HANGZHOU, China, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Global thermal imaging solutions leader, HIKMICRO, has launched two highly intelligent algorithmic functions, SuperScene™ and SuperScene+™, that are reshaping the safe, automated and efficient inspection experience across housing, electrical and industrial applications – enabling even beginners to achieve professional-level accuracy.
SuperSceneâ„¢ and SuperScene+â„¢ are AI-driven device innovations, which ensure that smart detection is built in as standard and specialized inspection tools become a more accessible, affordable and intelligent solution for everyday challenges.
Both SuperSceneâ„¢ and SuperScene+â„¢ follow hot on the heels of SuperDetectâ„¢, HIKMICRO's first proprietary algorithm that automatically identifies problematic water leaks by analysing sound frequency, intensity, and spatial characteristics. Traditional acoustic leak detectors require trained professionals to interpret audio feedback and distinguish between normal pipe noises and potential leaks, however SuperDetectâ„¢ (which is the beating heart of the cutting edge AD21P Acoustic Leak Detector) makes precision effortless and achievable for all.
"We are renowned for delivering high quality thermal imaging technology to the mass market in an accessible and cost-effective manner, but this is a transformational chapter, even by our standards," explains HIKMICRO Overseas General Manager, Stefan Li. "These ultra smart algorithms optimize detection like never before and bridge the gap between complexity and simplicity, turning advanced diagnostics into actionable insights for first time users and seasoned professionals alike."
Ideal for identifying air leaks, heat loss and moisture damage in homes, SuperSceneâ„¢ is available on HIKMICRO's handheld and pocket devices (Eco, Eco-V, B20S, B21LS, PocketE, Pocket2, running V 5.5.82) and is a unique deep learning algorithm designed to simplify the inspection process and make home inspections faster. It focuses on a vast collection of thermal images representing typical issues such as insufficient insulation and water leakage. This enables the software to quickly and accurately identify potential insulation deficiencies and suspicious water leaks during Infrared (IR) inspections, which immediately makes it the essential smart scene recognition assistant for professionals and newcomers to thermal imaging equipment. Currently available in BETA, continual improvement and updates by HIKMICRO technical experts will bring even more accuracy and efficiency to SuperSceneâ„¢ in the future.
For experienced, professional users, HIKMICRO's 256x192 IR resolution handheld and pocket series cameras (B20S, B21LS, Pocket2, running V 5.5.82) also offer a new Pro Scene function, whereby an intuitive colour algorithm works with additional tools like hygrometers to analyze and alarm thermal images based on temperature and humidity data. During IR home inspections, this helps quickly pinpoint potential insulation defects (marked with a blue alarm) and suspicious moisture issues (marked with a green alarm) – to tangibly boost efficiency, accuracy and clarity of image. What's more, a scene preset quick switch enables easy customization for different scenarios.
SuperScene+â„¢ meanwhile brings automated risk detection for electrical panel inspection and PCB safety, simplifying workflows via built-in algorithms that identify temperature measurement targets in specific scenarios and determine if anomalies exist. This reduces the complexity of technicians' operations to improve inspection safety and result reliability, while also reducing downtime risks and optimizing equipment lifecycle management efficiency.
In electrical panel inspection, image recognition and Delta T (ΔT) algorithms are combined to accurately locate overloaded/degraded fuses through absolute temperature alarms and relative difference warnings. Micro-temperature sensing can also detect thermal differences as low as 0.5°C, flagging potential hazards before they escalate.
For PCB inspection, pre-configured templates plus AI calibration can batch screen high-density boards to identify short circuits, cold joints and overloads. What's more, by automating zone analysis and leveraging thermal conduction models, the calibration time of new PCBs is reduced from more than 30 minutes to less than 5 minutes.
Integrated into HIKMICRO's M and SP Series thermal cameras (M31, M60, SP40, SP40H, SP60, SP60H, running firmware V5.5.96), SuperScene+â„¢ enables streamlined two-step panel inspections and one-click PCB assessments. With colour coded alerts and instant diagnostics, it brings precision and consistency to tasks that once demanded extensive time and expertise.
These latest innovations represent a giant leap forward in making thermal imaging more intuitive, intelligent and inclusive. Whether you're inspecting a home, tracking down a water leak or safeguarding an industrial system, HIKMICRO's AI-driven tools make every inspection smarter, every decision faster and every outcome more reliable.

Detect Faster, Inspect Smarter: HIKMICRO's exclusive 'SuperScene' AI Algorithm Redefines Thermal Imaging
Detect Faster, Inspect Smarter: HIKMICRO's exclusive 'SuperScene' AI Algorithm Redefines Thermal Imaging
ANSHUN, China, May 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On May 21, at the Guizhou Anshun Tourism Development Conference, Mafengwo Travel Group officially launched three flagship "New Mountain Play" benchmark projects — Huangheying Water Cave, Lotus Ancient Cave, and Luoyang Glasswater Gorge — while jointly releasing the 2026 Anshun Mountain Outdoor New Play Playbook with the Anshun Municipal Bureau of Culture, Sports, Radio, TV and Tourism. By redefining mountain outdoor travel experiences through "new play," the initiative injects fresh momentum into Anshun's positioning as an international mountain tourism destination.
"Personalized travel is rising rapidly. Tourism is transitioning from a 'sightseeing economy' to an 'experience economy.' More than just 'having been there,' travelers today seek emotional value from scenic spots and related projects," said Chen Gang, Founder and CEO of Mafengwo, in a speech titled *Co-creating the Super Play Era of Mountain Tourism*. He noted that leveraging benchmark new-play projects such as Huangheying Water Cave, Lotus Ancient Cave, and Luoyang Glasswater Gorge, Mafengwo will work with Anshun to integrate "new play, new formats, new marketing, and new consumption" into a holistic innovation ecosystem for destination-wide play. Together, they aim to revitalize natural resources, energize industrial momentum, link rural revitalization, and jointly build Anshun into a national hub for new mountain play.
At a time when travelers are increasingly weary of "man-made check-in spots" and homogenized internet-famous projects, the newly launched projects abandon the old path of large-scale construction. Instead, they return to the wild itself, adopting a "light development, heavy experience" approach to create mountain plays that are "wild on the outside, refined on the inside." Huangheying Water Cave focuses on "natural wonders + interactive adventure," using its original "water-cave" karst features to create a genuine sense of "underground exploration." Lotus Ancient Cave, based on a massive natural cave, integrates "light ultimate" activities such as via ferrata, rappelling, and cave drop towers, allowing ordinary visitors to feel adrenaline-pumping "heart-racing moments" in a natural setting. Luoyang Glasswater Gorge follows the original river course, using natural elevation differences to design trails for hiking, canyoning, and waterfall rappelling, with minimal artificial construction, emphasizing the pristine "glass water" and an eco-harmonious, back-to-nature mountain experience.
At the "2026 Anshun Mountain Tourism New Play" sharing session, Mafengwo Travel Group and the Anshun Municipal Bureau of Culture, Sports, Radio, TV and Tourism jointly released the *2026 Anshun Mountain Outdoor New Play Playbook*. Ten selected plays in non-traditional mountain settings were featured, including "Night Tour of Dupo Tang — Immersive Journey into the World of Journey to the West," "Watch Intangible Cultural Heritage 'Spider-Man' Climb Cliffs for Bird's Nests," and "370-Meter Free Fall at Balinghe Bridge." These showcase how Anshun creatively uses its karst landscapes as a natural "amusement park" for mountain experiences.
He Weihong, Vice Mayor of Anshun, stated in his address: "In Anshun, the 'City of 21°C,' mountains are no longer just scenery to be viewed. They are living fields to be climbed, immersed in, jumped over, and breathed in. Anshun will take this conference as an opportunity to accelerate the internationalization of its mountain tourism and build a first-class mountain outdoor sports destination." During the event, Anshun Tourism Group also promoted its mountain outdoor travel routes.
By early 2026, the number of outdoor sports participants in China had exceeded 400 million, with participation in mountain hiking, trail running, rock climbing, and canyoning rising year by year. Driven by the dual trends of "nationwide fitness" and "pan-outdoor" activities, mountain play is moving from niche circles to the general public. Unlike the high barriers of traditional outdoor activities, Anshun's new plays target the blue ocean market of "light ultimate + strong experience + high shareability." Whether it's a "bridge bungee jump," checking out the natural wonder "Eye of the Great Sage," or experiencing a "Journey to the West fantasy" at night by Dupo Tang Waterfall — these activities are novel, beginner-friendly, and serve as natural content and social currency.
Anshun's mountain play innovation has also attracted international attention. Anouar, Chief Representative of the Tunisian National Tourism Office in China, noted in his speech that Anshun's innovation in integrating mountain tourism and sports is worth learning from for many international peers. He noted that Tunisia has diverse mountain resources across the country, with history embedded in the mountains and culture in the scenery — this is the unique charm of Tunisia's mountains. He looks forward to China-Tunisia cooperation to explore more mountain tourism opportunities and co-create new partnership models.
An international dialogue session brought together representatives from the Norwegian National Tourist Board, Visit Flanders (Belgium), and the Saudi Tourism Authority to discuss mountain outdoor tourism upgrade from a global perspective. The guests agreed that they were delighted to see that Anshun is not simply replicating a "Switzerland of the East" but is creating an entirely new "universal language of mountain tourism." The internationalization of mountain tourism is not about imitation but about excavating the unique narratives of local landscapes — with its green mountains and clear waters as the canvas and play innovation as the brush, Anshun is painting a vibrant new picture for the world.
A domestic dialogue session brought together frontier explorers, practitioners, and experts in mountain sports tourism to discuss the future development of mountain sports tourism from the perspectives of communities, products, and operations. Qin Chuan, Founder of Wanan Youth Travel, noted that with technological advancements and equipment iteration, more and more "outdoor novices" without professional training can enjoy the pleasures of the wild. Currently, Wanan Youth Travel is selecting and developing "super single products" and continuously improving service quality to deliver ultimate outdoor experiences to visitors.
After the conference, industry guests conducted on-site inspections of new play projects, including Lotus Ancient Cave, Dupo Tang Night Tour, Anshun Ancient Town, and Getu River. Wang Yu, Chief Representative of the Norwegian National Tourist Board in Greater China, remarked: "Anshun and Norway share many similarities. Anshun's new mountain plays emphasize 'light development, heavy experience.' Take Lotus Ancient Cave — it doesn't feel like a 'designed' scenic spot, but rather an extension of Anshun's natural mountain charm itself, an experiential field you can fully immerse yourself in. The scale of this 'light ultimate' experience is just right — thrilling enough, yet truly authentic."
