General warnings
The tracking function should mainly be used in indoor environments. Outdoor
use is highly problematic: the variety of objects (leafs, flags, litter, etc.) moved
by the wind makes use unreliable.
Provide the best lighting possible in the detection zone: in poor lighting
conditions, the inevitable presence of noise on the image makes grayscale
variations extremely critical. In poor lighting conditions, the camera may easily
lose the tracked object.
If IR illuminators are used, remember that:
The camera must be programmed to operate in B/W only because the
Slow Shutter will make tracking unreliable in color mode
The lighting entirely covers the frame where motion is tracked, possibly by
restricting the range of action of the camera in tracking mode (using the
