Success Stories
Dickson County Sheriff’s Office Locks Down 360° Surveillance Coverage with Hanwha Vision IP and LPR Camera Systems
“These camera systems are all about security and safety. I have three rules: everybody goes home at the end of their shift, nobody dies, and we stay out of federal court. These cameras help us do that. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then the right video is the whole book.”
- Dwayne Hayes, Chief Jailer, Dickson County

Bi-spectrum AI Thermal Cameras for Perimeter Protection
Provides 24/7, all-weather intrusion detection on the perimeter
The thermal lens detects heat signatures to flag suspicious activity even in complete darkness, heavy fog, or obscured by visual barriers (e.g., bushes). The visual lens then provides a high-resolution image for immediate verification and identification. This single device offers a two-stage verification process, critical for early warning systems.
Anti-ligature Cameras for High-Risk Areas
Secure, hardened surveillance for isolation cells, inmate rooms, and shower facilities where safety is paramount
The specialized, corner-mount design eliminates points of attachment (ligature points), preventing self-harm attempts. When combined with Wisenet 9 AI, these cameras can run analytics like loitering detection or slip-and-fall detection in real-time, sending immediate alerts to staff.
AI PTZ Plus Cameras
Surveillance of large, open areas such as prison yards, common areas, or main corridors
Provides expansive coverage with AI Auto Tracking, ensuring a subject remains in focus even during movement. Exceptional image quality and powerful zoom capture evidence-grade imagery over long distances.
Multi-sensor/panoramic cameras
Multi-sensor/panoramic cameras utilize four high megapixel sensors to provide a seamless wide angle viewpoint with up to a 220° field of view.

Wisenet 9
The Foundation for Next Generation Security
Unlike many manufacturers that rely on third -party chips, Hanwha Vision creates its own System on Chips (SoCs) to retain control over both performance and security.
This enables the company to customize AI algorithms specifically for surveillance purposes, resulting in reduced power consumption, quicker processing, and improved privacy measures, such as Dynamic Privacy Masking (DPM).
Hanwha Vision’s Wisenet 9 is the latest proprietary SoC, reflecting over two decades of in-house chipset innovation. Devices powered by Wisenet 9 are tailored for industries that require high security and intelligent analytics.
