In this video, we explore how Object Counting works and how it can be used to gather useful data from camera analytics.
We start with a quick explanation of the theory behind object counting, then move on to the practical setup. You’ll learn how to configure object counting by line, allowing the system to count objects as they cross a defined boundary.
The video also covers how to set up automatic reports through the NVR, including configuring the email sender credentials so reports can be sent directly to your inbox.
We then walk through how to interpret the report data and demonstrate how to create clear charts in Excel for easier analysis and presentation.
In addition, we show how to generate reports directly from the IPC, as well as how to configure staying thresholds and event triggers to detect when objects remain in an area longer than expected.
Finally, we demonstrate object counting by area, along with options to customize the on-screen display (OSD) text to show counting information directly on the video feed.
