4.5 Immediate environment of the camera
The environment should be free from field of view disturbing elements, such as:
– Dust and humidity
– High temperature
– Steam
– Interfering influences, e.g. high radiation
– Vibrations
4.5.1 Illumination and brightness
AVIOTEC IP starlight 8000 needs a minimum illumination of 7 lx. Generally, a well illuminated
monitoring area is advantageous.
Smoke plume and backlight Smoke plume without backlight
Backlight should be avoided. The visibility of a smoke plume or flames decreases rapidly with
increasing backlight. Try to minimize the amount of very bright background lights in your
specific environment as far as it is meaningful and possible.
Dynamic range
The dynamic range is the ratio between the darkest spot compared to the lightest spot in the
application. Use a luxmeter to determine the brightness in your application. The dynamic
range in the camera image / the detection area must be equal or less than factor 5.
4.5.2 Privacy protection
Notice!
There is no fire detection in privacy defined masks created in the Intelligent Video Analytics.
To protect privacy, individual masks on the video screen can be defined to cover up areas in
which privacy has to be guaranteed. Privacy defined masks remain stored after a reset of the
camera, even after upgrading to a new firmware.
