What is radar-video fusion?
What is radar-video fusion?
There are two ways that the radar data is fused with the video data in this product:
•
Visual fusion
: The radar detections and classifications are fused into the video image. This is a way to visualize the radar
data in the video stream.
For example, if an object appears at 50 m (164 ft), it may be too small for the video analytics to detect, but the radar
sees it. In that case, the radar detections are fused into the image plane and can be used to trigger alarms inside AXIS
Object Analytics.
•
Analytics fusion
: The radar detections and classification are fused with the detections and classifications from the video
analytics. This gives the device a combined analytics output where the respective strengths of both technologies are
merged: the distance and speed from the radar, and the position and class from the video.
With the same example as above, when the object comes closer, it is also detected by the video analytics. The radar
detections are then fused with the video analytics output to produce an output of higher quality, and with more
information, than what the technologies can provide separately.
