For Smart Clients to be able to work with the analytics solution,
each Smart Client must have the Alert Plugin for Smart
Client installed. This plugin enables the Smart Client to display
analytics data received through the surveillance system’s
XProtect Transact add-on component.
Smart Client users download and install the plugin from the
surveillance system server. The Smart Client should be
installed first, then the plugin. For more information about the
Analytics Alert Plugin, see the XProtect Analytics User’s Manual
on the XProtect Analytics software DVD and also available from
www.milestonesys.com.
Video Content Analysis Tool
To use XProtect Analytics Generic VA, a third-party video
content analysis tool is required for supplying data for XProtect
Analytics. Which video content analysis tool to use is entirely
up to you, as long as the data supplied by the tool adheres to
the formatting rules set out in the XProtect Analytics Generic
VA Interface Developers Manual, available on the XProtect
Analytics software CD as well as from www.milestonesys.com.
Third-party video content analysis tools are developed by
independent partners delivering solutions based on the
Milestone open platform. These solutions can impact
performance on the Milestone surveillance system.
