Both processors can deliver continuous CTD concurrently with one of the four remaining video analytic functions, e.g. CTD plus IMD running simultaneously.
- 45 -  Face Detection: Detects faces from the camera’s video input. -Set whether or not to Enable Face Detection. -Select Sensitivity to set the sensitivity level. As the sensitivity grows, face detection becomes more close and detailed. -Select Direction to set directions for detection: up, left, and right. The system supports to detect faces with face inclination +/- 45°, face direction +/- 30° in vertical direction and +/- 60° in horizontal direction. - Set whether to use Detection result overlay. When faces are detected, their positions and sizes are marked with rectangles on the screen. -Set whether or not to Enable the calibration mask with minimum face size of 20x20 pixels TIP The Face Enhancement function improves the visibility of human face images, making it easier to see and identify in more natural conditions when monitoring and recording.
- 46 -  Face Recognition: Recognize faces from the camera’s pre-loaded database of faces. -Set whether or not to Enable Face Recognition. -Select Confidence Level to set the confidence threshold. Threshold for the input face confidence when compared to the faces in the database. - Set whether to use Face Register. It supports run-time addition and deletion of registered faces in the database.  Camera Tamper Detection Camera Tamper Detection (CTD) detects tampering events in surveillance cameras that may compromise the integrity of the video content. Examples of camera tampering include obstructing the lens with paint or a foreign object, adjusting the lens' focus or aperture settings, pointing the camera in a different direction, and
- 47 - turning off the lights (if indoors with no major change in ambient illumination expected). CTD can tolerate the effects of automatic camera gain, camera shaking that causes mild image jitter (less than +/- 4 pixels in any direction), and dimly lit scenes. - Set whether or not to Enable Camera Tamper Detection - Select Sensitivity to set the sensitivity level. The higher the sensitivity, detects the minutest tampering attempts. - Select Reset Time. Once a tampering is detected, the camera will resume a normal operating after a certain stability time (Reset Time) during which no detection will be performed. - Select Alarm Type to specify the activation condition.  Intelligent Motion Detection Detect the moving objects within user-defined zones in the camera’s field of view. This analytics event is triggered when a moving object in a user-defined zone is detected. Up to four zones can be defined within the camera’s field of view.
- 48 - Objects must be moving and visible within the boundary of a zone for at least 100 ms. Minimum and maximum dimensions supplied by the user serve as guidance to internal segmentation algorithms but do not strictly disqualify objects from consideration. Motion in any direction inside a zone will trigger an event. -Set whether or not to Enable Intelligent Motion Detection - Select Sensitivity to set the sensitivity level. A high sensitivity setting makes it less likely that an event is missed, but can make the algorithm susceptible to false alarms. - Select Calibration (People or Vehicle Object Sizes). The minimum and maximum bounding box size of objects can be specified to improve detection accuracy. People or Vehicle Minimum Size: minimum expected width and height of an object in the scene. Width and height values must be at least 6 pixels. If small objects cause unwanted
- 49 - false detections, consider increasing the minimum dimensions. People or Vehicle Maximum Size: maximum expected width and height of a person in the scene. Width and height maximum dimensions should be larger than their corresponding minimum dimensions, and should not exceed more than half the frame size. - Select Zones Settings to specify the multiple activation zones. Up to four independent zones, where each zone is a user-defined polygon with a maximum of 16 nodes. Each node defined by fixed-point coordinate pair lying within image boundaries. The first and last nodes should be identical. An object’s size must satisfy the minimum area defined by the size criterion (above) to be detected. The zone ID is reported along with the event.  Trip Zone Detects objects moving from one user-defined zone to another; can also be used for “wrong way” detection. A Trip Zone event occurs when an object(s) is detected moving across the common edge shared by exactly two adjacent zones. The zones are defined as two polygonal regions that
- 50 - share exactly one common edge. An object crossing this edge must appear in each zone for at least 0.5 seconds to be detected6. To satisfy the 0.5 second requirement, the size and shape of each zone should be large enough to accommodate the size and velocity of all targeted objects. -Zone 1: User defined polygon with a maximum of 16 nodes. Each node defined by fixed-point coordinate pair lying within image boundaries. Must be defined before Zone 2. The first and last nodes should be identical. -Zone 2: User defined polygon with a maximum of 16 nodes. Each node defined by fixed-point coordinate pair lying within image boundaries. Must be defined after Zone 1. The first and last nodes should be identical. -Directionality: Zone 1 to Zone 2: Event detected only if object moves from zone 1 to zone 2.
- 51 - Zone 2 to Zone 1: Event detected only if object moves from zone 2 to zone 1. Bi-directional: Event detected if object moves either from zone 1 to 2 or from zone 2 to 1. -Sensitivity: A high sensitivity setting makes it less likely that an event is missed, but can make the algorithm susceptible to false alarms. -Object Sizes: People Minimum Size – minimum expected width and height of a person in the scene. Width and height values must be greater than 16 pixels. People Maximum Size – maximum expected width and height of a person in the scene. Object width must be less than 80 pixels and height must be less than 48 pixels. Vehicle Minimum Size – minimum expected width and height of a vehicle in the scene. Width and height values must be greater than 16 pixels. Vehicle Maximum Size – maximum expected width and
- 52 - height of a vehicle in the scene. Object width must be less than 80 pixels and height must be less than 48 pixels.  Object Counting: Count the number of objects moving through the camera’s field of view (from top-to-bottom or from left-to-right). An Object Counting event occurs when an object is detected moving from one half of the image to the other half. This application provides an estimate of the number of objects that trigger the event. Each half of the image is designated as either zone 1 or zone 2. The objects must appear in each image zone for at least 0.5 seconds. - Counter Orientation: Top-Bottom: Event detected when objects move across top and bottom halves of the image. Left-Right: Event detected when objects move across left and right halves of the image.
- 53 - - Directionality: Zone 1 to Zone 2: Event detected only if object moves from zone 1 to zone 2 Zone 2 to Zone 1: Event detected only if object moves from zone 2 to zone 1 Bi-directional: Event detected if object moves either from zone 1 to 2 or from zone 2 to 1 - Sensitivity: A high sensitivity setting makes it less likely that an event is missed, but can make the algorithm susceptible to false alarms. - Object Sizes: Expected width and height of an object in the scene. Width and height values must be greater than 16 pixels, and smaller than 64 pixels.

A ADPCM Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation, a new technology improved from PCM, which encodes analog sounds to digital form. AMR AMR (Adaptive Multi-Rate) is an audio data compression scheme optimized for speech coding, which is adopted as the standard speech codec by 3GPP. Applet Applets are small Java programs that can be embedded in an HTML page. The rule at the moment is that an applet can only make an Internet connection to the computer form that the applet was sent. ASCII American Standard Code For Information Interchange, it is the standard method for encoding characters as 8-bit sequences of binary numbers, allowing a maximum of 256 characters. ARP Address Resolution Protocol. ARP is a protocol that resides at the TCP/IP Internet layer that delivers data on the same network by translating an IP address to a physical address.
- 58 - AVI Audio Video Interleave, it is a Windows platform audio and video file type, a common format for small movies and videos. B BOOTP Bootstrap Protocol is an Internet protocol that can automatically configure a network device in a diskless workstation to give its own IP address. C Communication Communication has four components: sender, receiver, message, and medium. In networks, devices and application tasks and processes communicate messages to each other over media. They represent the sender and receivers. The data they send is the message. The cabling or transmission method they use is the medium. Connection In networking, two devices establish a connection to communicate with each other. D DHCP Developed by Microsoft, DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected. It also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses. This simplifies the task for network administrators because the software keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to manage the task. A new computer can be added to a network without the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address. DHCP allows the specification for the service provided by a router, gateway, or other network device that automatically assigns an IP address to any device that requests one. DNS Domain Name System is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Since
- 59 - domain names are alphabetic, they're easier to remember. The Internet however, is really based on IP addresses every time you use a domain name the DNS will translate the name into the corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name www.network_camera.com might translate to 192.167.222.8. E Enterprise network An enterprise network consists of collections of networks connected to each other over a geographically dispersed area. The enterprise network serves the needs of a widely distributed company and operates the company’s mission-critical applications. Ethernet The most popular LAN communication technology. There are a variety of types of Ethernet, including 10Mbps (traditional Ethernet), 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet), and 1,000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet). Most Ethernet networks use Category 5 cabling to carry information, in the form of electrical signals, between devices. Ethernet is an implementation of CSMA/CD that operates in a bus or star topology. F Fast Ethernet Fast Ethernet, also called 100BASE-T, operates at 10 or 100Mbps per second over UTP, STP, or fiber-optic media. Firewall Firewall is considered the first line of defense in protecting private information. For better security, data can be encrypted. A system designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network. Firewalls are frequently used to prevent unauthorized Internet users from accessing private networks connected to the Internet, especially Intranets all messages entering or leaving the intranet pass through the firewall, which examines each message and blocks those that do not meet the specified security criteria.
- 60 - G Gateway A gateway links computers that use different data formats together. Group Groups consist of several user machines that have similar characteristics such as being in the same department. H HEX Short for hexadecimal refers to the base-16 number system, which consists of 16 unique symbols: the numbers 0 to 9 and the letters A to F. For example, the decimal number 15 is represented as F in the hexadecimal numbering system. The hexadecimal system is useful because it can represent every byte (8 bits) as two consecutive hexadecimal digits. It is easier for humans to read hexadecimal numbers than binary numbers. I Intranet This is a private network, inside an organization or company that uses the same software you will find on the public Internet. The only difference is that an Intranet is used for internal usage only. Internet The Internet is a globally linked system of computers that are logically connected based on the Internet Protocol (IP). The Internet provides different ways to access private and public information worldwide. Internet address To participate in Internet communications and on Internet Protocol-based networks, a node must have an Internet address that identifies it to the other nodes. All Internet addresses are IP addresses IP Internet Protocol is the standard that describes the layout of the basic unit of information on the Internet (the packet) and also details the numerical addressing format used to route the information. Your Internet service provider controls the IP address of any device it connects to the Internet. The IP addresses in your network must conform to IP addressing rules. In smaller
- 61 - LANs, most people will allow the DHCP function of a router or gateway to assign the IP addresses on internal networks. IP address IP address is a 32-binary digit number that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the Internet. For example 80.80.80.69 is an IP address. When you “call” that number, using any connection methods, you get connected to the computer that “owns” that IP address. ISP ISP (Internet Service Provider) is a company that maintains a network that is linked to the Internet by way of a dedicated communication line. An ISP offers the use of its dedicated communication lines to companies or individuals who can’t afford the high monthly cost for a direct connection. J JAVA Java is a programming language that is specially designed for writing programs that can be safely downloaded to your computer through the Internet without the fear of viruses. It is an object-oriented multi-thread programming best for creating applets and applications for the Internet, Intranet and other complex, distributed network. L LAN Local Area Network a computer network that spans a relatively small area sharing common resources. Most LANs are confined to a single building or group of buildings. M MJPEG MJPEG (Motion JPEG) composes a moving image by storing each frame of a moving picture sequence in JPEG compression, and then decompressing and displaying each frame at rapid speed to show the moving picture.
- 62 - MPEG4 MPEG4 is designed to enable transmission and reception of high-quality audio and video over the Internet and next-generation mobile telephones. N NAT Network Address Translator generally applied by a router that makes many different IP addresses on an internal network appear to the Internet as a single address. For routing messages properly within your network, each device requires a unique IP address. But the addresses may not be valid outside your network. NAT solves the problem. When devices within your network request information from the Internet, the requests are forwarded to the Internet under the router's IP address. NAT distributes the responses to the proper IP addresses within your network. Network A network consists of a collection of two or more devices, people, or components that communicate with each other over physical or virtual media. The most common types of network are: LAN – (local area network): Computers are in close distance to one another. They are usually in the same office space, room, or building. WAN – (wide area network): The computers are in different geographic locations and are connected by telephone lines or radio waves. NWay Protocol A network protocol that can automatically negotiate the highest possible transmission speed between two devices. P PCM PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) is a technique for converting analog audio signals into digital form for transmission. PING Packet Internet Groper, a utility used to determine whether a specific IP address is accessible. It functions by sending a packet to the specified address and waits for a reply. It is primarily used to troubleshoot Internet
- 63 - connections. PPPoE Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. PPPoE is a specification for connecting the users on an Ethernet to the Internet through a common broadband medium, such as DSL or cable modem. All the users over the Ethernet share a common connection. Protocol Communication on the network is governed by sets of rules called protocols. Protocols provide the guidelines devices use to communicate with each other, and thus they have different functions. Some protocols are responsible for formatting and presenting and presenting data that will be transferred from file server memory to the file server’s net work adapter Others are responsible for filtering information between networks and forwarding data to its destination. Still other protocols dictate how data is transferred across the medium, and how servers respond to workstation requests and vice versa. Common network protocols responsible for the presentation and formatting of data for a network operating system are the Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) protocol or the Internet Protocol (IP). Protocols that dictate the format of data for transferors the medium include token-passing and Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD), implemented as token-ring, ARCNET, FDDI, or Ethernet. The Router Information Protocol (RIP),a part of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) suite, forwards packets from one network to another using the same network protocol. R RJ-45 RJ-45 connector is used for Ethernet cable connections. Router A router is the network software or hardware entity charged with routing packets between networks. RTP RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is a data transfer protocol defined to deliver live media to the clients at the same time, which defines the transmission of video
- 64 - and audio files in real time for Internet applications. RTSP RTSP (Real-time Streaming Protocol) is the standard used to transmit stored media to the client(s) at the same time, which provides client controls for random access to the content stream. S Server It is a simple computer that provides resources, such as files or other information. SIP SIP (Session Initiated Protocol) is a standard protocol that delivers the real-time communication for Voice over IP (VoIP), which establishes sessions for features such as audio and video conferencing. SMTP The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is used for Internet mail. SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol. SNMP was designed to provide a common foundation for managing network devices. Station In LANs, a station consists of a device that can communicate data on the network. In FDDI, a station includes both physical nodes and addressable logical devices. Workstations, single-attach stations, dual-attach stations, and concentrators are FDDI stations. Subnet mask In TCP/IP, the bits used to create the subnet are called the subnet mask. T (TCP/IP) Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol is a widely used transport protocol that connects diverse computers of various transmission methods. It was developed y the Department of Defense to connect different computer types and led to the development of the Internet. Transceiver A transceiver joins two network segments together. Transceivers can also be used to join a segment that uses one medium to a segment that uses a different medium. On a 10BASE-5 network, the transceiver
- 65 - connects the network adapter or other network device to the medium. Transceivers also can be used on 10BASE-2 or 10BASE-T networks to attach devices with AUI ports. U UDP The User Datagram Protocol is a connectionless protocol that resides above IP in the TCP/IP suite User Name The USERNAME is the unique name assigned to each person who has access to the LAN. Utility It is a program that performs a specific task. UTP Unshielded twisted-pair. UTP is a form of cable used by all access methods. It consists of several pairs of wires enclosed in an unshielded sheath. W WAN Wide-Area Network. A wide-area network consists of groups of interconnected computers that are separated by a wide distance and communicate with each other via common carrier telecommunication techniques. WEP WEP is widely used as the basic security protocol in Wi-Fi networks, which secures data transmissions using 64-bit or 128-bit encryption. Windows Windows is a graphical user interface for workstations that use DOS. WPA WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is used to improve the security of Wi-Fi networks, replacing the current WEP standard. It uses its own encryption, Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), to secure data during transmission. WPA2 Wi-Fi Protected Access 2, the latest security specification that provides greater data protection and network access control for Wi-Fi networks. WPA2 uses the government-grade AES encryption algorithm and IEEE 802.1X-based authentication, which are required to secure large corporate networks.
