Stitching Considerations

The following applies when stitching multiple SC8131 cameras:
1. The Stitching configuration takes place on the Master camera. 1 Master camera with
up to 6 Slave cameras can form a stitiching configuration.
2. All Master and Slave cameras in a Stitching configuration should be running the same
firmware.
3. The physical positions of cameras should be consistent with the stitching order. It is
recommended you keep a note of all cameras' positions and IP addresses. Static IP
addresses are prefereed.
4. Select a camera on the edge of the line as the Master camera.
5. Recruit the Slave cameras via a web console to the Master camera.
6. When software configuration is done, it is best to have human traffic in and through the
coverage areas of these cameras. If there are no traffic when you configure the Stitching
configuration, you should have someone walking in the overlapped areas.
The peer cameras then automatically calculate the coordinations of the same moving
objects that appear in the overlapped FOVs between them. The walking should persist
for at least 2 minutes.
The drawing above shows the overlapped area with the cameras mounted at the 3
meters height.
