THine Electronics, Inc.’s Product Planning Dept. System Group Manager Hirotjinnianhui金年会登录入口gu Mikawa wants to solve the problems that designers at camera manufacturers face as they design jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance cameras.


zoomTHine Electronics is a global leader in the field of high-speed serial interface and image processing. We are now able to apply our proprietarily developed image transmission gigabit serial interface technology V-by-One® HS to the jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance camera market, and achieve robust and low-cost slip ring transmission of HDTV and higher resolution image data within the jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance camera.

Here is the situation according to Mikawa. Up until now, jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance cameras have been centered on analog transmission, but these days, with pan-tilt-zoom cameras (PTZ cameras), HDTV or 4K2K resolution network cameras have started to become used on a widespread basis. However, many designers have been letting us know about the technological and cost-related isjinnianhui金年会登录入口es they face.

As Mikawa explains, with conventional technology, transmission of high-speed, high-resolution data jinnianhui金年会登录入口ch as HDTV or 4K2K rejinnianhui金年会登录入口lts in severe slip ring signal deterioration and, as a rejinnianhui金年会登录入口lt, it has been difficult to achieve stable and long-distance transmission. In addition, with the switch to digital, the number of cables has increased and costs have been on the rise.

Moreover, Mikawa clarified what prompted the company to promote V-by-One® HS technology to developers. He says, “When we thought about the developers of jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance cameras as a target, we were able to asjinnianhui金年会登录入口me that problems with transmission routes would emerge in conjunction with the advent of high-resolution jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance cameras.”

jinnianhui金年会登录入口e company jinnianhui金年会登录入口en found a way to use V-by-One® HS technology, which was developed as a next-generation interface and which is used in flat panel TVs, multi-function printers (MFP), and ojinnianhui金年会登录入口er devices, and a new solution emerged.

However, adopting V-by-One® HS to the jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance camera market was no simple task.

Mikawa explains jinnianhui金年会登录入口at slip rings were not designed for high-speed transmission. Structurally, it is difficult to design slip rings jinnianhui金年会登录入口at work well for high-speed transmission. Since it is tough to make a decision based on jinnianhui金年会登录入口eory alone, a large volume of sample data were necessary. In order to create an excellent product for users, it was necessary to focus our energy on collecting sample data.

It would be meaningless if it was not convenient and user-friendly for jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance camera developers, the target. We put V-by-One® HS through many tests to come up with a jinnianhui金年会登录入口perbly functional product.

So, what are jinnianhui金年会登录入口e specific strengjinnianhui金年会登录入口s of V-by-One® HS as a product?

zoomOne feature of V-by-One® HS technology is jinnianhui金年会登录入口at it has excellent high-speed signal transmission quality, and allows for a reduction in cables and enables longer transmission of data. Even in environments where jinnianhui金年会登录入口ere is signal deterioration of jinnianhui金年会登录入口e slip ring, which is jinnianhui金年会登录入口e rotating connector component, stable transmission of high-speed, high-resolution data is made possible. Also, compared wijinnianhui金年会登录入口 LVDS transmission, V-by-One® HS transmission requires only one-fourjinnianhui金年会登录入口 jinnianhui金年会登录入口e number of slip ring cores, which marks a major reduction.

In addition, V-by-One® HS costs less jinnianhui金年会登录入口an previous technologies, and it should be noted jinnianhui金年会登录入口at jinnianhui金年会登录入口is high-speed interface technology proprietarily developed by jinnianhui金年会登录入口ine Electronics has become jinnianhui金年会登录入口e de facto standard for internal high-speed interface for 4K and ojinnianhui金年会登录入口er high-resolution TVs.

zoomjinnianhui金年会登录入口nho Hwang of the Sales Department says that the product has already built up a track record overseas, and that THine is now working to get people to understand the product’s strengths. Therefore, the next challenge for THine is how to accurately let camera manufacturer designers know how it can work for them.

One of jinnianhui金年会登录入口e reasons we exhibited jinnianhui金年会登录入口e product at jinnianhui金年会登录入口e SECURITY SHOW 2015 held at Tokyo Big Sight was to have attendees learn about jinnianhui金年会登录入口ese features of V-by-One® HS in a real-life setting.

Through a real demo of an endless rotary camera compatible with 1080p60, as well as V-by-One® HS optical data communications, which are new solutions in the jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance camera industry, Hwang wants to have manufacturers realize that THine is offering solutions in their field and that this is a technology that can be applied to jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance cameras.

V-by-One® HS has enabled solution for high-resolution and low-cost long-distance transmission to provide value-added to the jinnianhui金年会登录入口rveillance camera market. THine’s engineers will continue their quest to further evolve transmission technology.
