 Before creating a video analytics rule on a camera, you must first calibrate the camera. Calibration allows the camera to more accurately classify people and other detected objects. To calibrate the video camera, tap on the video card from your app's home screen. Then tap the setting cog in the top right corner. Tap Recording Rules. Then tap Add New Rule. Tap Video Analytics. Select the camera you would like to calibrate by tapping on its video feed. A warning will appear stating, this calibration will delete any VMD schedules you have previously configured. These will be replaced by the new video analytics rules. Tap OK. The camera will process an update to prepare for video analytics support. This may take a few minutes. Once initial setup is complete, you will see a success message. Tap Close on the bottom right to continue. Once the camera has completed the initial video analytics setup, a message will appear over its video feed prompting you to calibrate the camera. Tap on the video feed to start the calibration process. Read the recommendations before proceeding. You will be asked to take a series of photos from the camera. Make sure to capture your entire body in the photos and move straight back from the camera rather than side to side. Once you are ready to start, tap Continue on the top right corner of the screen. After starting calibration, move into the camera's field of view. Take five photos of yourself at varied distances from the camera by tapping Take Photo underneath the video feed. Once all five photos have been taken, tap Submit on the top right corner. The page may take a moment to load. After calibration is complete, the camera is ready to configure video analytics rules.
