ACTi - KNR-121 - Deep Learning AI 16-Channel 1-Bay Mini Standalone NVR
Product Overview
This Deep Learning AI 16-channel 1-bay mini standalone NVR is designed for compact surveillance recording with built-in analytics support. It runs on Embedded Linux with an ARM-based embedded SoC and includes forensic search, smart search, object visual tracking, web client access, and local display outputs.
Key Configuration
16-channel mini standalone NVR with 16 free licenses; 1 storage bay for local recording; Embedded Linux operating system with ARM-based embedded SoC; audio support with HDMI x 1 and VGA x 1 outputs; built-in Core Analytics and Deep Learning AI.
Key Features
• Supports up to 16 video channels with 16 free licenses included
• Built-in Core Analytics and Deep Learning AI support intelligent video analysis
• Forensic Search and Smart Search help streamline video investigation workflows
• Object Visual Tracking supports easier review of movement across recorded scenes
• Web Client and multi-browser support enable browser-based system access
Technical Context
The NVR combines embedded standalone recording with built-in AI analytics to support more efficient monitoring and investigation. Forensic Search, Smart Search, and Object Visual Tracking help operators locate relevant events faster within recorded surveillance footage.
Installation Notes
The mini standalone form factor is suitable for compact surveillance installations with limited equipment space. HDMI and VGA outputs allow connection to a local monitor, while the Web Client provides browser-based access for system operation and review.
