Enhancing Video for Security

Motion Search

Motion search is used to search video for motion, independently of settings made for Motion detection. A motion search is performed using View software. See the Rapid Eye View Software Operator Guide for procedures and tips.

Comparing Motion Detection and Motion Search

Motion search differs from motion detection. See table 7–1, below.

Camera Sabotage: Detection

Flexibility

Use of camera sabotage detection (CSD) is optional. In use, operators obtain an alarm or a log entry when a camera is blinded, blurred or moved. The settings for CSD are made on each camera, separately. Video is not affected by CSD settings.
