Documentation for C-Werk 2.0.

The C-Werk software package includes integrated analytics for multiple video cameras.

If C-Werk supports built-in analytics for a device, then detectors can be created (see Creating detection tools).

Note

Some devices may have issues with interdependent embedded analytics. If there is already a relevant detection tool in C-Werk, you can add another one, but it will not work.

Embedded Temperature Detection Tool

C-Werk supports selected models of thermal cameras with an embedded temperature detection tool. This detection tool recognizes human faces on video, and performs temperature measurement on them. 

Normally, you should set up a detection tool as follows:

  1. Create a detection tool (see Creating detection tools).
  2. Using the camera manufacturer's documentation, set up the detection tool in the C-Werk VMS. 

    Attention!

    As a rule, a camera requires specifying the temperature threshold, upon reaching which the detection tool would trigger an alarm.

  3. If required, set up macros to perform pre-defined actions upon triggering the detector (see Configuring macros and counters).

Some cameras are capable to display a bounding box over the facial image along with corresponding temperature readings. If this option is available, it can be activated via the web interface of a particular camera.

Obtaining metadata

C-Werk is also able to obtain metadata directly from certain video cameras. For example, metadata can be received from a Bosch IVA system.

To receive metadata from a Bosch IVA, you need to create an IVA object and select Yes in the Record objects tracking list.

ANPR

The VMS can process ANPR data from some cameras' on-board analytics.

Note

Please contact technical support for a list of cameras with this feature.

Generally, when configuring the embedded analytics you must follow official documentation for the corresponding video camera or parameter description in the C-Werk interface.

Motion Mask

If the camera supports Motion Mask, then when you configure VMD, it will be displayed in the preview window.

If there is motion, but it does not exceed the threshold value (because of the detection sensitivity), the mask cells are colored green. If motion triggers VMD, the cells turn red.
