What is SMD?

Smart Motion Detection (SMD) uses an advanced algorithm to differentiate human and vehicular shapes within a scene and send alarms only when a person or vehicle is detected.

What are the benefits of SMD?

  • False Alarm Filter
  • Quick Target Search
  • Alarm Visualization
  • Real-time Alarm Push


SMD supported device

NOTE: SMD is not supported in SmartPSS

Recorder Model

XVR

SMD function performed by the recorder. You can install non-SMD CVI Camera with SMD-supported XVR model to get SMD function works.

NVR

Camera Model

Devices that Have SMD menu but not working

  • X58A5S
  • X72A2A
  • X72A3A


MD vs. SMD

Object Motion Detection Smart Motion Detection
Person Alarm Alarms when Human Detected Only*
Vehicle Alarm Alarms when Vehicle Detected Only*
Pets False Alarm No Alarm
Insects False Alarm No Alarm
Extreme Weather False Alarm No Alarm
Branches & Leaves False Alarm No Alarm
  • Object will be identified when appropriate object filter has been selected.

Quick Target Search

Extract and classify person and vehicles from massive video data, easy for end users to trace historical information and analyze. Person & Vehicle optional for playback to achieve quick target search, saving event retrieval time.

SMD Realtime Tracking

SMD Example1.png

  • SMD rule preview enables user to see the alarm more clearly
  • Real-time tracking box of SMD provides more accurate tracking effect

DMSS Alarm Push

SMD Example2.png

Newly added alarm target classification on DMSS, which shows it clearly that if there was person or vehicle trigger the MD alarm.
