AXIS Video Motion Detection

AXIS Video Motion Detection
AXIS Video Motion Detection is an application that detects moving objects in the camera's field of view. When a moving object
is detected, AXIS Video Motion Detection sends an alarm that can be used by the Axis product or by third-party software to
for example, record video or send a notification.
AXIS Video Motion Detection 3 is included with the Axis product and is available under Setup > Applications. To use AXIS Video
Motion Detection, the application must first be started. To avoid detecting unwanted objects, the application should be configured.
During configuration, visual confirmation can be used to help understand the effect of the different filters. When visual confirmation
is enabled, red polygons show which objects the application detects and green polygons show which objects the application ignores.

Considerations

Before using AXIS Video Motion Detection 3, take the following into consideration:
• Small and distant objects might not be detected.
• Detection accuracy may be affected by weather conditions such as heavy rain or snow.
• Make sure that the lighting conditions are within the Axis product's specification. Add additional lighting if needed.
• Make sure that the camera is not subject to excessive vibrations. Vibrations might trigger false alarms.

To configure AXIS Video Motion Detection 3, follow these steps:
1. Modify the size and position of the include area. This is the area in which moving objects will be detected. See Include
Area on page 31.
2. Optionally, add one or more exclude areas. Objects in an exclude area will be ignored. See Exclude Area on page 32.
3. Click Save to apply the changes.
4. Use visual confirmation to verify the settings. See Visual Confirmation on page 32.
5. If too many unwanted alarms are triggered, configure one or more of the ignore filters. See Ignore Filters on page 33.
After modifying a setting, click Save to apply the changes. The video stream will be restarted and it may take a few seconds
before the change is applied.
Include Area
The include area is the area in which moving objects will be detected. Objects moving outside the include area will be ignored.
The object will be detected also if only a part of the object is inside the include area.
