Object tracking

by Mark Rowe

Digifort UK’s video management software (VMS) and multi-analytics platform has Object Link.

That’s a feature allowing CCTV system users to intuitively track people and objects from camera to camera, around a site. Arrows or button icons are placed within a camera’s field of view, pointing in the direction a person or object exits the camera’s view. The user clicks the icon to switch to the next, logical camera, thus following the person or object, such as a vehicle, in real time. This feature also works in play-back mode, retrieving footage of an event sequence across multiple cameras, with the option to export it for evidence. It is a standard feature within the VMS platform, so has no extra cost.

Nick Bowden, MD of Digifort UK, said: “Object Link adds management and surveil-lance efficiency to CCTV systems of all sizes. It helps users navigate a CCTV system, tracking people or objects seamlessly, even if they are unfamiliar with the site. Object Link is often configured to step to the next logical camera for tracking, however multi-ple camera views, video analytics views, LPR views, multi-screen layouts, maps, and web pages can all be selected instead, along with the automatic triggering of Digifort’s comprehensive list of post alarm and event actions.

“Object Link comes with a comprehensive library of icons and includes the ability to use motion zone triggers to select the next camera or action. A real-world example of this would be to unlock a door automatically when a person crosses a trigger zone to exit. The options for using this feature are unlimited.”
