  • Page 4: Overview

    PTZ is a groundbreaking new technology developed by VIVOTEK for monitoring open areas with extreme detail. This feature is realized through the synergy of a VIVOTEK megapixel fish- eye camera with a speed dome camera, and allows users to simultaneously monitor an area overview from a fisheye model while providing the capability for a detailed regional view from a speed dome.

  • Page 130 VIVOTEK NOTE: ► How does motion detection work? There are two motion detection parameters: Sensitivity and Percentage. In the illustration above, frame A and frame B are two sequential images. Pixel differences between the two frames are detected and highlighted in gray (frame C) and will be compared with the sensitivity setting. Sensitivity is a value that expresses the sensitivity to moving objects.
