Hanwha Wisenet
Security Cameras
Built for Business
Hanwha Wisenet cameras deliver AI-powered detection, 4K clarity, and enterprise-grade cybersecurity in a single platform. Spotter Security designs, supplies, and installs Wisenet systems for commercial and industrial sites across Canada.
The Technology Inside Wisenet Cameras
Hanwha Vision is one of the world's largest manufacturers of professional security cameras, with more than 70 million devices deployed globally across retail, education, healthcare, government, and critical infrastructure. Their Wisenet product line is engineered for commercial-grade performance — not consumer retrofits.
At the core of every current Wisenet camera is the Wisenet 7 chipset — Hanwha's proprietary AI SoC that runs deep-learning object classification, behavior analysis, and attribute extraction directly on the camera. That means AI processing happens at the edge, without sending raw video to a cloud server for analysis. The result is faster alerts, lower bandwidth consumption, and better performance in low-light environments.
Spotter Security is an authorized Hanwha Vision dealer in Ontario and across Canada. We design Wisenet systems from the ground up — right-sizing resolution, field of view, IR range, and AI analytics for each specific site — and back every installation with ongoing monitoring and maintenance.
The Right Hanwha Camera
for Every Application
AI Fixed Cameras
Wisenet A & X Series Domes
4K AI dome and turret cameras powered by the Wisenet 7 chipset. On-board deep learning detects people, vehicles, faces, and objects at the edge — no separate analytics server required. Ideal for retail floors, lobbies, and open-plan commercial spaces.
PTZ Cameras
4K PTZ with 30× Optical Zoom
Available in up to 4K resolution with 30× optical zoom, 360° endless panning, and high-powered IR illumination for dark exterior areas. Auto-tracking follows subjects across wide areas — covering what three fixed cameras would miss. Perfect for parking lots, yards, and large facilities.
Multi-Sensor & Panoramic
Wide-Area PNM Series Cameras
Multi-sensor cameras up to 20MP with up to five independently adjustable lenses in a single housing. One camera replaces multiple fixed units across large open areas like warehouses, parking structures, and campus grounds — reducing installation costs and NVR channel count.
Outdoor Bullet Cameras
Wisenet Q & X Bullets
IK10 vandal-resistant, IP66 weatherproof bullet cameras with true IR illumination up to 100m. Built for Canadian winters — wide operating temperature range ensures reliable operation at -40°C. Long-range deterrence for perimeter walls, entry lanes, and loading docks.
Fisheye 360° Cameras
360° Single-Sensor Coverage
Ceiling-mount fisheye cameras with full 360° dewarped views and built-in AI analytics. A single camera provides complete situational awareness for mid-size retail floors, reception areas, and warehouse aisles — with digital PTZ and multiple virtual viewing windows inside the VMS.
Thermal & Bi-Spectrum
Thermal Perimeter Cameras
Dual-sensor bi-spectrum cameras combine thermal and optical imaging for reliable perimeter detection in complete darkness, heavy fog, or extreme weather. Ideal for critical infrastructure protection, industrial yards, and after-hours perimeter monitoring where optical IR cameras fall short.
Six Reasons Commercial Buyers
Choose Hanwha Security Cameras
Wisenet 7 AI Chipset
The latest Wisenet 7 SoC runs deep-learning inference directly on the camera — classifying people, vehicles, faces, and behaviors in real time without a server. Faster alerts, lower bandwidth, and smarter detections than software-based analytics bolted onto older hardware.
eXtreme WDR — 120dB
Hanwha's eXtreme WDR delivers 120dB dynamic range — the widest in its class. Cameras handle high-contrast scenes like sunlit doorways or headlight-lit parking lots without blowing out highlights or losing shadow detail. No more useless footage at building entrances.
Cybersecurity & NDAA Compliance
Hanwha Vision cameras are fully NDAA Section 889 compliant and free from components restricted by US federal procurement rules. On the firmware side, they feature HTTPS enforcement, 802.1X authentication, signed firmware updates, and FIPS 140-2 validated encryption — critical for healthcare, government, and financial facilities.
AI Analytics — On-Camera
Wisenet A and X Series cameras include built-in AI analytics: object detection (person / vehicle / face), attribute extraction (color, clothing type, direction), BestShot face capture, sound classification, virtual line crossing, loitering detection, and crowd density estimation — all without a separate analytics server license.
H.265+ Smart Compression
Wisenet H.265+ encoding reduces video file size by up to 75% compared to H.264, without sacrificing image quality in critical zones. Lower storage and bandwidth costs across multi-camera deployments — especially meaningful for remote sites and cloud-streamed systems where bandwidth is expensive.
Open Platform Integration
Hanwha cameras integrate natively with Genetec Security Center, Milestone XProtect, and the Wisenet SSM VMS. They also connect with Eagle Eye Networks cloud VMS and major access control platforms — making Wisenet cameras a flexible choice for mixed-vendor enterprise environments.
