Emergency vehicle detection🔗
The Emergency vehicle detection module allows recognizing fire, ambulance, and police vehicles in the real-time mode. The recognition is available for predefined areas of the frame. To avoid false positives, a minimum time can be set for special vehicles to be in the area. Recognition events can be used in automation scenarios. For example, to automatically open the barrier.
Warning
This module will only work on the cameras on which it has been enabled by the administrator of video surveillance system.
