The reason this example works better is that the scene is not as complicated as a horizontal shot. This provides a stable and clear background to differentiate object detection (shown as a green box around the targets) from a static object. If the background is a complicated scene, like a horizontal camera shot outdoors, then the camera loses the efficiency of detecting a moving object. This results in the People Counting IVS rule (seen as a blue box) not reliably triggering.

The camera should be mounted at least 9 feet above the target if using a 3.6mm lens. Using a camera with a varifocal lens can help create a better scene if mounting options are limited. Adjusting the image settings: contrast, B&W, and gamma can aid in getting better detection, but will reduce image quality.

People Counting

Description

It is to make statistics of enter and leave people in the specific area of the image, and finally it comes out the statistics data, providing kinds of data reports such as day report, month report and year report. There are two ways to present: line chart and bar chart, providing data exporting function.

Note: People counting supports max half year data, it will operate auto overwrite according to hour when surpassing one year.

Prerequisites

  • Internet Explorer
  • IP Address of Device
  • IVS capable devices
  • Current Firmware
