7.4 Intelligent Video Analysis

Intelligent Video Analysis is the vital function of NVR. This chapter will give you thorough and clear instructions in terms of the intelligent performance, operation process and parameter configuration.

7.4.1 Brief Introduction

Smart features of NVR include:

1) Behaviour analysis: target counting, object left/lost, intrusion detection, tripwire detection, scene changes.
2) Some of our NVRs are also equipped with features such as face detection, sound detection, fire detection, VQD, etc.

Note: Behaviour analysis supports both front-end and local detection modes, subject to the actual capacity of the product; while scene changing supports local detection mode only.

7.4.2 Enable Smart Analysis

Some NVR models disable local smart detection by default. To enable smart analysis, access the device parameters interface and set the preview capability to the mode with the smart analysis feature, as shown in Figure 7.22.

Figure 7.22 Model

Note: Currently the NVR's front-end smart function only supports ZKTECO protocol, so only when ZKTECO protocol accesses IPC can the IPC detection be turned on.

7.4.3 Function Configuration

Detect Mode

As shown in Figure 7.21, there are "IPC detection" and "local detection" modes; the former is the default setting. The IPC detection mode requires the IPC to support smart detection. If IPC front-end detection is not supported, the NVR Local Detection mode is then selected.

Figure 7.23 Detection Mode

Behaviour Analysis

Behaviour analysis includes the following functions: target counting, object left/lost, area detection, line crossing detection.

The target triggering rule is based on the centre of the target's lower edge (except height limit detection), which is generally the position of the human foot. So, when setting the detection line or detection area, the line/ area should not be suspended in the air.

The minimum height of the target should not be less than 1/32

of the image height; the minimum width should not be less than 1/64 of the image width; the maximum width of the proposed object should not exceed 1/4 of the image width; the maximum height should not exceed 1/2 of the image height.

Set the detection line or the detection area, but not too close to the target location. It also requires that the scope of view of the camera cannot be too small and the target cannot be too large.

Precautions:

1) Camera installation: install the device vertically to maintain static, avoid occlusion of vision, and make height appropriate (higher than two meters).
2) Scene selection: ensure adequate lighting, reduce the complexity of the site, try to avoid areas that may affect accuracy of detection, such as detection areas where there are leaves vibration, severe shadows, birds, insects and more; also, try to avoid reflective objects and scenes with glass, floor tiles, lakes and so on;
3) Alert area requirements: the warning area for intelligent analysis requires more than 1/8 of the area of the video

screen; if it is a cordon, the distance between the lines should exceed the image width or 1/4 of the height.

- Target counting

The purpose of this page is to configure relevant parameters so that the target count alarm occurs when a moving object whose area or volume is larger than a pre-defined value strides across the set detection line to obtain the number set by the detection rules, as shown in Figure 7.21. The following describes the parameters of the pages on the set method.

The purpose of this page is to configure relevant parameters so that the target count alarm occurs when a moving object whose area or volume is larger than a pre-defined value strides across the set detection line to obtain the number set by the detection rules, as shown in Figure 7.24.
