Ingenic AOV Solution Selection Guide
2025.06.06



Background: Technology Innovation Drives Explosive Growth in the AOV Market

With the deep integration of AOV (Always-On Video) technology and 4G network technology, AOV cameras, leveraging their unique advantage of "full coverage in scenarios without power or internet," are becoming a core growth point in the fields of security and AIOT.


As an industry technology leader, AOV solutions based on Ingenic's T-series platform have achieved large-scale commercial use and continue to drive horizontal diversification, covering the full range of scenarios from entry-level to high-end 4K.


Core Competitiveness of AOV: Balancing Full-Time Recording and Power Consumption

In harsh environments without power or internet, the core challenge for AOV products lies in achieving a perfect balance between full-time recording and ultra-low power consumption:

‌Full-Time Video‌: 7×24-hour uninterrupted recording to ensure no critical events are missed.

‌Full-Time Event Detection‌: Real-time detection of people and vehicles using intelligent algorithms for precise triggering of alerts.

‌Power Consumption Optimization‌: Through chip-level technological breakthroughs, data integrity is ensured while standby power consumption is reduced to milliwatt levels, extending device battery life.


Ingenic, with its self-controlled full-stack self-developed technologies including CPU, ISP, VPU, and NPU, and rich experience in collaborating with multiple leading brands in the battery-powered IPC field, is capable of deeply optimizing every key aspect of AOV technology. Through chip-level software-hardware collaborative design and efficient cross-module integration, Ingenic ensures breakthroughs in core indicators such as low power consumption, high computing power, and long battery life for AOV products, providing users with a "fully available, extremely power-saving" terminal experience.


Ingenic AOV Solution's Comprehensive Layout, Defining a New Industry Benchmark


First-Generation T41ZM/ZG

It was the first to realize battery-powered IPC products with "full-time recording" based on the Atlas platform, helping multiple industry and consumer partner clients with implementation. Additionally, the T41ZM/ZG series boasts the industry's lowest standby power consumption of below 1mW.


Through the large-scale implementation of the T41ZM/ZG series solution, Ingenic has accumulated in-depth engineering experience in AOV IPC products, laying a practical foundation for the advanced development of the T32/T33 series. It has successfully assisted leading clients such as Jiegao and Miray in achieving innovative breakthroughs in the AOV field, achieving million-level shipments of AOV products within a year.


Second-Generation T32V Series

Compared to the T41 AOV solution, the T32V series enhances multi-camera capabilities and reduces memory usage. By optimizing core mechanisms, it achieves lower power consumption than the previous-generation T41 AOV solution while significantly optimizing costs. It also introduces three memory capacities: 512Mb, 1Gb, and 2Gb, covering multiple tiers of AOV products.

Currently, AOV products based on the T32V series are being gradually implemented and their effects and experiences are continuously being optimized.


T33V Series (Upcoming)

Further optimized power consumption and comprehensively enhanced cost-effectiveness.

Pin2Pin and SDK compatible with the T32V series, complementing the T32 to build a comprehensive product layout for low, medium, and high tiers.
