Axis nextgen chipset delivers an array of new capabilities
and features
In its continued effort to innovate and meet market needs, Axis
Communications, the global leader in network video, announced the
launch of the 7th generation of their chipset. ARTPEC 7 will bring
an array of new capabilities and features to Axis network cameras,
namely even better imaging, enhanced security features, powerful
compression and ability to run analytics on the edge. Moreover,
since the chip is fully developed by Axis, it provides a layer of
control that is crucial for effective cybersecurity.
“We’re one of only a few manufacturers that develops our own
chipset, therefore the creation of ARTPEC 7 is a key differentiator
for us and a significant benefit to our customers,” said Fredrik
Nilsson, VP, Americas, Axis Communications, Inc. “In this
generation of ARTPEC we’ve included many important features, such
as upgraded security. Also, unlike other chips, it’s not a generic
design. Rather, it’s 100% optimized for creating high-quality Axis
network video solutions. This launch truly exemplifies our vision
to innovate for a smarter, safer world.”
Even better imaging under any conditions in any modeDue
to a completely redesigned image processing pipeline, the ARTPEC 7
further improves all the signature Axis technologies that have been
created to address difficult light conditions. For example:
- Lightfinder 2.0 will deliver
more saturated and realistic colors than ever before in low-light,
along with the sharpest images of moving objects even in the
darkest areas.
- Forensic WDR will provide
clearer images of moving objects as well as enhanced detail in
backlit scenes, or scenes with big differences between the lightest
and darkest areas.
- Increased sensitivity to light
also significantly extends the range of illumination for Axis
cameras with IR.
Enhanced security featuresARTPEC 7 enables “built-in”
security features for Axis cameras, including signed firmware so
only secure authorized firmware can be installed, and secure boot,
which prevents booting of unauthorized firmware.
Powerful compressionFuture Axis cameras will also let
users choose between H.264 and H.265 video encoding depending on
what best suits their system and surveillance needs. Either
encoding standard in combination with Axis Zipstream technology
will now require even lower bandwidth and storage space without
sacrificing image quality. In addition, users are free to
reevaluate their choice of codec at any time if their requirements
should change.
Impressive analytics on-the-edgeFinally, this chip
features a real-time object detection engine that will make it
possible for Axis and Axis partners to develop powerful analytics
to automatically detect and differentiate between people, faces and
objects.
Moving forward, ARTPEC 7 will be the basis for the majority of
Axis network video products. One of the first cameras to include
this chip is the AXIS P1375, which is set to be showcased at ISC
West at booth #14051.
