Hikvision launches groundbreaking "AcuSeek NVR": Redefining video retrieval with large multimodal AI models
Large multimodal AI models enable the "Search by Text" era
The AcuSeek NVR leverages Hikvision's proprietary Guanlan large-scale AI model technology, utilizing massive parameter training and sample datasets to establish cross-modal text-image comprehension capabilities. Users can simply input a single phrase or keyword such as "person on a phone call," "white van," or "person walking a dog," and the system rapidly extracts subject features from video footage while aligning them semantically to achieve efficient retrieval.
Four core advantages defining industry standards
Search Broadly: The system covers high-frequency security subjects including people, motor vehicles, and non-motor vehicles, while supporting open semantic searches for specific items such as wheeled suitcases and small carts, as well as anomalies like not wearing helmets when required, meeting diverse scenario requirements.
Search Accurately: Through feature alignment technology, the system precisely interprets complex descriptions such as "person wearing a hat and black clothing" or "child carrying a backpack," significantly lowering false detection rates.
Search Instantly: The system responds in seconds, rapidly locating subjects from extensive video footage and enhancing emergency response efficiency.
Search Flexibly: The system user interface provides convenient shortcuts including "Find People," "Find Vehicles," and "Find Pets," while supporting user-customizable search phrases with an extremely low operational threshold that requires no professional training.
Unlocking intelligent value, from security to everyday life
The AcuSeek NVR can be widely applied across physical security, traffic management, and community service sectors. Examples include:
Physical Security: Rapidly screening object characteristics such as "black SUV with round headlights" to assist investigations.
Traffic Management: Searching for "scooters" and "motorcycles" that have entered restricted road sections to enhance enforcement efficiency.
Community Service: Helping residents locate lost pets or missing items, enhancing community service capabilities.
Leo Chen, the product manager at Hikvision, stated: "The launch of the AcuSeek NVR addresses the pain points of traditional video retrieval that relies on manual annotation and suffers from low efficiency. Moving forward, we will continue optimizing AI model algorithms, expanding into more vertical scenarios, and promoting the deep integration of AI technology with security applications."
Pre-orders for the AcuSeek NVR are now available worldwide. For additional information, please visit the Hikvision official website or contact your local distributor.

CUPW Presents New Global Offers to Canada Post
OTTAWA, ON, Aug. 20, 2025 /CNW/ - Today, negotiators for the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) returned to the bargaining table with Canada Post to present global offers for both postal bargaining units. With the help of Federal mediators, further talks are scheduled for Friday, August 22, and Monday, August 25. CUPW's latest offers come after postal workers decisively rejected Canada Post's "best and final offers" in a government-forced vote in July. "The Union remains committed to reaching negotiated settlements at the bargaining table," says Jan Simpson, CUPW National President. "CUPW's global offers provide Canada Post practical and workable solutions to expand its services and grow its revenues, while also ensuring postal workers' contributions to an important part of Canada's national infrastructure are valued." Key elements of our latest offer include: Wage increases to make up for the cost-of-living crisis; Targeted increases in the number of corporate vehicles for Rural and Suburban Mail Carriers. No worker should have to risk their safety or pay out of pocket just to do their job; Staffing changes in postal facilities to lessen Canada Post's overreliance on temporary workers who don't have stable schedules or benefits; Scheduling changes to ensure letter carriers can have a work life balance without overburdening; and We are putting forward proposals for CPC to expand services and grow the business, making the corporation stronger and more sustainable for the future. "As CUPE flight attendants have made so visibly clear, the best deals are reached at the table," adds Simpson. "CUPW is focused on ensuring good, stable jobs for all postal workers and strengthening the public post office."
