Starlight vs Night Color

I suggested a $400ish PTZ lol. Actually I think $440.

But the SD6A is an incredible night performer as it uses a laser instead of LED for the IR. And has a windshield wiper to clean the lens LOL.

Shit - completely missed that. Sorry. How is the 49425 in night at distance? I'm assuming I could use a different camera to tell it where to track and zoom to?

Thanks!!!!

The 49425 isn't as good as the 49225 as they are both on the same size sensor. Andy was the only one that still had the 49225 with autotracking, so even if you find it from another vendor, that will be missing.

Now with that said, given your use case and 150 feet out, I think the 49425 would do ok with the registration on a boat. Most of these are going to be what white boat with black lettering or dark boat with white lettering, so the contrast should be there. It would probably be B/W and infrared at night though.

For faces, it would start to get questionable, but for your use case I think it will work.

And yes, with an NVR or Blue Iris, you could use your fixed cameras to tell the PTZ where to point to.

Thanks.

It looks like I might need to picks up a couple of the PTZ cameras that wittaj suggested (the IPC-T2231T-ZS only zooms, I need on that can auto-track) and see if I can tie it into the motion sensors of the cameras I currently have. I think that will be my best bet for getting the coverage I want and still stay in our budget.

Yep, trying to sell to recover loss. Prices are a little negotiable as I realize each day I hold them like fruit they lose value

...This just in.....It seems my 6mm is showing the substream. I don't know why. it used to toggle between Sub and Main when going Solo to one cam in BI. Somethings amiss. That could possibly be the Substream image.

Sorry just skimmed this but I think @wittaj touched on using a good (or a couple) overview camera like the 4K-X that doubles as a spotter for a high power PTZ.
The 6 series PTZ with the laser IR is awesome and tracks well out to 500-600 ft as shown in the video below. It will go further but I'm limited in distance

(Remember to choose 1440 for the Youtube player)

Hi,
I became also an onwer of SD6AL433XA-HNR.
It is a good camera but I have some problems with setup autotracking.
Could you tell me how you setup this autotracking on the video?
As far as I know to setup autotracking I need IVS rules for it.
Is it true?
Can I setup autotracking without IVS for instance for motion detection?
I want to autotrack any moving inside some area.
Is it possible?

Yes you need IVS. Here is the quick and dirty:

You need to set up a preset.

Then you need to set-up the Smart Plan with Deep IVS for the presets you want to track.

Then select the object filters you want.

Then go to Deep IVS Rules Config page and you should see Track Time under alarm and Tracking Target size slider.

When setting up IVS rules, I strongly recommend you use intrusion box with appears and crosses instead of tripwire. And less is more. One IVS rule.

Leave min size as 0,0

Make sure that Motion Detection and Smart Motion Detection are turned off.

I repeat, make sure Motion Detection and Smart Motion Detection are turned off LOL.

And then follow this thread on how to setup spotter cams if you have enough cameras and the system to do so:

Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

We get this question from time to time, so I thought with the recent addition to BI, it made sense to have a thread we can point to. Previously in BI, if you had more than one spotter cam, you could not make one a priority, so if spotter cam #1 triggered the PTZ and it starts tracking and...

Do the PZTs track boats?

If it can see a person it can LOL.

Who uses Dahua AI capable cameras? Reliable AI for triggering events? Pro's/con's?

It has come to my attention that certain Dahua cameras come with built in AI that distinguishes between human & cars. I was unaware of this. Well, always saw the AI word used in the reviews but never really thought about it because I thought it was a Dahua NVR integration only. I am currently...

By default it won't track boats but you can set min size to try to get it to track or it might think it is a vehicle and track it. Might be some other tricks too. But if it is mission critical to track boats, I don't know if I would trust it.
