Expert Settings¶
Max AI Resolution¶
The Max AI Resolution setting allows you to define the maximum resolution that the AI processes. By default, this value is determined by the profile specified in the Global Settings, but it can be adjusted to meet specific requirements.
- If a resolution higher than the camera's native resolution is set, the plugin will automatically default to the camera's maximum supported resolution.
- Increasing the resolution can improve the detection of smaller targets.
Important
Only increase the resolution if absolutely necessary, as higher resolutions may significantly impact system performance
AI Tracking Speed¶
The AI Tracking speed feature enables users to adjust the frame rate at which the AI processes data.
Modifying this from the default setting may impact server performance and reduce the number of AI streams that can run simultaneously on the same device.
Default: 5 FPS - Optimized for most of the security surveillance use cases.
Fast: 10 FPS - Optimized for tracking faster moving targets (e.g. cyclists).
Very Fast: 15 FPS - Optimized for capturing targets that move very fast (e.g. electric scooters).
Choose the appropriate speed based on the tracking requirements and the server’s capacity to handle the additional load.
Detection Sensitivity¶
Increasing detection sensitivity improves the ability to detect challenging targets (e.g., smaller, occluded, or affected by lens noise) but may lead to more False Positives. Change "Detection Sensitivity" settings to "High" if the system misses events involving small objects or in busy scenes.
Movement Sensitivity¶
The Movement Sensitivity setting determines how the system detects motion within the camera's view. This setting can be adjusted to account for environmental factors such as rain, snow, camera noise, or light reflections, which might trigger false motion detections.
Low Sensitivity:
- Reduces false motion detections caused by environmental conditions.
- Suitable for minimizing noise in challenging environments.
High Sensitivity:
- Improves detection of fast-moving objects or objects that are visible for only a short duration.
- May increase False Positives under certain environmental conditions.
