommend Reolink camera.. Especially ones with high resolution and small sensor size (wrong resolution to sensor size ratio) - they will have very bad night performance. Also there is no good recommendation for 4 PTZ cams (why?), 20 fixed lenses (why why???) one and...
