Stabilize a shaky image with electronic image stabilization (EIS)
Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) can be used in environments where the product is mounted in an exposed location and subject to
vibrations, for example, wind or passing traffic.
EIS makes the image smoother, steadier and less blurry. It also reduces the file size of the compressed image and lowers the
bitrate of the video stream.
Note
The image is cropped slightly when EIS is enabled, lowering the maximum resolution.
1. Go to Video > Installation > Image correction.
2. Turn on Electronic image stabilization (EIS).
Compensate for barrel distortion
Barrel distortion is a phenomenon where straight lines appear increasingly bent closer to the edges of the frame. A wide field of view
often creates barrel distortion in an image. Barrel distortion correction compensates for this distortion.
Note
Barrel distortion correction affects the image resolution and field of view.
1. Go to Video > Installation > Image correction.
2. Turn on Barrel distortion correction (BDC).
3. Use the slider to improve the image.
Monitor long and narrow areas
Use corridor format to better utilize the full field of view in a long and narrow area, for example a staircase, hallway, road, or tunnel.
and in Video format, select MJPEG.
