WiseStream

Intelligent Compression, Optimized Performance

WiseStream is an intelligent video compression technology that
integrates Hanwha Vision’s proprietary AI into the video encoding process.

When Data Overload Threatens Performance

As surveillance system expand, raw video data can quickly overwhelm bandwidth and storage capacity. Without optimization, even the best cameras risk lag, dropped frames, and excessive costs. Managing video shouldn’t mean compromising quality – and that’s where WiseStream steps in.

Adaptive Compression for Every Scene

WiseStream automatically adjusts compression based on scene motion and detail, ensuring both clarity and effi ciency in every frame.

Reliable forensic clarity

Preserve fine details essential for accurate forensic search and post-incident analysis

Operational efficiency

Reduce bandwidth and storage load with optimized, noise-free video data

Enhanced analytics accuracy

Deliver cleaner inputs for AI algorithms,improving detection precision and event reliability

The AI-powered Difference

Conventional data reduction techniques typically adjust compression based on general motion across the entire frame. It often dedicates high-quality encoding to background motion that is irrelevant to the actual subjects of interest.

WiseStream leverages advanced AI analytics to intelligently distinguish between regions of interest and static backgrounds. By recognizing specific objects and motion patterns, it dynamically tunes bitrate and compression ratios to focus quality exactly where it matters most.

Here’s how WiseStream’s core mechanism works:

 

  • AI Object Detection: An AI model precisely identifies user-defined key objects such
as people and vehicles, within the video stream.
  • Differential Quality Application: The Region of Interest (ROI), where objects are
detected, is encoded at a high quality to preserve detail. In contrast, the Non-ROI is
subjected to a higher compression rate to reduce data volume.
  • Efficient Static Area Compression: The system’s AI-based analysis minimizes
unnecessary data generation in static areas, ensuring efficient compression of the
entire scene.

It works seamlessly with H.264 and H.265 to maintain compatibility and maximize efficiency across all Hanwha Vision devices.

The result is crisp, efficient video that reduces bandwidth strain, cuts storage costs, and
keeps your system performing at its best.
