How Hikvision’s Innovations in Greener LED Displays are Reducing Energy Use and Boosting Sustainability
Hikvision considers environmental impact carefully and is putting sustainability at the heart of its business operations and product development strategies. One example is its latest generation of LED Displays, which uses cutting-edge technology to reduce energy consumption by up to 50%*, extend the product lifecycle, and help reduce carbon emissions.
It is now a social responsibility for every organisation to minimise its carbon footprint and other negative environmental impacts. At Hikvision, this responsibility is central to its Environmental, Social and Governance strategy, and they are optimising the way they operate and develop new technologies and products to help everyone – from customers to partners – work together to make the most of their resources and minimise their impact on the environment.
Meanwhile
They continuously work to reduce their carbon footprint at different stages of product development and business operations – from materials and design choices to green manufacturing and low-carbon office park practices.
One significant way that Hikvision cares for the environment is by optimising the efficiency and sustainability of their products – from initial design, right through to manufacturing and delivery to installers and end customers. One example of this is their LED product range, which lowers energy consumption and overall carbon emissions by up to 50%*.
Innovating to Make LED Displays Greener
Hikvision has implemented a number of important technological innovations that make their LED displays more environmentally friendly.
Flip-Chip CoB Technology
Flip-Chip CoB (Chip on Board) removes the need to bond chip wires to the printed circuit board, allowing panels of LEDs to be adhered directly to the base. This approach removes bonding wire from the display’s light path and supports chip-level spacing of LEDs in the screen, maximising image luminosity and resolution. Even more importantly, though, removing wire bonds with Flip-Chip CoB increases the energy efficiency of Hikvision displays for greener operations. At the same time, the screen temperature is reduced by 5 to 10 degrees*, mitigating the risk of damage to LED beads and increasing the product lifespan.
Common Cathode Technology
This power-supply technology, which is used in our LED displays, enables a single system to supply the correct voltage to power red, green and blue LED light beads. Because red beads require lower voltage, this technology allows us to reduce energy consumption by up to 50%* compared to traditional power-supply systems. It also means that screens run cooler, maximising their durability and, therefore, their sustainability.
PixMaster Algorithm
PixMaster uses pixel-level analysis to recognise what kind of content is being displayed on a LED screen in real-time and to adjust the brightness, contrast and other key parameters accordingly. This improves the viewing experience, but – critically – it also reduces energy consumption and associated emissions.
Aluminium Cabinets
Aluminium Cabinets encase and protect Hikvision displays, protecting them against all the elements and using silicon grease and heat sinks to maximise heat dissipation. This enables the cabinet to operate without air conditioning below 60°C*, which can greatly reduce energy use and emissions of the whole LED system.
Conclusion
With an unwavering determination to increase the energy efficiency and sustainability of all their products, Hikvision will continue to innovate our LED displays to achieve even greener operations and even better performance.
