There are two big chip technology lethal problems in monitoring HD video cameras

There are two fatal problems in the monitoring of high-definition video cameras. Two major fate problems: First, the key chip technology is in the hands of foreign manufacturers; second, the development attitude of China's security industry for surveillance HD cameras is still focused on the market value of these cameras. And ignore the core value of product technology. Unfortunately, these two issues have become a vicious circle in China's security industry. Due to the adoption of foreign chips, the low risk of investment will make the domestic security industry unwilling to invest in the basic development of this technology field. The large foreign companies that supply these key chips have made great profits in China's security market, which has given these factories a stronger capital advantage. Even if the domestic security industry devotes itself, it will become even more because of technical barriers. Impossible.

2011 will be a key year for the transition of the surveillance camera industry. Digitization, networking, and high-definition of more than 5 megapixels will be the basic performance requirements for surveillance cameras. High integration and reconfigurability will be the mainstream of the surveillance camera industry. Due to the sluggish international economy, especially the advanced countries in Europe, America, Japan and the security industry have been hit hard, which opened up a rare opportunity for China's development of high-definition video camera technology. At present, several major foreign large-scale factories supplying key cameras for surveillance HD cameras have been affected by the economic downturn and have slowed their investment in this technology field. There is no definite timetable for when chips with good performance, low prices, and future market requirements can be supplied. These foreign giants only want to use their advantages of technological monopoly, on the one hand to fully combat and prevent new competition, on the other hand to use existing products to optimize and reduce the product performance requirements in an attempt to extend the life of existing products , continue to repackage old products to cope with customs clearance. Of course, this phenomenon is only temporary. As long as the economic situation improves, it is generally estimated to be around 18 months to two years. These large foreign companies will return to their original pace, rapidly develop new and better products, and continue to monopolize this industry through long-term replacement.

In recent years, China’s chip industry has made many impressive progress, but we look at the Chinese chip industry in a serious way. We still feel that this is the biggest pain in the development of China’s information industry. This has also relatively affected China. Security industry technology development. The security industry has always been a highly autonomous industry. In the United States, for example, the United States security industry does not use imported products or technologies, nor does it use common standards in the commercial field, such as MPEG4 or 1080P. However, the United States strongly supports general commercial chip companies outside the security industry to sell security products to China in order to weaken the autonomy of the Chinese security industry. When the key is necessary, the U.S. chips will occupy the advantages of high-end markets and key facilities in China. It will use the new US security system throughout China to become an extension of US homeland security and serve the United States. It can be seen that the development of independent core chips for surveillance HD cameras is an urgent task for China.

The comprehensive development of HD security technology in the network monitoring of high-definition video data transmission, the restrictions mainly come from the network bandwidth, and now many companies have adopted fiber as a transmission medium, thus breaking the previous 100M bandwidth can only carry about 5 Road HD at the same time Image, if you meet multiple visitors at the same time to access the video in the video surveillance storage, then the status quo is very worrying. Therefore, in the face of high-definition video surveillance images, only with fiber optic transmission can ensure smoothness.

For devices that store high-definition data sources, two methods are generally used: distributed local storage and storage arrays.

Usually, the local distributed storage means that the video images of each monitoring point are stored in the storage device respectively. For example, points A and B are divided. To see point A, the stored video needs to go to the A machine, and the B point to watch. It will go to B machine. Although inconvenient, it solved the HD transmission problem in a large program. For storage arrays, unified video management platforms are required to achieve unified storage and storage, and it is very convenient to perform storage access on a fiber-optic network.

Conclusion The current high-definition camera technology is getting mature, from the video conferencing, plant monitoring to the community security are inseparable from its presence. For home security monitoring, it also occupies a very important position. It is believed that in the near future, high-definition will surely replace the analog surveillance camera as the leader of video surveillance.
