8.2 Video Content Analysis (VCA)
The camera has integrated Video Content Analysis (VCA), which can detect and analyze
changes in the picture using image processing algorithms. Such changes can result from
movements in the camera's field of view. These movements can trigger an alarm and transmit
metadata. You can select various VCA configurations and adapt these to your application as
required.
Note : This section of the manual provides an overview of the fields and the options for each
field on the page VCA . This section is not a complete tutorial of setting up VCA . For more
information, refer to the separate manual Video Content Analysis (VCA), available on the
product page for Intelligent Video Analytics. Access the product page on the online product
catalog from
http://www.boschsecurity.com/corporate/product-catalog/index.html .
Note : If there is not enough computing power, priority is given to live images and recordings.
This can lead to impairment of the VCA system. Observe the processor load and optimize the
encoder settings or the VCA settings if necessary, or turn off VCA completely.
Help for VCA settings
A separate Help file provides information about configuring for the VCA settings.
