Single Camera Tracking
Single Camera Tracking can track a moving object using only one PTZ camera. When an object
moves within the view of camera, the PTZ camera will follow its movement. When the object is out of
view, the PTZ camera can be set to return its designated position.
For supported PTZ cameras for this feature, see Certified PTZ Models for Object Tracking in Appendix
C. Note the feature also supports the certified PTZ cameras connected from GV-Video Server and
GV-Compact DVR.
