Security: Video

This article explains what is IVA Pro Perimeter and what does 2D & 3D Tracking Parameters mean.

The field intersection trigger “edge of box” means the field alarms whenever any part of the object’s bounding box overlaps with the alarm field

The calibration can be done by using already recorded videos, as is demonstrated in the video below. Either video recorded on the camera's SD card or on a recorder can be used. This can save calibration time and can be done by a single person.

Global VCA under the VCA task in Configuration Manager is used from default on the camera (with no specific configured VCA Rules). VCA Profile: Global (from Positioning) is used to set the same height of the camera for all VCA profiles.

One of the reason for this error when trying to access the VCA Tasks/ Metadata Generation could be generated because of the configured tasks which exceeded the Script Size limit (limit=2000 bytes) and metadata cannot be read.

We found that there was a change in the way intelligent tracking worked after CPP 7.3 firmware v7.62.0005. With these changes if an object triggered an alarm that turned on intelligent tracking, the camera would not track the object. It would wait for another object to trigger an alarm to track it.

This is a Camera Trainer exercise that shows how you can Train the Camera for paper jam detection on the paper shredder.

An installer doesn’t need to travel to customer's site for fine tuning the configuration, when a Camera Analytics task brings false alarms. The VCA task editor can be used for easy analytic configuration or for troubleshooting.

Unsupported camera model: Auto-calibration is currently not supported for this camera model. Calibration could produce wrong results or might not work. Why is this message displayed in Configuration Manager?

This article presents what does each Task of Video Analytics (Bosch Security and Safety Systems).

This article explains what is Intelligent Video Analytics IVA and recommends  when to use it. Bosch Intelligent Video Analytics is a video analytics type delivered as standard with Bosch IP 7000 to 9000 series with CPP7.3 and older. Furthermore, it does include a hardware accelerator to provide some extra power. 

This articles explains what  is Essential Video Analytics and also recommends when to use it. Essential Video Analytics allows you to record all of the object information and change the rules even after the fact for fully configurable forensic search.  

Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) Pro provides application-specific packages for building security and operations (IVA Pro Buildings), perimeter security (IVA Pro Perimeter), and traffic monitoring (IVA Pro Traffic). While some of the IVA Pro variants are included by default on supported cameras, others can be added via licenses. This article is dedicated to describing the license process in full.

Can I mask areas that should not trigger an alarm (e.g. false detection due to sun reflection)?

In contrast to the moving objects detected in general by IVA 7.10, Camera Trainer allows detection of both moving and non-moving objects, separates, and immediately classifies them. Learn more about Camera Training from this article!

This article explains steb by step how to create the VCA fields for multiple presets in Configuration Manager.

Applicable when using the following software application. Bosch Video Management System (BVMS) version 10.0.1 and above. Bosch Configuration Manager version 7.0 and above. Live page on the web browser for IP camera operating on firmware version 7.70.0126 and above.

This article describes how to count with Bosch Video Analytics with How to Video and a Technical Note on the topic.

Different devices, whether cameras or encoders, offer a different amount of processing power for video content analysis (VCA).
