ObjectVideo's numerous patented algorithms enable our industry leading software to intelligently discern objects of interest; distinguish between humans, vehicles and other objects; and continuously track positions for all moving and stationary targets.
All user-defined rules are processed within the intelligent device itself for immediate comparison to the other video analysis functions. Co-locating the video analysis and the rule inference enables end-users to deploy intelligent video at any point in the video ecosystem. Significant network bandwidth is not required to bring together the video analysis and rule inference, nor is massive storage required to save video frames for after-the-fact processing. Additionally, co-locating the video and rule analysis on the device enables easier integration with other embedded software, such as video codecs that enable event-driven video streaming and intelligent object markup.
ObjectVideo provides ultimate flexibility in its software packaging. Standard packages of robust feature sets are available to meet the demands of every type of customer – from the building manager who needs perimeter protection, to the bank manager who needs a solution tailored to his branch operation, to the airport security team who needs full capability indoor and outdoor. In addition, ObjectVideo can un-bundle features and offer custom packages, including point solutions for targeted functionality. Regardless of the feature set and the number of rules, the processing and memory profile remains the same.
Because ObjectVideo’s software features are controlled by activation keys, an easy upgrade path for any OnBoard-enabled device is assured. With activation keys, upgrades can be handled over the network without the need to upload new software or physically touch each device.
Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) cameras are essential devices in almost any CCTV environment. ObjectVideo can add intelligence to any PTZ camera by allowing multiple camera views/positions to be defined, each with its own unique set of rules. ObjectVideo OnBoard will automatically recognize which view the camera is using and quickly engage the appropriate rule set.
In addition to analyzing video for object detection, classification and tracking, ObjectVideo enables users to create rules and notifications appropriate for those rules. Users can create rules that mimic defined security policies and receive real-time, actionable alerts when those rules are violated. Also users can define rules to gather business intelligence about customer behaviors or gather data for historical reporting and analysis. Available rule types include detection of objects crossing single or multiple Video TripWires, loitering, entering or exiting areas of interest, left behind or taken away objects, occupancy, and dwell time.
Through an advanced set of algorithms, ObjectVideo offers the most superior people counting solution available in the market today. The
Event Counting Suite is highly optimized for event-based and occupancy counting scenarios, not requiring direct overhead camera positions. The suite also enables multi-rule and cross-camera counting scenarios, and provides a new Web-enabled user interface to easily manage, monitor and report on counting data.
ObjectVideo Forensics is a feature that allows users to discern critical intelligence about the environment based on past events. With this optional add-on, users can repeatedly apply rules to any repository of collected or stored video, and understand how to better define rules in the future.
ObjectVideo OnBoard supports high-resolution video processing, allowing for better image detail and larger coverage areas (more than double in most cases). As a result, ObjectVideo identifies, classifies, and tracks objects from much greater distances in high-resolution cameras.
The open architecture of the ObjectVideo system empowers
OEMs to quickly and easily integrate our technology within their products for a wholly differentiated solution. Available reference hardware designs and a robust API framework guarantees plug-and-play interoperability with any device or existing environment. The ObjectVideo SDK also includes functionality for re-branding existing interfaces, designing and building new GUIs, or integrating with existing user applications.
