Boat Detection is a recent new feature per the "Network Camera Web 5.0 Operations Manual"

LOL that I was looking at the manuals associated with the T54-PRO-ZE at this link ... and there's a recent new feature of Boat Detection! ;-)

Per the top of the document Revision History - V1.2.5 - Added Boat Detection - August/2025

And there are several pages starting at page 113 that is titled 8.1 Setting Boat Detection Target detection is performed on water surface areas such as rivers and lakes, so that users can monitor cargo ships, sand dredging ships and other ship targets in a timely manner

So I got really excited to see if a "ship" would sail/motor on the road past my house ... but alas, I didn't see this as an option in my T54-PRO-ZE using the latest firmware - maybe the next release! ;-)

Only if a 73 Pontiac Grand Safari Wagon goes by your camera. That thing was a Boat ....

LOL that since you mentioned old cars ... how about this "boat" that actually DOES show up on camera from time-to-time ... ;-)
I'm the second owner of this 1972 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Convertible and have had it for 43+ years.





P.S. Don't get me started trying to explain my Big Green Buddy ... especially since I have two of them ...

Yes, nice car. Dad had a 71, 455 2BBL 2 door Delta 88. The Olds station wagon basically used the same front sheetmetal.

LOL small world ... and yea, those genre of cars had some similar looks, especially on the front and the taillights.
Mine only has the 350 engine ... plenty fast as the ride is like driving a plush sofa down the road.

350 is plenty strong, and probably less likely to develop a rod knock, oil consumption, etc.
