Detection Settings

Detection settings define what to detect, where to detect, which criteria to use, and how to send alerts.

AI Model Selection​

Choose models based on both target characteristics and resource constraints.

Basic principles:

  • General objects: prioritize general-purpose detection models
  • Irregular patterns (fire/smoke): prioritize models strong on those patterns
  • Resource-constrained environments: prioritize throughput-oriented models

Use model recommendation as a reference, but validate final choice with site data.



Applying settings in this order helps reduce rework.

  1. Select AI model
  2. Refine detection targets
  3. Finalize ROI
  4. Set category
  5. Connect alert channels
  6. Adjust brightness and perform final check

In early operations, change one item at a time and validate alert results.



Detection Target Settings​

Start from auto-extracted targets from scenario text, then refine during operation.

Recommended approach:

  • Remove unnecessary targets to reduce false-positive paths
  • Add required targets explicitly to reduce misses
  • Use reference-image detection for domain-specific objects


Detection ROI Settings​

Setting ROI reduces unnecessary detections and stabilizes performance.

Use polygon ROI as well as rectangular ROI to reflect complex site boundaries.

Tips:

  • Focus on meaningful zones like aisles, entry points, and worktables
  • Exclude areas with frequent background motion


Category Settings​

Categories are directly connected to alert prioritization and operational grouping. When category is set during camera/scenario setup, alert label and color follow that category.

Recommended categories:

  • Safety
  • Security
  • Facility/Operation
  • Disaster/Environment
  • Vehicle

Consistent categories make alert statistics, reporting, and response workflows easier.



External Alert Channel Settings​

You can configure immediate alert delivery to external channels. Webhook channels include Slack, Teams, and n8n.

Checklist:

  • Webhook validity by channel
  • Intended recipients
  • Priority propagation rules for urgent events

Since alert results branch into storage/delivery flows, separate channels by recipient role and alert level.



Screen Brightness Settings​

Video brightness can affect detection quality. For low-light/backlight environments, tune brightness for improved results.

  • Choose Auto/Manual/Unset mode

  • Validate by time of day when lighting changes significantly

    • Auto: adjusts brightness only when scene becomes dark
    • Manual: keeps user-configured brightness fixed
    • Unset: uses original source brightness

Recommended path: camera detail > more options > screen brightness. After applying, compare alert quality on the same scene.
