-
Face Search-

Face search detection tool in Axxon Next version 4.0 and newer.

-
Fire and smoke Detection (CPU)-Fire and smoke detection based on neural networkIn order to enhance quality of operation and reduce CPU usage, it is recommended to use the detection tool with calculation on GPU.
Fire and Smoke Detection (GPU)YesFire and smoke detection based on neural network using the GPU resources.

Video card requirements:

  • minimum 2 GB of memory;
  • support for Compute Capability 3.0 or later. Please check the Compute Capability version of the video card on the manufacturer's page.
The detection tool uses

500 MB of video memory per detection type is required regardless of the number of channels.

Example: for 4 channels of fire detection tool

For example, for any number of smoke detection channels, 500 MB is required, and if the server has any number of both smoke and fire detector channels at the same time, a video card with

no less than 500 MB of memory is required.

at least 1 GB of memory should be in use.

Several video cards can be in use in one system.

Smoke Detection (CPU)-Smoke detection based on neural network in Axxon Next version 4.1 and newer.In order to enhance quality of operation and reduce CPU usage, it is recommended to use the detection tool with calculation on GPU.
Smoke Detection (GPU)Yes

Video card requirements:

  • minimum 2 GB of memory;
  • support for Compute Capability 3.0 or later. Please check the Compute Capability version of the video card on the manufacturer's page.
The detection tool uses 500 MB of video memory regardless of number of channels. Example: for 4 channels of smoke detection tool, a video card with no less than 500 MB of memory is required. Several video cards can be in use in one system

If the Time between processed frames in seconds parameter is set to the default value (10 seconds), any NVidia graphics card compatible with the detection tool will be suitable (see the requirements in the Axxon Next User Guide).

VCA with neural filter (GPU)Yes

Object trajectories detection tool (VMDA) based on neural network in Axxon Next and Intellect.

Video card requirements:

  • minimum 2 GB of memory;
  • Compute Capability 3.0 or later. Please check the Compute Capability version of the video card on the manufacturer's page.

    network and using the GPU resources

    For each track, one image per second is sent to neural network for classification.

    • The NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 video card is capable of processing about 70* classifications** per second.
    • The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 video card is capable of processing about 220*** classifications per second.
    • The NVIDIA Tesla P40 video card is capable of processing about 122**** classifications per second.
    • The Intel Neural Compute Stick 1 (movidius I) is capable of processing about 58***** classifications per second.

    • The Intel Neural Compute Stick 2 (movidius II) is capable of processing about 200***** classifications per second.

    Several video cards can be in use in one system.

    For example, if you need to track 9 persons per second on 10 cameras, GeForce GTX 1070 or similar video card is suitable.

    Up to two Intel Neural Compute Stick can be in use in one system.

    Video Content Analytics (IV)-A smart video detection tool in Axxon Next-
    Service detection (key frames)-

    Axxon Next detection tools:

    • Loss of quality;
    • Blurred Image Detection;
    • Compression Artifacts Detection;
    • Image Noise Detection;
    • Position change.
    -
    VCA (Axis ACAP)-For Axis IP-devices only. This is an AxxonSoft Video Content Analytic (VCA) detection tool built into Axis device. See also AxxonSoft tracking in Axis devices (Intellect) or AxxonSoft tracking in Axis devices (Axxon Next).The detection tool performs calculations using camera resources, and therefore has low hardware requirements.
