Ideal Scene Setup for Abandoned Object: An airport terminal is a typical installation for the Abandoned
Object behavior. This behavior can also detect objects left behind at an ATM, signaling possible card
skimming.
Using Adaptive Motion
The Adaptive Motion behavior detects and tracks objects that enter a scene and then triggers an alarm
when the objects enter a user-defined zone.
The Adaptive Motion behavior is designed to work indoors and outdoors to track a few moving objects in
uncrowded fields of view. The behavior learns the background scene over time and adjusts to changing
conditions like snow, fog, wind, and rain.
Install the camera in a ceiling or against a wall with the lens pointing at a slight downward angle, above
regular motion activity.
The ideal scene for Adaptive Motion behavior is one with light traffic and a clean background. If heavy
traffic or a busy background is unavoidable, place zones in a relatively stable area.
Avoid crowded scenes where people move in all directions or stand in place for long periods of time.
Note: Objects that are very small might not be classified as the correct object type. This could result
in false alarms or alarms not being triggered. If objects appear too small in the scene, zoom in on the
particular zone of interest or move the camera closer to the zone of interest to increase the relative
size of the objects in the scene.
Using Auto Tracker
The AutoTracker behavior detects and tracks movement in the camera’s field of view. When the
AutoTracker behavior is configured, the system automatically pans and tilts to follow the moving object
until the object stops or exits the monitored area.
When advanced options are enabled for AutoTracker behaviors, any excluded zones that you have
previously created within the scene are disabled. You can create additional excluded zones, but the zones
will remain exclusive to the behavior within the selected profile.
The ideal scene for the AutoTracker behavior contains light traffic and a clean background. If heavy traffic
or a busy background is unavoidable, place zones relatively stable areas.
Avoid crowded scenes where people move in all directions or stand in place for long periods of time.
Directional Motion
The Directional Motion behavior generates an alarm in a high traffic area when a person or object moves in
a specified direction. Examples of typical installations for this behavior include airports, entrances and
exits, and vehicle traffic through tunnels.
l In an airport installation, cameras observe passengers boarding a plane in a terminal. If a person
moves in the opposite direction of the normal flow of traffic, an alarm triggers.
l In a tunnel installation, an operator wants to observe traffic flow. If a car enters a tunnel through an
exit, an alarm alerts the operator to activate the traffic signals to stop all traffic in the tunnel.
l In an entrance or exit installation, a camera is pointed at an exit door. If a person tries to enter
through the exit door, an alarm triggers.
Install the camera in a ceiling or against a wall with the lens pointing at a slight downward angle, above
regular motion activity. The width of the object you want to detect should be at least one-tenth of the total
width of the scene. To achieve increased accuracy in a crowded scene, set the width of the object to one-
sixth of the total width of the scene.
