Last updated 2 months ago

Management of your devices

To call up the configuration page of the devices, simply click on the respective device in the “Devices” list view. You can use this to manage all cameras that are processed on this device.

We recommend a logical naming scheme for the devices at this point.

Camera settings

Click on one of the cameras displayed to open the settings for the respective camera. As soon as you have configured the camera connection, you will see a preview of the camera image.

Data transmission

Your devices send events to an MQTT broker when a trigger is triggered. The standard configuration sends data to the data center.

  • Use the ssl:// prefix for the broker address to use transport encryption.

Models & Event-Triggers

In the configuration, you can select the model suitable for your use case and configure event triggers. Please consult the corresponding section in the solution areas.

Models

Below you will find a brief description of each model. Different models are recommended depending on the solution area.

  • Traffic & Parking (standard): Recognition of 12+1 object classes in the context of traffic and parking.

  • Traffic & Parking (Accuracy+): Recognition of 12+1 object classes in the context of traffic and parking. Optimized for higher accuracy at a processing speed of about half (measured in FPS) compared to “Traffic & Parking (Standard)”

See class definition for a detailed description of the classes.

The entire body of a person is recognized.

Note: When recognizing and tacking people, we do not perform facial recognition at any time. No sensitive personal information is processed.

The head of a person is detected. This is advantageous if the entire body is not visible and the distance to the objects is less than 5 meters.

Note: When recognizing and tacking people, we do not perform facial recognition at any time. No sensitive personal information is processed.

Event triggers

Event triggers trigger an event when a defined condition is met.

Counting lines (CL) trigger a count as soon as the center of an object crosses the line. When configuring a CL, it is important that the camera perspective is taken into account.

The CL also logs the direction in which the object has crossed the line in the In and Out direction. You can swap the In and Out direction at any time. In addition, a separate name can be assigned for the two directions.

By default, a CL only counts each object once. If every crossing is to be counted, there is an option to activate events for repeated CL crossings. With the restriction that counts are only taken into account if there are five seconds in between.

In addition to the repeated CL crossings, ANPR and Speed Estimation are also available as triggers or settings.

Speed Estimation_ can be activated as a special trigger setting for a CL in the left sidebar. This adds another line that you can use to specify the distance in your scenario. For the best results, we recommend a straight line without curves/slopes.

Regions of Interest** count objects in a specific area.** In addition, the class (Class) and dwell time (Dwell Time) are determined and specified.

Depending on the scenario, we can distinguish between three types of RoI. We offer the templates described below for these three types:

Single Space Parking
Multi Space Parking

These zones are used for origin-destination analyses. Counts are generated when an object moves through OD1 and then OD2. At least two areas must be configured for an OD.

The first zone that the object passes through is called the origin zone (Origin). The last zone that the object passes is therefore referred to as the destination zone (Destination).

Custom-MQTT allows to send events to an MQTT broker provided by you, the definition of the event format can be found .

Message compression can save up to 50% bandwidth used to send events to the MQTT broker. Please note that the broker and application must support decompression of .
