Crowd Detection event settings
The event settings for Crowd Detection are visible when you select it as the video engine for an event.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
|
Alarm type |
Select whether the event responds to capacity (number of people) or occupancy (area occupied by people). |
|
Duration |
Set the amount of time over which Crowd Detection averages values. A higher duration reduces the number of alarms but increases the possibility of missed alarms. A lower duration increases the number of alarms but increases the possibility of false alarms. |
|
Threshold |
Use the slider bar to define the values that trigger the event. Values that fall outside of the threshold trigger the event. For the capacity alarm type, the slider represents the percentage of the maximum capacity that you configure for the Crowd Detection video analytic. For the occupancy alarm type, the slider represents the percentage of the scene (defined by the processing mask) occupied by people. |
