• Camera height and angles: For FOVs of depth where movement towards the camera is to be detected, the camera angle and height should be adjusted based on the FOV depth, topology/detection plane angle of intersect. In general, greater heights with smaller inner (steeper) angles provide more pronounced visualization of movement on the detection plane towards or away from the camera.

If using white or yellow lighting, use a LUX meter and measure the lighting by facing the meter down. The reading for areas that will support detection in white or yellow light cameras should read at 5lux or greater. If using an infrared illuminator, check that the sensitivity of the camera chip matches the illuminator specifications.
