HANGZHOU, China, Aug. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Hikvision has introduced its latest innovation in low-light imaging, the DarkFighter 2.0 technology, which uses AI Image Signal Processing (ISP) algorithms to optimize night-time imagery. Additionally, it is bringing a new generation of DeepinView cameras to the market. These new cameras feature enhanced performance and a range of intelligent features.

Evolution of DarkFighter technology
The journey of Hikvision’s DarkFighter technology began with the original DarkFighter cameras, equipped with a large sensor to capture bright images in the dark. Subsequent developments introduced DarkFighterX and DarkFighterS, which offer better image clarity and color reproduction in low light.
DarkFighter 2.0 is a significant leap forward. It integrates advanced AI ISP to overcome common optical challenges in dynamic scenes. The resulting image and video quality is excellent regardless of the light conditions and movement speeds.
What will DarkFighter 2.0 change?
DarkFighter 2.0 enables high-quality, 24/7 colorful video capture in varying light. It provides precise details of objects in the dark, even when they move at different paces. The power of DarkFighter 2.0 is particularly effective in dynamic and complex scenes with ultra-low light, making it ideal for protecting places such as crossroads and parking lots around the clock. For instance, the technology can now capture the plate number of a speeding car in the dark while preserving details of other objects in the same scene. This was nearly impossible to achieve with conventional CCTV cameras.
DarkFighter 2.0’s outstanding performance can be attributed to its new features. For example, the SharpMotion feature minimizes image noise and motion blur, while the ShotN feature helps capture clear images of various moving objects through flexible exposure settings. The technology also features Auto Wide Dynamic Range (AWDR) for smarter light adaptation and high frame rates for smoother motion capture.
Cameras empowered by DarkFighter 2.0
DarkFighter 2.0 is being integrated across Hikvision’s camera lineups, starting with the Gen-2 DeepinView models. These new DeepinView cameras come equipped with full DarkFighter 2.0 features and other enhancements, such as dual AI capabilities. This dual AI functionality enables the simultaneous operation of two AI algorithms. For example, perimeter protection and ANPR can operate simultaneously on one Gen-2 DeepinView camera at a parking lot, making it versatile for complex applications.
Hikvision’s launch of DarkFighter 2.0 technology and Gen-2 DeepinView cameras marks a new era in low-light imaging. These new products offer unparalleled image quality, advanced AI capabilities, and versatile features, set to provide unmatched performance and flexibility for a wide range of security demands.
DarkFighter 2.0 will soon be available in DeepinView-Series Omni Cameras, Ultra-Series X6 Cameras, and Ultra-Series PTZs, too. For more information, please visit the DarkFighter 2.0 core technology page.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Sept. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Global AI Summit (GAIN) in Riyadh concluded on a high, after the summit welcomed more than 30,000 delegates from across the globe over three days. The live stream of the summit, organized by the Saudi Data and AI Authority (SDAIA), received 3.7m views.

Building on the success of previous editions, GAIN 2024 featured more than 450 speakers from 100 countries, participating in 150 sessions. It also witnessed over 25 launches and announcements, and facilitated the signing of over 80 agreements and Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs).
The summit has grown exponentially since its inception in 2020. Its growing prominence reflects the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s role in advancing AI capabilities as it positions itself as a global leader in this space.
The key output from the summit was the need for governments and policy makers to take global action to ensure that AI technology evolves for the good of humanity. Central to responsible evolution is an ethical framework and robust governance.
To support the advancement of AI ethics and governance, SDAIA announced the Riyadh Charter of Artificial Intelligence for the Islamic World in collaboration with the Islamic World Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (ICESCO). This promotes ethical AI grounded in Islamic values and principles, as well as sustainable development through international cooperation.
SDAIA has played a pivotal role in forging key collaborations to strengthen local and regional AI solutions, signing MoUs with Microsoft Arabia to develop Arabic language models, IBM for a Center of Excellence in Generative AI technologies, and NVIDIA to scale AI infrastructure across the Kingdom.
The summit also marked several major milestones. Alongside the unveiling of ALLaM, the world’s most advanced Arabic Language Model, other diverse initiatives such as the Global AI Community, the THAKAI Platform, and guidelines for addressing deepfake technology.
Furthermore, the launch of the Generative AI Center of Excellence by the Digital Cooperation Organization (DCO), the agreement to open an International Center for AI Research and Ethics (ICAIRE) as a UNESCO Category 2 Center, further underscored the impact of GAIN 2024.
The summit itself provided the platform for companies from all over the world to showcase the latest AI technologies and innovations, including AI generated avatars, AI generated artwork, and even Robotic bar staff serving beverages.
The summit closed with an inspirational speech from the Director of Saudi Arabia’s National Information Center, His Excellency Dr. Esam Alwagait, in which he thanked participants:
“Your candid perspectives have not only inspired us with the vision of what lies ahead, but have also grounded us in the realities we must face. Together, we have not only imagined the future of AI, but have also made it real by addressing the challenges and identifying the enablers needed to truly unlock its potential.”
He added:
“It has been incredibly inspiring to see the world come together here in Riyadh, united by momentum to make AI work for everyone. The commitment to collaborative action has been evident throughout the summit.” 
The success of GAIN 2024 ensures that the Kingdom’s AI infrastructure will be significantly strengthened and has cemented Saudi Arabia position at the center of global AI.
