Motion Detection

The Intellinet network camera is able to monitor the video footage for

movements and trigger an alert if motion has been detected. This motion

detection does not utilize passive infrared, but instead it relies on a frame by

frame comparison of the video footage the camera captures.

You can define more than one motion detection area. The example above

shows that so-called hotspot has been created for the area of the entrance

door. When you set up an event for motion detection, you can select which

motion detection area you wish to monitor.

Threshold and sensitivity will need to be set up so that you don’t miss

important events and are not flooded by false alarms either. Finding the right

values will require some trial and error. There are no standard values that

simply “will work” as it depends very much on the actual location and light

levels. Generally speaking, increasing the sensitivity while lowering the

threshold will generate more false alarms but it ensures that you will not miss

an important event. Doing the opposite will of course have the opposite effect:

Fewer false alarms at an increased risk or missing an important event.

Tampering Detection

If the image of the camera is obstructed, e.g., because someone covers up the

lens or moves the image out of focus, the camera notices this and generates a

trigger alert. You can define how long you want the alert state to remain active

after the event has occurred.
