Orientation
Specifies the orientation of the camera. You can choose one of the following
camera positions:
•
Normal— This default setting is a non-inverted camera orientation.
•
Inverted—This is an upside-down camera orientation.
Note: This setting is available only when you have installed an EagleEye IV
camera. To learn how to enable the setting, refer to
EagleEye IV Camera
Orientation
.
Optimized for
Specifies Motion or Sharpness for the video input.
•
Motion—This setting is for showing people or other video with motion.
•
Sharpness—The picture will be sharp and clear, but moderate to heavy
motion at low call rates can cause some frames to be dropped. Sharpness
is available in point-to-point H.263 and H.264 calls only. It is required for HD
calls between 512 kbps and 2 Mbps.
Tracking Mode (EagleEye
Director)
Specifies the type of camera tracking:
•
Voice—Tracks the speaker. When another speaker starts talking, the view
switches from the first speaker to the room, then to the next speaker.
•
Direct Cut—Tracks directly from speaker to speaker if silence intervals are
less than 3 seconds. You must recalibrate the left camera when you select
Direct Cut mode.
If camera tracking has not been calibrated, Tracking Mode is unavailable.
Note: This setting is available only when you have installed an EagleEye
Director.
Tracking Speed (EagleEye
Director)
Determines how quickly the system finds someone new and switches to that
person.
Note: This setting is available only when you have installed an EagleEye
Director.
Backlight Compensation
Specifies whether to have the camera automatically adjust for a bright
background. Backlight compensation is best used in situations where the
subject appears darker than the background.
Enabling this setting helps to relieve a bright background, which can impact
the tracking performance of the Polycom EagleEye Director.
White Balance
Specifies how the camera compensates for variations in room light sources.
Select Auto, Manual, or a color temperature value. The color temperature
values, measured in degrees Kelvin, correspond to the color of ambient light in
a room. Because the available color temperature values vary by camera, this
list is only a sampling of some of the values you might see in the interface:
•
3200 K (tungsten bulb)
•
3680 K (warm office fluorescent)
•
4160 K (cool office fluorescent)
•
5120 K (neutral daylight)
•
5600 K (cool daylight)
