How to automatically zoom in on a specific area with gatekeeper
This example explains how to use the gatekeeper functionality to make the camera zoom in automatically on the license plate of a
car that passes through a gate. When the car has passed, the camera zooms out to the home position.
Create a motion detection profile:
1. Go to Settings > Apps and open AXIS Video Motion Detection.
2. Create a profile that covers the entrance of the gate and then save the profile.
Create the preset positions:
3. Go to Settings > PTZ > Preset positions.
4. Create the home position that includes the entrance of the gate.
5. Create the zoomed-in preset position so that it covers the area in the image where you assume that the license plate
will appear.
Create an action rule:
6. Go to Settings > System > Events and add an action rule.
7. Name the action rule Gatekeeper.
8. From the trigger list, select Applications and then select the previously created motion detection profile.
9. From the action list, select the previously created preset position.
