Are there special instructions for setting up Face Detection and Person and Vehicle Detection?
Optimizing Person and Vehicle Detection Accuracy
- Angle the camera so that objects of interest appear in the bottom ⅔ of the camera image.
- Choose a location where objects of interest will be no further than 50ft (~15m) from the camera.
- Angle the camera between 30~60° down from the level position.
- Install the camera between 8-16ft (2.5-5m) off of the ground.
- Accuracy of person and vehicle detection will be influenced by multiple factors, such as the object’s distance from the camera, the size of the object, and the height and angle of the camera. Night vision will also impact the accuracy of detection.
Optimizing Face Detection Accuracy
- The camera should be installed about 10 feet above the ground so as to ensure that the full proportion of the face is detected on the screen.
- Angle the camera approximately 15° down from the level position.
- To distinguish facial features the distance from the camera to the face should be approximately 15 feet.
