The 11000 HD fixed and HD PTZ IP cameras can now offer both the popular Activity Control Framerate (ACF) function that is common to all the company’s IP cameras, as well as motion detection analytics.
ACF controls the framerate of the camera video stream based on the amount of motion in the scene. When there’s no activity, video is streamed over the network at minimum framerate: the instant motion is detected, video is automatically transmitted at the maximum configured framerate.
This significantly reduces the bandwidth and NVR storage requirement for cameras monitoring generally static scenes or during quiet periods (such as at night).
The more sophisticated motion detection analytic function again detects motion in the scene, but can also be configured with direction, persistence and re-arm parameters.
Dramatically enhanced analytics performance
Compared to IndigoVision’s standard definition IP cameras, the new HD models offer dramatically increased analytics performance enabling faster and more sensitive ACF and motion detection.
When the required motion is detected an alarm is raised in Control Center, IndigoVision’s Security Management Software, alerting operators to an intrusion or potential incident.
This can then trigger any number of events, such as displaying the camera stream on a spot monitor, highlighting the camera location on an interactive site map or sending an e-mail to alert staff.
Running real-time analytics at the network edge increases incident response and allows operators to use what is known as a ‘black’ or ‘dark’ screen monitoring mode where video is only displayed on alarm.
Both ACF and motion detection analytics are set up in-camera using an intuitive browser-based configuration tool.
‘Region of interest’ editor for masking
Both functions use a ‘region of interest’ editor to mask out areas of the scene that will be ignored by the motion detection. This is particularly useful in locations such as car parks, where areas of trees and bushes that will always show some movement can be masked.
As with all IndigoVision’s IP cameras, the 11000 HD Series model guarantees full frame rate (25/30 fps) video under all conditions. This is achieved through the unique use of pure digital signalling from sensor to network and advanced H.264 compression technology.
The cameras deliver “excellent HD quality video” at one of the lowest bitrates in the industry. This, coupled with the new motion analytics capability, makes the 11000 Series a truly unique range of cameras, helping to bring HD video to everyday surveillance applications.
