  • It will provide consistent transmission of video and prevent loss of archive while the server is disconnected.
  • In the settings, you specify the area where the contents of the shelf will be located
  • The algorithm calculates and stores the quantity of the special dots in the area. The number of dots represents the complete fullness of the shelf.
  • After the intervals specified by you (15-60 sec) the module checks the shelves and determines the percentage of their fullness with goods
  • If the module detects a shelf the fullness of which is lower than the preset level, it sends a corresponding notification
Note: when the module detects the presence of people in the area (it is determined by the presence of motion), it does not perform frame processing until the movement has stopped.
  • specify and set up the areas to monitor for the abandoned objects
  • specify the duration of the object’s permanence in the specified zone before an alarm will sound
When the control event is detected, you receive an immediate notification to the monitor, phone or e-mail.
  • prevent a possible terrorist attack
  • promptly inform people in the danger zone for their subsequent evacuation and rescue
  • identify the person who left the object on the territory and organize search for him or her without delay.
  • specify areas of the frame in which monitoring will be performed

If one of the levels is exceeded, you receive an immediate notification to the monitor, phone or email.

You can plot graphs showing the number of people in a given area on the timeline.

You can obtain an expanded image and control it by using joystick and keyboard:

  • in the double panorama mode – the panorama is divided into two parts, 180° each
  • in the 4×90 mode –  the image is divided into four cells, 90° each
  • in the virtual PTZ mode, which simulates PTZ camera operation
  • replace several conventional cameras indoors with a single Fisheye-camera with wide functionality
  • view several controlled areas simultaneously using a single camera
  • create reports and graphs broken down by hours, days, months, years based on the data from various cameras

  • evaluate the efficiency of your personnel when working with visitor
  • see all the faces which got into the field of vision of the camera
  • receive automatic notifications upon detection of faces to the monitor, phone or e-mail
  • generate reports about the persons whose presence was detected, with the indication of the detection time
  • save detected faces in JPG format

You do not need to look at video surveillance monitors 24 hours a day. Thru the use of the Face Detection module, you can find a person by the face that got into the field of view of the camera installed in an off-limits zone and/or during the time when it is prohibited to be in a zone.

  • Cross-line Detector that also detects motion direction

To make it easier to arrange CCTV on-site and to quickly choose the required camera from the connected devices, you can upload a map of the protected premises into the system. The electronic map displays camera icons indicating the observation angle and a preview. The Switch icon can be used to switch among floor maps promptly.

User access to all functions and hot keys of the server operating system is restricted to minimize the risk of invasion. You can create an unlimited number of users and set up individual access to cameras, microphones, and system functions for any user.

  • When connecting an additional monitor, you can configure the full-screen display of all cameras in the cyclical mode. If there are lots of cameras, this function makes it possible to arrange a convenient Observer, where the whole screen can be viewed without having to buy extra monitors.
  • Thanks to this tool, an operator can mark a comment in the frame. Tags are set both in real time and in the archive. Created events can be filtered by name or comment. This option saves operator’s time and improves search efficiency.
  • Create several zones in a frame, configure sensitivity, and determine response actions for every controlled zone. Depending on the settings, detection or absence of movement in the frame can trigger an automatic response: record to the archive, send a text message or e-mail notification, save the frame on the server or FTP storage, notify the operator with an audio signal, display a camera image on the alarm monitor, make a log entry, run an external app, switch to PTZ camera pre-sets or launch cruise, change camera or microphone settings.
  • Settings for sending warning messages as text, e-mail, or audio notifications when emergencies occur like detection or absence of movement in specific zones, lost or restored camera signal, microphone sound level that exceeds the settings, archive recording errors, or external events
  • This option allows you to sync with any software that can send HTTP requests. When a specific event occurs in an external app, the CCTV system will launch one or several of 14 response options. In addition, when a specific event occurs in the CCTV system, Line can display the event on an external app.
  • This function allows using several remote Line servers at once. The process is synchronized and looks like viewing a server with a combined number of cameras.
  • The Line web client provides the option to view CCTV cameras from any browser on any operating system. You can connect it to a server without a real IP address or additional port translation settings. Up to 16 cameras can be viewed simultaneously on the web server in recorded or real-time mode. You can listen to the sound from the microphone and control your PTZ devices.
  • Search the archive by object size. The system analyses the archive records and shows all frames that contain an object of a certain size. You can determine the size of objects in the motion detector settings using the Outline option.
  • Analysis of archive records for detecting motion in a specific area. When this function is enabled, the system will only show those frames where motion was detected..
  • Search for objects of a certain colour in the archive zone. A palette of 10 primary colors is used.
  • Configuring the level of intrusion of an object in the detection zone makes it possible to more finely tune the motion detector. You can set the percentage for recording the intrusion of a moving object.
    0% – the object must touch the detection zone. 50% – the object must enter the detection zone at least half-way in order for the motion detector to work.
    75% – at least 75% of the object must be in the zone.
    100% – the object must enter the detection zone completely for the motion detector to work.
  • Individual settings for each audio channel in the system. Should the volume level exceed the limits set by the user, the system can start recording a video to the archive, send a text message or e-mail notification, save the frame to the server or FTP storage, notify the operator with an audio signal or display the camera image on the alarm monitor, make a log entry, run an external app, switch between PTZ camera pre-sets or start the cruise, or change camera or microphone settings.
  • Cruise is a mechanism used to switch between PTZ camera pre-sets automatically. The switch is performed at a set interval based on a list of user-created pre-sets. The number of cruises that can be created is unlimited.
  • Multi server playback allows you to simultaneously work with multiple servers running Line, independent of their physical location. A multi server setup is commonly used by organizations with many offices in different locations, allowing all servers to be monitored from a single location.
  • With Line, you can breakdown selected video footage to view the individual frames, which can then be saved to disk. This feature is capable of breaking down a single second of surveillance footage into as many as 60 frames.
