Axis Communications announces the 8th generation of its
custom-designed system-on-chip (SoC) made for network video. The
ARTPEC-8 SoC was designed first and foremost to create new
opportunities for impressive analytics applications based on deep
learning on the edge. In addition, the new SoC accelerates the
array of remarkable capabilities and features first seen with the
implementation of ARTPEC-7. These include superior imaging,
enhanced security, and powerful compression. Furthermore, the fact
that ARTPEC-8 was designed in-house gives Axis a level of control
crucial to cybersecurity. Going forward, the new chip will be the
basis for the vast majority of Axis network video products. Some of
the first cameras to include this chip are the soon-to-be-launched
AXIS Q3536-LVE/38-LVE Dome Cameras and AXIS Q1656-LE Box
Camera.

“With ARTPEC-8, Axis is leading the way toward a new era of
exciting analytics based on deep learning on the edge,” says Johan
Paulsson, Chief Technology Officer. We want to deliver the easiest
access to actionable insights through the widest range of analytics
on the market. Our ultimate goal is to contribute to creating a
smarter, safer world by addressing more and more important use
cases. Plus, ARTPEC-8 is 100% optimized for high-quality network
video solutions. And, as always, we have complete control over
every single transistor.”
Deep-learning-based analytics on the edge
ARTPEC-8 supports powerful analytics applications based on deep
learning on the edge where cameras have the processing power to
analyze data within the camera itself. An example of
deep-learning-based analytics is highly granular real-time object
detection and classification that makes it possible to develop
analytics that can distinguish between different kinds of objects,
such as types of vehicles. This is the basis for AXIS Object
Analytics. It also opens the door to other deep-learning-based
analytics that deliver actionable insights for security, safety,
and operational purposes. Thanks to the open Axis platform, these
other analytics applications will include tailor-made applications
from Axis partners.
The advantages of analyzing data on the edge
Deep-learning-based analytics on the edge, powered by ARTPEC-8,
deliver additional significant benefits as well. Analyzing data on
the edge – on the camera – means no information is lost in
compression or transmission making results more reliable. It allows
for faster alerts, which in turn lets users act instantly to
protect people and property and make the right decisions about
their operations. It creates cost savings because less bandwidth
and storage and fewer servers are needed. Less bandwidth and
storage also significantly reduce the risk of loss of sensitive
data and fewer servers also improves scalability.
Increased analytics performance and the best imaging
ARTPEC-8 continues to facilitate Axis Lightfinder 2.0 and Axis
Forensic WDR for the best image processing under difficult light
conditions. These are part of the foundation for Axis Scene
Intelligence technology, which increases the performance of
analytics applications. The result is consistent analytics results
and fast, accurate forensic search capabilities with minimal false
alarms even under challenging surveillance conditions. Axis Scene
Intelligence puts market-leading expertise from decades of
experience with image processing to work.
Cybersecurity benefits
ARTPEC-8 builds on cybersecurity features introduced with
ARTPEC-7 including signed firmware and secure boot. ARTPEC-8
supports Edge Vault for secure storage of cryptographic keys and
certificates. Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for FIPS-compliant
secure storage will be available in certain cameras.
The first cameras to include the new ARTPEC-8 chip--the AXIS
Q3536-LVE/38-LVE Dome Cameras and the AXIS Q1656-LE Box
Camera--will be on display in the Axis Communications Booth #1341
at the Global Security Exchange (GSX) Conference, September 27 -
29, 2021, Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, Florida.
