Fire and smoke Detection (CPU)Fire and smoke detection based on neural networkIn order to enhance quality of operation and reduce CPU usage, it is recommended to use the detection tool with calculation on GPU.
Fire and Smoke Detection (GPU)Fire and smoke detection based on neural network using the GPU resources.

500 MB of video memory per detection type is required regardless of the number of channels. For example, for any number of smoke detection channels, 500 MB is required, and if the server has any number of both smoke and fire detector channels at the same time, a video card with at least 1 GB of memory should be in use.

Several video cards can be in use in one system.

If the Time between processed frames in seconds parameter is set to the default value (10 seconds), any NVIDIA graphics card compatible with the detection tool will be suitable (see the requirements in the Axxon Next User Guide).

Pose detection (CPU, 3fps)Pose detection based on neural network

The number of specific pose detection tools created under the Pose detection object does not affect the calculation results (except Close-standing people detection which contributes to the overall load).

The platform is calculated for Delay between two measurements value of 333 ms (i.e. 3 fps which is different from the default value).

VCA with neural filter (GPU)

For each track, one image per second is sent to neural network for classification.

  • The NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 video card is capable of processing about 70* classifications** per second.
  • The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 video card is capable of processing about 220*** classifications per second.
  • The NVIDIA Tesla P40 video card is capable of processing about 122**** classifications per second.
