Here is the list of detection tools:
Name | Calculation on GPU | Product | Description | Features |
Video Content Analytic (VCA) | - | Axxon Next, Intellect | Object trajectories detection tool. | - |
Face detection (Cognitec) | - | Intellect | Face-Intellect face detection tool based on the Cognitec engine. | When calculating a platform using this detection tool, only resources for faces detecting and vectorization are taken into account. The load from comparing faces with a reference database is not taken into account, because usually a separate server is provided to perform this function. |
Main motion detection | - | Intellect | Basic motion detection tool in Intellect (a detection that is turned on when camera is armed) | - |
Motion Detection | - | Axxon Next | NOT a smart video detection tool in Axxon Next (Motion detection). | - |
Motion Detection (decode key frames) | - | Axxon Next | NOT a smart video detection tool in Axxon Next (Motion detection) with key frames decoding enabled. | - |
License Plate Recognition | - | Axxon Next | License plate recognition detection tool in Axxon Next version 4.0 and newer. | - |
Face Search | - | Axxon Next | Face search detection tool in Axxon Next version 4.0 and newer. | - |
LPR VIT | - | Intellect | Auto-Intellect, VIT license plate recognition module. | - |
People Counter | - | Intellect | People counter detection tool that is a part of Intellect Detector Pack. | Optimal parameters for this detection tool are resolution of 800x600 / 640x360 / 640x480 / 320x240 and FPS of 24 to 30. If specified parameters of the video stream do not meet these conditions, then when you select this detection tool the resolution is set to 320x240 and FPS to 24. |
Virtual Loop | - | Intellect | Auto-Intellect, Vehicle detector module and Vehicle processor module that are the part of the information-gathering subsystem. | - |
Glow detection | - | Intellect | Detection of light sources status on the video that is a part of Intellect Detector Pack. | - |
Face detection (Tevian) | - | Intellect | Face-Intellect face detection tool based on the Tevian engine. | When calculating a platform using this detection tool, only resources for faces detecting and vectorization are taken into account. The load from comparing faces with a reference database is not taken into account, because usually a separate server is provided to perform this function. |
Heat Map Detection | - | Intellect | Heat map detection tool that is a part of Intellect Detector Pack. | - |
Fire Detection (CPU) | - | Axxon Next | Fire detection based on neural network in Axxon Next version 4.1 and newer. | In order to enhance quality of operation and reduce CPU usage, it is recommended to use the detection tool with calculation on GPU. |
Fire Detection (GPU) | Yes | Axxon Next | Video card requirements:
For 1 detection tool channel, 500 MB of video memory shall be used. Example: for 4 channels of fire detection tool, a video card with no less than 2 GB of memory is required. Several video cards can be in use in one system. | |
Smoke Detection (CPU) | - | Axxon Next | Smoke detection based on neural network in Axxon Next version 4.1 and newer. | In order to enhance quality of operation and reduce CPU usage, it is recommended to use the detection tool with calculation on GPU. |
Smoke Detection (GPU) | Yes | Axxon Next | Video card requirements:
For 1 detection tool channel, 500 MB of video memory shall be used. Example: for 4 channels of smoke detection tool, a video card with no less than 2 GB of memory is required. Several video cards can be in use in one system. | |
VCA with neural networks (CPU) | - | Axxon Next, Intellect | Object trajectories detection tool (VMDA) based on neural network in Axxon Next and Intellect. | In order to enhance quality of operation and reduce CPU usage, it is recommended to use the detection tool with calculation on GPU. |
VCA with neural networks (GPU) | Yes | Axxon Next, Intellect | Video card requirements:
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 20 classifications per second, and the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 video card is capable of processing about 90 classifications per second. Several video cards can be in use in one system. |
After adding cameras to the list (see Selecting cameras ), the types of detection tools can be specified too.
The list of available detection tools depends on the selected software platform (see Selecting software platform).
Important!
Platforms calculator does not check if specified parameters match detection tools requirements for cameras. For instance, if specified fps is lower than that required for detection tool to operate, then platforms will be calculated but the calculated platform won’t suit the detection tool requirements.
The requirements of detection tool for cameras are specified in the documentation – see AxxonSoft documentation repository.
