The domestic chip industry continues to advance, with new offerings spanning security, AI, AIoT, and ultra‑HD decoding. Major launches include HiSilicon’s Hi3516CV610, Rockchip’s RK182X series, Ingenic’s T33, SigmaStar’s SSU9383CM, and Goke Microelectronics’ GK6320 series—each addressing specific application demands and showcasing growing domestic capabilities.
HiSilicon Hi3516CV610 – 6M/4K20 Camera Chip
The Hi3516CV610 is an IPC SoC tailored for mainstream security cameras. HiSilicon leads in open operating systems, public‑security video codecs, network security, and privacy protection. Designed for both indoor and outdoor scenarios, it supports bullet, dome, hemispheric, turret, dual‑lens, and multi‑lens camera designs, delivering highly competitive security solutions.
Rockchip RK182X Series – 3D‑Architecture Co‑processor
Rockchip’s RK182X series, its first 3D‑architecture co‑processor, pushes hardware from “passive execution” to “active service,” providing core sensing and decision‑making capabilities. With strong performance on visual‑language and large‑language models, it forms the dual‑brain core of next‑generation “ambient intelligence,” enabling a fundamental shift from “feature‑based” to “agent‑based” devices. Benchmarks show the RK182X runs the Qwen2.5‑3B model at over 100 tokens/second, three times faster than competitive products, and leads in supporting Qwen3‑VL‑2B/4B multimodal models with speeds up to 136.32 TPS (Qwen3‑VL‑2B) and near‑100 tokens/second (Qwen3‑VL‑4B).
The chip’s breakthrough lies in moving from “seeing” to “understanding,” enabling complex‑model cognition. Leveraging powerful edge‑AI compute, it allows new‑gen AI devices to interpret events and behaviors, supporting simultaneous four‑channel video analysis, real‑time alerts with 0.5‑second anomaly response, and detailed scene/behavior descriptions per channel, suitable for security, robotics, automotive, and other edge applications.
Ingenic T33 – Entry‑level H.265+ AI SoC
Ingenic’s T33 targets the entry‑level H.265+ AI SoC segment with a focus on “accessibility, stability, balance, and versatility,” breaking down barriers to high‑end AI vision applications. As part of Ingenic’s T‑series ecosystem, it extends the AOV (Always‑on Video) technology advantage, integrating AI compute and efficient encoding into an entry‑level chip. With a high cost‑performance ratio, it fits home security cameras, smart‑lock front‑ends, solar outdoor cameras, battery‑based IPCs, and other applications, promoting widespread AI vision adoption in consumer and industrial fields.
For imaging, the T33 supports 5MP real‑time frame output, scalable to 6MP resolution, and includes the upgraded Tiziano‑v4.1 ISP with 3A functions and third‑party 3A interfaces, plus pixel‑defect correction, black‑level calibration, purple‑fringe correction, and de‑haze capabilities. Low‑light performance is enhanced through spatial‑temporal multi‑stage noise reduction. On encoding, the enhanced Hera‑v1.6 encoder supports H.264/H.265/JPEG, stable 6MP@25fps encoding, and multiple bit‑rate control modes, with ROI and multi‑reference‑frame encoding to reduce motion blur.
SigmaStar SSU9383CM – Popular‑segment AIoT Chip
With rapid AIoT growth, balancing performance, power, and functionality is critical. Leading video‑surveillance chipmaker SigmaStar (SZ301536) addresses market needs with the SSU9383CM, a popular‑segment AIoT chip built around “balanced adaptability” for diverse AIoT applications, helping complete its high‑/mid‑/low‑end robot‑controller chip matrix. The chip features a Cortex‑A35 quad‑core processor for complex data processing and multi‑tasking while keeping full‑load power below 1.3W. Its in‑house 1 TOPS NPU supports int4/8/16 and mixed‑precision formats, accelerating edge‑light AI tasks like video analytics, image recognition, and audio processing, while supporting multiple sensor inputs. It is already adopted by several leading global brands for outdoor‑cleaning, service‑companion, and other robot types.
Goke Microelectronics GK6320 Series – 4K Ultra‑HD Decoder Chip
Goke’s GK6320 series is designed for 4K ultra‑HD decoding and recently debuted in the first consumer‑side OpenHarmony large‑screen product—the “Zhitianxia TV Learning Companion.” Available on JD.com and Taobao, the device runs OpenHarmony V5.1 and uses the GK6320 chip to deliver smooth performance, convenient casting, and AI‑assisted learning, redefining home‑learning solutions. The series integrates a high‑performance multi‑core CPU/GPU, supports 4K@60fps H.264/H.265 decoding and display, and offers high performance, high integration, and true 4K output. Collaborating with the OpenHarmony (Changsha) Spark Lab, it has fully completed commercial adaptation for OpenHarmony V5.1, providing stable underlying support for end products.
ICgoodFind : These five domestic chips cover multiple high‑growth segments, each with distinct technical strengths and application advantages. They reinforce supply in niche areas and demonstrate the diversified development capabilities of China’s chip industry, meeting diverse end‑device implementation needs.
