2. What distance from the camera’s center is this level of detail required?
3. Are there any restrictions around mounting cameras to walls and/or ceilings?
We recommend utilizing the fisheye camera to detect an event of interest, and a fixed lens or varifocal camera to identify
key details for further action. For example, if placing an MV32 in the center of a room, an MV12 or MV22 camera that
is placed facing key points of entry will provide you the level of detail in the event that person identification is required.
General Guidelines
To maximize the coverage of your MV32, the right placement and positioning is essential. The following tips and
guidelines should be considered when positioning your MV32:
• Mount the camera 10 - 14 ft (3 - 4.3 m) above the ground to optimize for object detail within 20 ft (6.1m) of the
surrounding area. At this height, the on-board analytics can detect objects within a radius of up to 25 ft (7.6 m) from
the camera’s center.
• Position your camera away from corners to fully utilize its 360 degree FoV. The ideal placement is typically on
the ceiling at or near the center of a room.
• Keep ambient lighting consistent. With a larger FoV, it can be difficult to maintain consistent lighting conditions
throughout the entire frame. Two areas of drastically different lux levels will impact the quality of your video stream.
Monitor your camera’s visibility during installation to determine if additional light sources are required to capture the
entire scene. Avoid placing cameras where light sources are pointed directly at the camera dome, as this can cause
degradation of image quality.
Coverage Guidelines
At the recommended height of 10-14 feet off the ground, the level of detail which can be captured from the camera is
represented below. The following screenshots will give you an idea of the level of detail you can expect to see from
certain distances away from the center of the camera. The subject is 5 ft 7 in (171 cm) tall and holding an MV gnome
which is 8 in (20 cm) tall.
• 0 to 10 feet: At this distance, detailed images can be captured which allow identification of an object or person.
Facial details can be discerned and small objects can be identified.
Note: If your surface is very high, you can use the Telescoping Pendant Mount to lower the mounting height of
the camera.
