Questions on animal detection onT54IR-ZE-S3 and no push notification on DMSS app for animals

[cpd5215]

Turn off your 180 for a week. Completely off unplugged.

Did you miss it?
Did it miss any events the other cameras can’t see?

Then maybe. Point is you can’t rely on a PTZ for 100% coverage as it’s often looking a different direction.

Think of them as supplemental to get detail ID, not as dedicated coverage

Good way of looking at it. Thanks.

IVS is very specific, granular. This line, this direction, this schedule, this filter.

VMD is more broad. Does not have specific attributes you can set such as direction, or filters, and uses a common defined trigger box/area
You get what it gives:
Human Detection
Motor Vehicle
Non-Motor Vehicle
*And in some cases Faces (different than 'Human, just face) if your NVR supports it




Each can be toggled on/off, but there is not the level of trigger control you have with IVS


Each has a set of "attributes" which is nice, but does not take the place of direction, defined lines, or filters other than what that rule already does.



The nice thing about VMD is it can work with AI Search and display those things in a nice visual way. It is the more broad overview way to look at activity






*A nice thing about the newer AI NVRs is that you can set for instance, IVS on the camera, and VMD on the NVR, By Recorder (if it has it) Same place under AI/Parameters.
This goes to what I said about each rule created on the NVR has a toggle to be "By camera" or "By Recorder"
I dont see much need for it if you have current AI cameras, and you'll ceate far fewer headaches if you use the Camera GUI as mentioned

**The nice thing about being able to set IVS/VMD by NVR is if you have old dumb nonAI cameras, in many cases you can add AI (IVS. VMD etc) to them by creating a rule "By Recorder" on AI enabled NVRs

Perfect. Thanks for the detailed explanation. It’s much clearer in my head now. Appreciate your help.
