Both processors can deliver continuous CTD concurrently with one of the four remaining video analytic functions, e.g. CTD plus IMD running simultaneously.
Face Detection: Detects faces from the camera’s video input. -Set whether or not to Enable Face Detection. -Select Sensitivity to set the sensitivity level. As the sensitivity grows, face detection becomes more close and detailed. -Select Direction to set directions for detection: up, left, and right. The system supports to detect faces with face inclination +/- 45°, face direction +/- 30° in vertical direction and +/- 60° in horizontal direction. - Set whether to use Detection result overlay.
Face Recognition: Recognize faces from the camera’s preloaded database of faces. -Set whether or not to Enable Face Recognition. -Select Confidence Level to set the confidence threshold. Threshold for the input face confidence when compared to the faces in the database. - Set whether to use Face Register. It supports run-time addition and deletion of registered faces in the database.
turning off the lights (if indoors with no major change in ambient illumination expected). CTD can tolerate the effects of automatic camera gain, camera shaking that causes mild image jitter (less than +/- 4 pixels in any direction), and dimly lit scenes. - Set whether or not to Enable Camera Tamper Detection - Select Sensitivity to set the sensitivity level. The higher the sensitivity, detects the minutest tampering attempts. - Select Reset Time.
Objects must be moving and visible within the boundary of a zone for at least 100 ms. Minimum and maximum dimensions supplied by the user serve as guidance to internal segmentation algorithms but do not strictly disqualify objects from consideration. Motion in any direction inside a zone will trigger an event. -Set whether or not to Enable Intelligent Motion Detection - Select Sensitivity to set the sensitivity level.
false detections, consider increasing the minimum dimensions. People or Vehicle Maximum Size: maximum expected width and height of a person in the scene. Width and height maximum dimensions should be larger than their corresponding minimum dimensions, and should not exceed more than half the frame size. - Select Zones Settings to specify the multiple activation zones. Up to four independent zones, where each zone is a userdefined polygon with a maximum of 16 nodes.
share exactly one common edge. An object crossing this edge must appear in each zone for at least 0.5 seconds to be detected6. To satisfy the 0.5 second requirement, the size and shape of each zone should be large enough to accommodate the size and velocity of all targeted objects. -Zone 1: User defined polygon with a maximum of 16 nodes. Each node defined by fixed-point coordinate pair lying within image boundaries. Must be defined before Zone 2. The first and last nodes should be identical.
Zone 2 to Zone 1: Event detected only if object moves from zone 2 to zone 1. Bi-directional: Event detected if object moves either from zone 1 to 2 or from zone 2 to 1. -Sensitivity: A high sensitivity setting makes it less likely that an event is missed, but can make the algorithm susceptible to false alarms. -Object Sizes: People Minimum Size – minimum expected width and height of a person in the scene. Width and height values must be greater than 16 pixels.
height of a vehicle in the scene. Object width must be less than 80 pixels and height must be less than 48 pixels. Object Counting: Count the number of objects moving through the camera’s field of view (from top-to-bottom or from left-to-right). An Object Counting event occurs when an object is detected moving from one half of the image to the other half. This application provides an estimate of the number of objects that trigger the event. Each half of the image is designated as either zone 1 or zone 2.
- Directionality: Zone 1 to Zone 2: Event detected only if object moves from zone 1 to zone 2 Zone 2 to Zone 1: Event detected only if object moves from zone 2 to zone 1 Bi-directional: Event detected if object moves either from zone 1 to 2 or from zone 2 to 1 - Sensitivity: A high sensitivity setting makes it less likely that an event is missed, but can make the algorithm susceptible to false alarms. - Object Sizes: Expected width and height of an object in the scene.

AVI Audio Video Interleave, it is a Windows platform audio and video file type, a common format for small movies and videos. B BOOTP Bootstrap Protocol is an Internet protocol that can automatically configure a network device in a diskless workstation to give its own IP address. C Communication Communication has four components: sender, receiver, message, and medium. In networks, devices and application tasks and processes communicate messages to each other over media.
domain names are alphabetic, they're easier to remember. The Internet however, is really based on IP addresses every time you use a domain name the DNS will translate the name into the corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name www.network_camera.com might translate to 192.167.222.8. E Enterprise network Ethernet An enterprise network consists of collections of networks connected to each other over a geographically dispersed area.
G Gateway Group A gateway links computers that use different data formats together. Groups consist of several user machines that have similar characteristics such as being in the same department. H HEX Short for hexadecimal refers to the base-16 number system, which consists of 16 unique symbols: the numbers 0 to 9 and the letters A to F. For example, the decimal number 15 is represented as F in the hexadecimal numbering system.
IP address ISP LANs, most people will allow the DHCP function of a router or gateway to assign the IP addresses on internal networks. IP address is a 32-binary digit number that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the Internet. For example 80.80.80.69 is an IP address. When you “call” that number, using any connection methods, you get connected to the computer that “owns” that IP address.
MPEG4 MPEG4 is designed to enable transmission and reception of high-quality audio and video over the Internet and next-generation mobile telephones. N NAT Network NWay Protocol Network Address Translator generally applied by a router that makes many different IP addresses on an internal network appear to the Internet as a single address. For routing messages properly within your network, each device requires a unique IP address. But the addresses may not be valid outside your network.
PPPoE Protocol connections. Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. PPPoE is a specification for connecting the users on an Ethernet to the Internet through a common broadband medium, such as DSL or cable modem. All the users over the Ethernet share a common connection. Communication on the network is governed by sets of rules called protocols. Protocols provide the guidelines devices use to communicate with each other, and thus they have different functions.
RTSP and audio files in real time for Internet applications. RTSP (Real-time Streaming Protocol) is the standard used to transmit stored media to the client(s) at the same time, which provides client controls for random access to the content stream. S Server SIP SMTP SNMP Station Subnet mask It is a simple computer that provides resources, such as files or other information.
