Using Intelligent Tracking
Configuring Intelligent Tracking
The camera utilizes the built-in Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) to continuously follow an
individual or object even if it passes behind a Privacy Mask or a stationary object. The camera
uses objects detected by IVA in a stationary preset position to activate the Intelligent Tracking
feature.
The Intelligent Tracking feature allows continuous on-screen following of an individual or an
object. This feature operates by recognizing an object in motion and zooms in to
approximately 50% of the field of view for an average target height of six feet. This feature
controls the pan/tilt/zoom actions of the camera to keep the selected object in the scene.
