## Long description

Serie Ultra
Smart technologies for maximum quality
The flexibility and quality of the Ultra series makes it a great addition to any solution builder’s go to list. These cameras pack a punch, with cutting-edge technologies driving security with great detail and eliminating blind spots. They are equipped with superb imaging ability, the patented DarkFighter technology, and intelligent functions, making them the right choice for many complicated scenarios.

DarkFighter®
Hikvision’s DarkFighter technology provides high quality video imaging in very low light conditions, ensuring users can monitor and continually optimize your activities 24x7.

Rapid Focus
Rapid Focus, allows users to zoom in from a bird’s eye view to a close-up image without losing clarity, even for a split second.

Image Stabilization
Image Stabilization technology gives smooth, balanced imaging, making shakiness and poor video quality a thing of the past.

Reliable PTZ quality
High quality manufacturing ensures maximum life of the cameras. For example, the slip ring component central to the movement of the camera can last for almost ten years on average.

Harsh weather proof
The cameras are waterproof to IP67 standard and include defog and temperature control technologies.

Smart Tracking 3.0
The cameras can track a target, using the pan and tilt and AI algorithms to automatically follow them through a space.

ANPR
ANPR application captures a vehicle’s license plate in real time, compares or adds it to a pre-defined list. Once a number plate has been recognized and stored, an appropriate action can be predefined, such as opening a gate, adding a cost, or generating an alert.
