Hikvision's Guanlan AI Cuts False Alarms 90%, Storage Costs 50%

Hangzhou – September 10, 2026 -- Hikvision's Guanlan large-scale AI models have cut false perimeter alarms by 90% while doubling detection range compared with traditional cameras, more than a year after the platform's launch.

DeepinViewX cameras halve repeated alarms on the same target

The edge-deployed DeepinViewX cameras run the Guanlan model directly, reducing false triggers from animals, weather and vegetation that plague legacy perimeter systems. Detection range doubles versus conventional cameras, and repeated alarms on a single target drop by half. The system pairs optical sensors for short perimeters with thermal, radar and fiber-optic sensing for longer distances.
