How to Setup a Smart Plan for AI Cameras
A smart plan acts as the “master switch” for all AI features available in your camera. These features include, IVS, People Counting, Face Detection and Heat map. A Smart Plan must be saved first to use any AI features in your camera. Both IVS and Heat Map settings can be activated simultaneously, however, People Counting and Face Detection act separately in the system.
For more information on how to set a smart plan for your camera please refer to the information provided below.
Step 1: Log into the web user interface (web UI) for your camera. For more information on how to access the web UI, click here.
Step 2: Click on Setup.
Step 3: Click on Event, then, in the Event tab, click on Smart Plan.
Step 4: Click on which Smart Plan you would like to activate.
Note: A Smart Plan must be saved first to use any AI features in your camera. Both IVS and Heat Map settings can be activated simultaneously, however, People Counting will only work if IVS and Heat Map as disabled.
Below is a description of the features listed in the Smart Plan menu:
IVS: IVS stands for intelligent video system analytics and is the basis for all the AI rules associated with your camera.
People Counting: People Counting allows the camera to automatically monitor how many people enter and exit a certain area. This is useful for constant and consistent monitoring of flow rate in a certain area.
Face Detection: This feature is primarily used in conjunction with an AI NVR; however, face detection events can be captured by the camera and snapshots of the event can be emailed to an established email address.
Heat Map: Heat Map is used to determine the overall crowd flow (density) over a certain amount of time in a specific area. The feature provides a color-coded layout of the density with red being the highest level to blue which is the lowest level.
