UNV IP surveillance technologies explained

ColorHunter, Tri-Guard 2.0, LightHunter, OmniView & More

Uniview (UNV) continues to position itself as a leader in intelligent video surveillance, not only through its wide range of Easy, Prime, and Pro products, but also through the advanced technologies embedded within these ranges.

UNV is fully NDAA-compliant, meaning its products meet the US National Defense Authorization Act requirements that prohibit the use of certain high-risk components known to create cybersecurity vulnerabilities. In practical terms, NDAA-compliance ensures stronger device security, reduced exposure to backdoor risks, and adherence to strict global standards for data protection. For South African organisations, this aligns closely with POPIA principles by supporting safer data processing, minimising the risk of unauthorised access, and helping businesses maintain a more secure and compliant surveillance environment.

Building on our previous overview of the UNV ranges, this follow-up article focuses on the core imaging and security technologies that define UNV’s performance:

ColorHunter, Wise-ISP, Smart Dual Light, Warm Light, Tri-Guard 2.0, OmniView, MultiView, and LightHunter.

ColorHunter with Wise-ISP

ColorHunter is engineered to deliver full-colour imaging day and night, ensuring clearer evidence, better subject identification, and enhanced situational awareness.

When paired with Wise-ISP, the camera gains an intelligent image-processing layer capable of:

  • Enhancing detail in dark areas
  • Reducing image noise
  • Preserving true colour accuracy
  • Improving contrast and dynamic range

Together, these technologies allow UNV cameras to maintain bright, colourful, and highly detailed scenes even with very limited ambient lighting.

ColorHunter with Smart Dual Light

Smart Dual Light adds adaptive intelligence to a ColorHunter camera’s illumination system. Instead of keeping lights on or off continuously, the camera automatically switches between the following modes:

  • IR Mode: discreet, black-and-white night viewing
  • Warm Light Mode: colour imaging when motion is detected
  • Smart Mode: automatic switching based on activity

This approach improves energy efficiency, reduces light pollution, and ensures that colour imaging is only activated when needed for evidence capture.

ColorHunter with Warm Light

Warm Light is the traditional ColorHunter configuration where soft, warm-tone LEDs remain active to ensure constant colour visibility at night.

Warm-light illumination provides:

  • Natural, balanced night-time lighting
  • Consistent colour reproduction
  • Clearer identification of faces, vehicles, and clothing

This option is ideal for areas where permanent illumination is acceptable and contributes to improved safety and visibility.

Tri-Guard 2.0

Tri-Guard 2.0 is one of UNV’s most advanced security technologies, combining three critical capabilities into a single device:

  1. ColorHunter full-colour night imaging
  2. Active Deterrence: red/blue warning lights + audible alerts
  3. Smart Intrusion Prevention (SIP): AI-powered human and vehicle classification

The result is a camera that doesn’t just record, it can actively deter intruders while minimising false alarms. Tri-Guard 2.0 is especially suitable for perimeter security and high-risk environments where early intervention is essential.

OmniView

OmniView represents UNV’s multi-sensor panoramic imaging technology, designed for maximum area coverage with minimal blind spots.

Key features include:

  • 180° or 360° panoramic viewing
  • Multi-sensor splicing for a seamless composite image
  • Minimal distortion across extremely wide angles
  • High-resolution recording ideal for large spaces

OmniView reduces the need for multiple cameras and is perfect for wide-open environments like parking areas, sports fields, courtyards, and public spaces.

MultiView

MultiView is a versatile viewing technology that allows a single UNV camera to provide multiple simultaneous perspective views from one installation point.

Using digital cropping and smart stream management, MultiView enables:

  • Wide overview + detail views at the same time
  • Multiple angles captured from a single lens
  • Simplified network usage (one device, one IP)
  • Streamlined installation with reduced hardware needs

This makes MultiView ideal for complex indoor layouts, retail environments, and entrances where multiple viewpoints improve coverage.

LightHunter

LightHunter focuses on producing exceptionally bright, clean, low-noise images in very dark environments, even when there is little to no artificial lighting.

It achieves this through:

  • High-sensitivity sensors
  • Large-aperture optics
  • Advanced noise-suppression algorithms
  • Optimised low-lux performance

LightHunter cameras are perfect for locations where installing visible lighting isn’t feasible or desirable, offering impressive clarity without relying on LED illumination.

UNV’s commitment to NDAA compliance, cybersecurity, and advanced low-light imaging makes it one of the most reliable surveillance brands for modern enterprises and critical infrastructure. Whether designing a residential system or securing a large commercial estate, UNV’s technologies offer tailored solutions for nearly every environment.

For secure, compliant, and high-performance surveillance, UNV provides a feature-rich ecosystem covering low-light imaging, intelligent deterrence, and multi-sensor coverage. Explore the full range to build smarter, safer, and future-proof monitoring solutions.
