HANGZHOU, China<\/span>, Sept. 22, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Hikvision has developed\u00a0Guanlan Encoding<\/a>, a technology that uses AI to identify more and less information-rich areas in video images and encodes every frame accordingly.<\/p>\n

Poll finds surging demand for AI-based video encoding<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

To gauge the potential impact of the new technology,\u00a0asmag.com and Hikvision have teamed up for a survey of asmag<\/a> readers, entitled “AI encoding technology for video security<\/a>,” and asked them about their experience with the “storage challenge” and where they see potential in their projects for AI-based encoding.<\/p>\n

Storage pressure is real and growing<\/b><\/p>\n

When asked “How significant a challenge is video storage cost or capacity in your business or projects?” a large number of respondents\u201438.2%\u2014identified storage pressure as a “major challenge.” It was the second-most given answer among all respondents, trailing closely behind 43.2% who said storage is a “moderate” challenge. When asked “Has the storage challenge changed compared to 12 months ago?” the largest share of respondents\u2014once again 43.2%\u2014said it has “increased moderately.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Guanlan Encoding<\/a>\u00a0is built on the H.265 standard and integrates Hikvision’s Guanlan Large-Scale AI Model into continuous encoding workflows. Rather than compressing every part of a frame equally\u2014the approach traditional codecs take\u2014Guanlan Encoding identifies which parts of a scene matter most, such as people, vehicles and other moving objects, and allocates more detail to them. Static or low-motion background footage, by contrast, is compressed far more aggressively.<\/p>\n

According to\u00a0Hikvision, this combination of different compression rates in the same frame helps reduce storage needs by 30% to 50% on average without sacrificing details that matter for investigations and monitoring.<\/p>\n

Guanlan is already gaining ground<\/b><\/p>\n

Even though it was introduced so recently, over half of survey respondents expressed familiarity with Guanlan Encoding: 43.3% said they are “familiar with it” despite not yet having hands-on experience, while 8.3% said they are already using the technology.<\/p>\n

Overall, the survey showed the severity of the storage challenge, but also that\u00a0Hikvision is well positioned to offer a significant fix to the pain point. Guanlan Encoding plays a key role as it uses AI not to produce more data, but to reduce the burden of more data on storage infrastructure.<\/p>\n
