3.1.3
Setting Analytics Properties
The Analytics Properties can be configured using the Setup page in the web interface, as described
in the next section. Also, the latest version of FLIR Sensors Manager provides a convenient way to
add the detection areas using the Advanced Sensor Control panel, and provides a graphical way to
view the near and far settings. The FSM method is described in section 3.1.3.2 “Using FSM to set
Analytics Properties” on page 3-8.
3.1.3.1Web Setup Analytics Properties
To simplify defining the Properties, set the parameters for
Human Size first and temporarily disable Vehicle
detection by setting Vehicle Size as follows: Tolerance=0,
Near Width=1, Near Height=1, Far Width=1, and Far
Height=1. Then scroll down and click
Save
. This will have
the effect of minimizing the number and size of detection
boxes displayed on the screen so that a single parameter
at a time can be addressed. After the Human Size
settings are satisfactory, return to this section and set the
Vehicle Size parameters.
To set the Human Size properties, have a person walk
around at the bottom of the area and adjust the Human
Size Near Width and Near Height parameters so the
blue box (max human) is roughly the same size as the
yellow detection box. Click
Save
.
Then, have the person walk around at the top of the
area and adjust the Human Size Far Width and Far
Height parameters so the purple box (min human) is the
same size as the yellow detection box around them.
Click
Save
.
The yellow detection box will change to orange when it
is within the maximum (blue) and the minimum (purple)
bounding boxes, which are calculated relative to the
near and far sizes and the position in the area.
Set the Human Size Tolerance to allow for expected
variations in the detected person size. The tolerance is
set independently for Human Size and Vehicle Size.
Repeat this same exercise using an appropriate vehicle
to determine the Vehicle Size parameters. Finally, set
the Vehicle Size Tolerance to allow for expected
variations in the detected vehicle size.
