Resolution should
  • Resolution must be at least 640x360 pixels.
  • Number of frames: the detection response rate
of the detection module
  • depends on the number of frames per second

Object images

  • The minimum area of fire/smoke in the frame depends on the neural network used. For a standard neural network (

the
  •  the area of fire/smoke
should
  • must be at least 10% of the frame area.
 In
  • In some cases, when the fire is well contained,
it may be sufficient for a detection tool that
  • the width/height of the fire zone
is
  • as 1-3% of the width/height of the frame
.
  •  can be sufficient for the detector
Note
titleAttention!

If you specify the surveillance area of interest is specified on the video image, then the above requirements are relevant for it , and not for the entire frame (see see Configuring the Fire detection and Smoke detection modules).

We don't guarantee the correct operation of fire and smoke detectors when you use the video stream and frames that were masked before they got to Axxon PSIM by the IP camera or similar means and methods.
