Have any of you used the new face detection feature in 5.1.6? How about the traverse a virtual plane that triggers motion detection if it crosses a line in a certain direction. I tested it briefly. Could not ID my face if my face took up the entire image but stand back about 2-3' and it identified my face anywhere on the screen, pretty cool. This is similar to the face detection on point and shot cameras. If you enable analysis, then a green box shows up around your face.
This may work better than generic motion detection.
This is what you get from the help button -
FACE DETECTION
If you enable the face detection, once a face appears in
the surveillance area, it will be detected and the linkage method will
be triggered by the detection.
Check the Enable Face Detection checkbox to enable the function.
Check the Enable Dynamic Analysis for Face Detection checkbox if you want the detected face get marked with green rectangle in the live view.
Configure the Sensitivity of face detection. Set the sensitivity higher will decrease the false alarm rate.
TRAVERSE VIRTUAL PLANE
Choose to linkage method as Notify Surveillance Center, Send Email, or Upload to FTP, and multi-selection is supported.
The traversing virtual plane function detects whether there
is an object going across the pre-defined virtual plane. And a series
of linkage method will be triggered if any object is detected.
Check the Enable Traversing Virtual Plane Detection checkbox.
(Optional)Check Dual-VCA
checkbox to enable the intelligent analysis in the data flow. It
enables the record files retrieval by both the front-end devices and
the back-end devices.
Click the Draw Area, and a virtual plane will show on the image.
You can click on the virtual plane to move it on the image to the desired position.
The two arrows show the direction rule of the virtual plane.
When you choose the direction as A<->B,
only the arrow on the B side shows; when an object going across the
plane with both direction can be detected and alarms are triggered.
When you choose the direction as A->B, only the object crossing the virtual plane in from the A side to the B side can be detected.
When you choose the direction as B->A, only the object crossing the virtual plane in from the B side to the A side can be detected.
Choose another virtual plane on the dropdown list to configure.
