Enter Area
As important as it is for a surveillance system to record the details of an event, it is equally
important to detect suspicious activities and prevent the possibility of an unwanted event. ACTi
IVS Server 1 provides an
“Enter Area”
algorithm to keep track of people that are acting
suspiciously by loitering in designated area for too long. Note that the areas marked for
Enter
Area
algorithm will be highlighted in yellow.
To set up your
“Enter Area”
algorithm, follow the steps below:
1.
On the
Smart Search
tab of your
New Analysis Window
, select the
“Enter Area”
button .
2.
Under the
Enter Area Properties
that appears on your screen, adjust the property
settings to configure your
Enter Area
algorithm. Make sure to mark the box for
“Enable”
to allow for the
algorithm to work.
3.
Move your cursor over to the area showing video stream, at which point it will appear
as a drawing pen. To draw the rectangle that will mark your forbidden area, click and
drag your cursor to draw a yellow rectangle.
4.
If the area you want to mark does not fit to the form of a rectangle, you may also
choose to draw a polygon by selecting the icon on the upper right corner of your
Live View Display
area. To draw the lines for the sides of your polygon, click your
cursor to mark the endpoints of each line.
Double-click
on the final endpoint of the
final line to confirm and highlight the polygon in yellow, as shown in the illustration
below. Make sure your lines connect (a minimum of 3 lines) to form a closed shape.
