How to use AcuSeek
AI video search, as easy as typing or speaking. Describe what you need or use a preset shortcut, and AcuSeek finds it in seconds.
Combining AcuSeek with AcuSearch
AcuSeek identifies objects associated with a specific feature (e.g., white car) or another object (e.g., person walking a dog) by analyzing video footage and user-defined criteria such as time and location.
AcuSearch then pinpoints a specific object (e.g., the white sedan from the AcuSeek search result) across all scenes, providing a timeline of its appearances and related footage for further check.

FAQs
Time is critical in security situations. Traditional video review can take hours to find one incident – imagine having to manually scan through days of footage to locate a specific event. AcuSeek changes this completely by letting you find exactly what you're looking for in seconds, not hours.

Think of AcuSeek NVR as your smart video search assistant. You simply describe what you're looking for in plain words - like "person in red jacket" or "delivery truck" - and the system instantly finds those exact moments across all your cameras.
It's powered by advanced AI that understands both images and language, making video search as easy as using a search engine.
Hikvision AcuSeek uses a breakthrough technology called Large Multimodal Model (LMM). Here's how it works in simple terms:
1. Visual Understanding: The AI "sees" and understands every object and action in your videos
2. Language Processing: It connects your natural language descriptions with visual content
3. Smart Matching: When you search for "white van," it instantly knows exactly what you mean and finds all matching footage
The result? Human-like understanding with machine-level speed and precision.
It's incredibly simple - just type what you're looking for in everyday language:
Examples:
"Person wearing red clothes"
"White delivery van"
"Someone with a suitcase"
"Person walking a dog"
"Bicycle parked near entrance"
Hit search, and you'll get precise results in seconds. No technical knowledge required - if you can describe it, AcuSeek can find it.
AcuSeek can be used to search for objects associated with a specific feature (e.g., white car) or another object (e.g., person walking a dog).
Regarding specific products:
- I/VPro Series NVRs support searching for persons, vehicles, and objects associated with persons or vehicles.
- DeepinMind Pro NVRs and Fusion Server Ultra feature Open-Vocabulary Object Detection (OVD) to search for almost any object.
It depends on the type of AcuSeek NVR you deploy:
- To achieve a full-channel AcuSeek application, I/VPro Series NVRs need to be paired with AcuSense cameras or more advanced AI cameras from Hikvision.
- DeepinMind Pro NVRs and Fusion Server Ultra offer a higher level of compatibility; they can provide AcuSeek functions with non-AI IP cameras from Hikvision and other vendors.
Here's the simple fix: AcuSeek NVR comes with English as the default language in system settings. To search in Arabic or any other language, you just need to change the system configuration first.
Quick Setup Steps:
1. Access the NVR's local GUI or Web interface and change the language in system settings to Arabic.
2. That's it – now you can search using Arabic descriptions like "شخص يرتدي قميصاً أحمر" (person wearing red shirt)
Why System Settings Matter: The AI needs the system configuration language to match your search language so it can properly understand and process your descriptions.
Ready to search in your language? Simply update the system settings and start describing what you're looking for in the language you're most comfortable with.
