Object size - Object size is relative to the region size. At a high level, only very large objects are detected. At
a low level even very small objects trigger an event
History - History defines how long an object needs to be in a region before it is considered to be
non-moving. At a high level an object that appears in the region will trigger the motion detection for a long
period. At a low level an object that appears in the region will trigger motion detection for only a very short
period.
Sensitivity - Sensitivity defines the difference in luminance between the background and the object. At a
high level ordinary colored object on ordinary backgrounds will trigger motion. At a low level only very
bright objects on a dark background will trigger an event
