NEW SOFTWARE RELEASE ==================== Application: AXIS Video Motion Detection 3 Release date: February 28, 2015 Release type: Production Software version: 3.1.0 File name: AXIS_Video_Motion_Detection_3.eap Preceding Release: 3.0.1 Requirements AXIS Media Control 7.0.8.3 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contact Information =================== Please contact Axis Communications for product information, updates and support at http://www.axis.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Compatible products =================== See complete list of compatible products at www.axis.com New Features in 3.1 since 3.01 ============================== F01: AXIS Media Control download: If required, the latest AXIS Media Control version is downloaded and installed automatically when configuring the application. Automatic download and installation requires an Internet connection. For setups without Internet connection, there is also an installation package that includes AXIS Video Motion Detection 3 and the latest AXIS Media Control version. Corrections in 3.1 since 3.01 ============================= CO1: Problem with small object filter incorrect for 90/270 degree rotations now solved: If the image was rotated 90 or 270 degrees, the small object filter width and height were interchanged. CO2: Problem with small object height could be reset when loading configuration page is solved: When loading the configuration page, the small object filter height was sometimes reset to its default value. CO3: Visual Confirmation for 8 fps cameras now supported: Cameras that that can only use max 8 fps now also supports Visual Confirmation. CO4: Improved minimum size handling Small and Swaying object filter: The two filters, small and swaying objects, are easier to configure for small sizes. Since the cursor doesn't change position if the user changes to smaller value than the supported range. CO5: Save displays include and exclude areas: When the application is restarted after saving, the include and exclude areas are displayed on the configuration page. Features from previous releases =============================== F01: Swaying objects: The swaying object filter is used to avoid detecting objects that only move a short distance, for example moving trees, flags and their shadows. F02: Short-lived objects: The short-lived object filter is used to avoid detecting objects that only appear for a short period of time, such as light beams from a passing car and quickly moving shadows. The number of seconds is the minimum time that must pass before the object is detected. F03: Small objects: The small object filter is used to avoid detecting objects that are too small. For example, if only moving cars should be detected, the small object filter can be used to avoid detecting people and animals. Note: The filters will be applied to all objects in the image, not only to the ones at the location of the visual outline. F04: Visual Confirmation: Visual confirmation is used to validate that the settings are correct, that is, that all objects that should be detected are detected. When enabled, all moving objects found by AXIS Video Motion Detection 3 will be encircled and followed by polygons.
