What’s New in Axxon Next 4.4.0
- Real-time facial recognition has been implemented - automatic programmable real-time responses to identification of a face from a predefined/external list
- A built-in temperature detection tool is integrated for a number of thermal cameras (see the Drivers Pack documentation). It captures a person’s face in a video image and detects its temperature
It is now possible to visually adjust the video wall - now the monitor images in Axxon Next can be compared with their physical location
When configuring the access rights, it is now possible to provide the users of any role with the ability to change only the hardware access rights on the Users tab
- Neural tracker has been implemented
- Counting objects in a given zone using a neural network has been implemented
- Water level detection has been implemented
- Pose detection tools have been implemented: man down detection, sitting person detection, hands up detection, active shooter detection
- It is now possible – using Macros – to replicate the archive from the camera’s embedded storage in case if connection with the camera is lost
- The Web Client has been improved:
- Search in archives of multiple cameras has been supported
- It is now possible to create a heat map
- The timeslice feature has been added
- It is now possible to search by detection tool triggerings

- Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic
- Bahrain
- Korea
- Added new letter restrictions for Korea templates.
- Region No. 761 have been added to the templates for the Russian Federation.

- The ability to edit camera ID has been added
- The ability to quickly add cameras to a specific cell of the video wall from the objects panel and the map has been added
- It is now possible to select the previous/next camera by identifier in the video surveillance window using hot keys

New pose detection tools have been implemented:
It is now possible to add a camera from the map directly to the layout.
- When adding a camera to the system, it is now possible to enable the recording to the archive when the built-in motion detection is triggered
When launching an external program on the server, the camera ID can now be passed as an argument
Time of detection can now be added to text templates in macros used when sending SMS messages, E-mail messages and in web query.
When working with the Tag & Track Pro in manual mode, it is now possible to rotate the PTZ camera by clicking at a point on the viewing tile of the overview camera that does not contain a track.
- A new parameter has been added to the viewing tile appearance configuration - now you can hide all visual control elements of the inactive window.

Updating from previous versions
It is recommended to upgrade from earlier versions through steps: 3.6.4 -> 4.0.2 -> 4.1 -> 4.2.1 -> 4.2.2 -> 4.3.4 -> 4.4.0. To do this, run the installer of the new version and select the existing configuration during the installation. Deinstallation of the previous version is not required.
Important!
The Axxon Next 4.4.0 includes the newer PostgreSQL 10.8.0 database.
Do not update PostgreSQL up to 10.8.0 when upgrading Axxon Next from previous versions. It may cause the information in the database to be inaccessible.
Important!
Pay attention to these features when updating from version 3.6 to 4.4.0:
Auto rules, as well as the E-mail and SMS objects are not migrated to a new version.
System log events are not migrated.
- Detection zones are to be configured for detection tools.
In some cases some detection tools are not migrated to a new version.
- The key frame scaling is set in the archive settings for cameras streaming H.264.
- Select the video folder once again for virtual cameras.
- If necessary, re-create the layouts to make them availabile in the web client.
Important!
When upgrading from version 4.1, the simultaneous significant CPU load increase and the detection quality improvement are possible, if the motion detection is used with the Decode key frames option disabled.
This is due to the new motion detection algorithm.
Important!
Sometimes, when upgrading to version 4.4.0, there may be an issue on Client with the top panel displaying.
In this case, it is recommended to install the latest version of Intel Graphics Driver.
