Motion detector🔗
Motion detector parameters can be set up on the Motion detector tab.
Below is the description of controls located on the tab.
Video stream for analysis: Determines which stream will be used for software motion detection on Eocortex server.
Set up the stream: Switches to the Connection tab, which allows selecting the stream to be recorded to the archive.
Motion detector: Enables motion detector support.
Detector type: Determines which motion detector will be used:
Eocortex: Software motion detector on Eocortex server.
On camera: Camera inbuilt motion detector.
Warning
To use the motion detector built into the camera, it is necessary that the motion detector is existing on the camera and the Eocortex supports it.
Warning
When using the motion detector built into the camera, the Eocortex video analytics becomes unavailable.
The Checking link opens the window of motion detector check. In this window, detected moving objects will be highlighted with a colored border.
The Set up zones and sizes link will open the window of setting up detection zones and minimum sizes of the objects to be detected.
Enable motion start/end events: Enables generation of the corresponding events, for example, for using them in scenarios.
Detection frequency: Determines the frequency of video stream analysis for detecting motion in the frame:
Optimal frequency: Video stream analysis and motion detection will be performed with the frequency set automatically in accordance with the following rules:
If at least one video analysis module is enabled on the camera, the analysis will be performed with the frequency of 10 fps;
If no video analysis module is enabled on the camera, the analysis will be performed with the frequency of 5 fps for MJPEG, and for H.264, H.265 and MPEG-4 the frequency will be chosen automatically within the range of 0.4 – 5 fps.
Only by key frames: Only the key frames will be analyzed for H.264, H.265 and MPEG-4 codecs.
Constant frequency: The analysis will be performed with the set frequency.
