Hikvision announces a new partnership with Can'nX to enhance KNX-based building automation
March 21, 2024 – Hikvision has announced a technology partnership with Can'nX, a leading enabler of automation solutions for commercial and residential buildings. The collaboration enables Hikvision technologies to be integrated with the KNX protocol – the global standard for home and building automation.
Thanks to the collaboration, integrators can enhance their building automation solutions by integrating Hikvision AI-enabled devices, such as cameras, into building systems – increasing the efficiency of building management and improving overall security.
Can'nX develops KNX IP gateways that make controlling the lighting, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and other building systems easier. One of these – the Link'nX gateway – allows IoT devices to connect to systems built upon KNX. The KNX IP gateways and IoT devices are configured and controlled with Can'nX's cloud platform, which enables Hikvision equipment and other assets to be controlled remotely.
With the new partnership, Hikvision's advanced AI cameras have become an essential component within the Can'nX KNX ecosystem. It means that system integrators can now take full advantage of machine perception and multi-device coordination to improve security and building automation.
According to Nicolas Colombi, the CEO of Can'nX, the new partnership with Hikvision is a significant step toward expanding the capabilities of the smart home/building ecosystem. "Our innovative solutions enable different systems to work together through the Link'nX gateway," he says. "The ability to connect the KNX ecosystem of home automation products to Hikvision devices now enables integrators to provide a broad range of new capabilities, opening up exciting possibilities for enhancing the experience of smart homes and commercial buildings."
"We're very optimistic about what the future holds for this collaboration," says Felix Fu, Global Technology Partner Alliance Manager at Hikvision. "By integrating Can'nX's KNX ecosystem with Hikvision's market-proven cameras for AI analytics, we're providing users with greater security and flexibility in building automation. Our joint solutions pave the way for more exciting and innovative AI-powered applications in the future."
The partnership with Can'nX provides a range of exciting possibilities. The joint solutions include:
This solution integrates Hikvision Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) technology with KNX, the global standard for home and building automation. Find out more here.
Similar to the ANPR solution, AI-driven facial recognition can be used as the trigger to multiple automated KNX events. Find out more here.
This is a sophisticated security solution which safeguards personal and confidential spaces while maintaining a high level of security awareness. Find out more here.
This integration solution enables buildings which conform to the KNX standard to incorporate a comprehensive suite of Hikvision's cutting-edge video security technologies. Find out more here.
A good example of what is now possible with this partnership would be a series of events that could be triggered by a house owner arriving home. When their car arrives at the garage, Hikvision's ANPR camera identifies the license plate and triggers a series of events pre-programmed by the Can'nX KNX system. The front door, for example, could be unlocked and lights could be turned on to a particular color and intensity. Meanwhile, the air conditioner could be instructed to create a certain temperature, and the system could even be programmed to turn the TV on in the living room. With the new Hikvision/Can'nX partnership, all of this can be configured to happen completely automatically as soon as the house owner arrives home.
