operations. Equipped with Seagate ImagePerfect AI firmware, which means it can
record high quality, sharp video footage while simultaneously facilitating
AI-enabled NVR analytics that ensures files gathered through video surveillance
are properly stored and easily accessible.
The SkyHawk storage capacity ranges from 1 TB up to 14 TB
and with a workload capacity of 180 TB per year for the normal Skyhawk, while
the Skyhawk AI can withstand up to 550 TB workload per year.
Dahua Technology made an early start in AI applications and
has since made several achievements in the industry with the launch of their
IVSS series. Through this partnership, Seagate’s advanced technology
complements Dahua’s data storage challenges with their facial recognition,
ANPR, PFA and other advanced video analytics advanced features. In addition,
