HIKVISION, a global provider of security cameras and video management solutions, will launch the '3K Smart Hybrid Light Panoramic Fisheye Camera' (model: DS-2CE52K0T-LPS) in the Japanese domestic market from June 2026. This product effectively utilizes existing analog coaxial cables to enable 360° wide-area surveillance with a single unit.
The product combines panoramic video for 360° wide-area monitoring with clear 3K high-resolution image quality. It is also equipped with a 'Smart Hybrid Light' function that automatically activates white light upon detecting human movement, enabling color video surveillance even at night. It supports security operations in various scenarios such as stores, commercial facilities, stations, and public spaces.
■ Development Background: Solving Challenges of Analog Surveillance Systems
'High image quality, wide area, nighttime color'
Currently, many facilities operate existing analog coaxial (TVI, etc.) systems, but they face issues such as 'insufficient image quality,' 'nighttime black-and-white footage making it difficult to identify perpetrators,' and 'high costs due to the need for multiple cameras to eliminate blind spots.'
HIKVISION developed this innovative analog fisheye camera to solve all these issues at once, covering all directions with a single unit while incorporating nighttime full-color shooting and a high-quality microphone.
■ Main Features of the New Product 'DS-2CE52K0T-LPS'
1. 360° Omnidirectional Surveillance with a Single View
Seamlessly monitor the entire circumference within the dome with one camera. Eliminate blind spots near walls and corners, allowing complete oversight of an entire store, office, or outdoor plaza. Significantly reduces the number of cameras needed, contributing to lower installation and construction costs.
2. Exceptional '3K Ultra-High Definition' and Superior Color Reproduction
Equipped with '3K ultra-high resolution,' far surpassing conventional 2-megapixel (1080P) class cameras. It boasts overwhelming advantages in image brightness, accurate color reproduction, and detail sharpness compared to equivalent products from other brands.
3. Advanced 'Smart Hybrid Light' for Intelligent Nighttime Security
Incorporates an advanced hybrid light (infrared LED + white warm light LED). When set to 'Smart Mode,' it monitors with inconspicuous infrared (IR) light under normal conditions. The moment a suspicious person or target enters the surveillance area, it automatically activates the white LED light.
This visually deters intruders (active deterrence) while reliably capturing the most critical moment in 'clear full-color video.' It automatically returns to infrared mode after the target leaves, minimizing light pollution for neighbors.
4. Rugged Housing (IP67 Water/Dust Resistance) and Built-in High-Quality Microphone
Standard IP67 dust and water resistance rating ensures durability in harsh outdoor environments, suitable for train platforms, outdoor plazas, and parking garage ceilings. A built-in high-performance microphone transmits clear audio through the coaxial cable, allowing recording of ambient sounds alongside video.
■ Recommended Main Installation and Application Scenarios
● Stations and Transportation Platforms/Concourses:
Monitor crowded areas with a single unit for situation confirmation during incidents and data collection for congestion mitigation.
● Supermarkets and Retail Stores:
Install near registers or store centers for anti-theft measures, ensuring store-wide traffic flow, and optimizing fixture layouts.
● Outdoor Squares and Commercial Facility Plazas:
Utilize IP67 waterproofing for safety monitoring of extensive outdoor common areas and nighttime security deterrence.
