    What is your experience with Sentry?

    All good ideas. In regards to "do not trigger an alert", that is the current behavior when Sentry is activated. We add all motion detection to the clip list and mark clips containing human activity with icons, but we only send alerts for clips that contain human activity. Vehicle detection...

All we need is the following pieces of information: Issue: Describe the issue for example false negative, false positive etc. Sentry stated there was no human activity but there was ( false negative) Sentry stated there was human activity when in fact there was not (false...

    Agreed. Many customers have made a similar request. We plan to make it a high priority on the roadmap and next release. Sam from Sentry

    Vehicle detection....

    In your scenario, I believe the underlying issue is to capture more frames per clip than just one, which we plan to do. When we are able to do so, regardless of car or no car, we would provide more accurate determination of human activity within the clip. We have vehicle detection already...

    Hi All, We are trying to get some small improvements into the product prior to the next release. One small change is sharing statistics about our Sentry alerts. The email and SMS alerts will now have the following message. Feedback welcome! -- Sam from Sentry

    BI states all alerts for a camera will be sent or suppressed by Sentry AI when Sentry is activated for the camera. If re-triggers are checked, then BI will continue to send BI alerts. -- Sam from Sentry

    You may want to reach out to BI support on this one. Are you sure the camera that sent the alert is activated with Sentry? -- Sam from Sentry

    What is your experience with Sentry?

    Right now, if Sentry is checked, all prior triggers that you setup in Blue Iris will first define the motion trigger, so in your case, the zones configuration will first generate the trigger to then send Sentry an image to detect humans. The image sent to Sentry is defined by the MAKE time. We...

    No change to number of frames. We take advantage of past frames to make better decisions on future frames. -- Sam from Sentry

    Apologies. There is an integration issue between BI and Sentry. We created a workaround. All checkboxes should now remain checked! -- Sam from Sentry

    Correct. The screen capture in the SMS is the current image (after round-trip to Sentry for analysis) and not the one 4-5 sec prior triggered by the Maketime which actually got processed by Sentry. Only way to really confirm false positives/negatives is by looking at the first frame of the...

    What is your experience with Sentry?

    With the current implementation, we only take one frame defined by the Maketime. We have received many suggestions such as taking multiple frames, e.g. at Maketime intervals so every 1 sec if the Maketime is 1 sec. Need to work through trade-offs between accuracy and bandwidth before the next...

    Sentry works off the motion detection from BI. So long as the motion sensor is active, Sentry should work. Open a ticket with Sentry if you are still having issues. -- Sam from Sentry

    Sentry Smart Alerts is too expensive for me

    Continuously improving the algorithm. As the AI learns the camera frame, more false alerts associated with trees and bushes should be suppressed.' -- Sam

    You are correct. This is a known issue. Right now the image being sent in the alert is not the image that was processed by Sentry. This will be fixed in the next release. -- Sam from Sentry

    What is your experience with Sentry?

    Great analysis. You have pointed out some of the weaknesses in our 1.0 release. Sentry works off the Maketime setting to determine which frame to analyze (default = 1.0s). You alluded to the problem with vehicles. Your camera picks up on the motion so far in advance of the UPS driver walking...
