Active deterrence allows the camera to detect and react to objects to deter potential intruders. When the camera detects an object, it can glow solid or flash, emit warning sounds or voice messages (number and selection of deterrent functions may vary depending on the camera model). This function is designed to protect the place that is being monitored, discourage the intruder from further actions and scare him away without the need for security intervention.

INGENIUS PLUS - a new generation of intelligent image analysis based on Deep Learning. The algorithm used allows the camera to recognize the shape of a human, a car and bike/motorcycle, even as small as 1% of the stage. The efficiency of the analysis methods used allows simultaneous classify and monitoring of up to 32 objects of different types.

Image analysis function based on Deep Learning, allows to detect the faces of people in the detection zone. After detecting a face, the camera can trigger an alarm or, if it is connected to a recorder with the face recognition function, it can send data allowing for the identification of the detected face.
 

The mobile application allows remote monitoring of a system based on IP or multi-standard 4000 series recorders, as well as viewing images from 4000 series IP cameras, via a mobile device with Android or iOS. The application allows you to connect to recorders or cameras via P2P using a QR code, without the need for additional network configuration. Basic configuration of the recorder and cameras, as well as PTZ control, is available from the device. The application allows you to control recording, deterrence functions, allows for two-way audio communication, local recording on a mobile device and much more. Additionally, it allows you to receive and display push notifications with information about events.

4000 Series recorders are able to receive a message about the detection of a moving object by a PIR detector built into the front panel of the camera. A passive infrared detector allows us to eliminate false motion detections caused by eg:
- lights of passing cars
- shadow movements
- reflections from shiny surfaces
- leaves / trees movement in the wind
The principle of operation of the PIR detector is based on the detection of heat changes in the detection zone, therefore the alarm is generated only when a human or other object that differs in temperature from the environment appears on the stage.

The camera uses HTML5 standard (programming language) to display the image in the browser.
This allows to configure and display stream from camera not only from Internet Explorer, but in all popular browsers, like Opera, Firefox, Edge or Chrome. Thanks to HTML5, the user can safely and conveniently connect to the camera, the high performance of HTML5 protocol allows to high definition video display without lag and with moderate consumption of computer resources.

The recorders in combination with the cameras of the same series, apart from the configuration of basic parameters such as contrast or brightness, allow for a much more advanced interference with the camera settings. Depending on the functionality of the camera, from the recorder level it is possible, among others:
- changing the network settings of the camera
- stream parameters setting
- setting the zoom and focus in a camera with a motor zoom lens
- enabling and configuring the image analysis function
 

A function that performs the counting of a defined line crossing, distinguishing the direction of a moving object. The function can be used to create statistics of visits to any public facilities.
Application example:
- counting the number of visitors to the selected store depending on days / week

The function allows to trigger a local alarm, send an e-mail, activate the relay, or send a push notification to the mobile application after the object has crossed the previously defined line (maximum 4 lines per one camera).
Application example:
- perimeter protection of the object

The function allows to trigger a local alarm, send an e-mail, control the relay, or send a push notification to the mobile application after violating the limits of the defined detection zone (up to 4 detection zones).
Application example:
- perimeter protection of the object
- protection of strategically important objects

Novus Management System VSS software is an advanced platform for managing video monitoring system. Novus Management System VSS can combine different standards of CCTV: Analog, AHD, IP, and at the same time is a software with a high degree of flexibility, finding its application in both small and large and distributed installations

VCA (Video Content Analysis) features are a collection of techniques and algorithms that analyze and interpret video to detect threats, anomalies, or unwanted activities. VCA algorithms make it possible to detect and identify objects, analyze the movement of objects, including their tracking, but also allow, for example, face or license plate recognition. In thermal imaging cameras, VCA functions allow for early detection of fires.

The VCA in the cameras can operate automatically, without the need for human intervention, which enables a quick response to emergency situations.

The ONVIF standard allows for basic compatibility between devices from different manufacturers and brands. The camera + recorder set supporting the ONVIF standard guarantees that the camera will be found, added, recorded and will transmit information about motion detection.

The video encoding standard, which is the successor to the H.264 standard, which allows to save up to 35% of the bandwidth.

A function that performs the counting of a defined line crossing, distinguishing the direction of a moving object. The function can be used to create statistics of visits to any public facilities.
Application example:
- counting the number of visitors to the selected store depending on days / week

The function allows to trigger a local alarm, send an e-mail, control the relay, or send a push notification to the mobile application after detecting in the observed zone the detection of the object left for a specified time.
Application example:
- leaving luggage at train stations, metro stations
- places with a parking ban

The function allows to trigger a local alarm, send an e-mail, activate the relay, or send a push notification to the mobile application after detecting the disappearance of the object in the designated detection zone.
Application example:
- protection of museum exhibits

The function allows to trigger a local alarm, send an e-mail, control the relay after detecting the face from the observed scene. The function will be used in places where due to high traffic it is not possible to use ordinary motion detection, and we want to register only fragments in which a human appears on the observed scene.
Application example:
- shops
- passage control (gates, tripods)

The function allows to trigger a local alarm, send an e-mail, control the relay, or send a push notification to the mobile application after violating the limits of the defined detection zone (up to 4 detection zones).
Application example:
- perimeter protection of the object
- protection of strategically important objects

The function allows to trigger a local alarm, send an e-mail, activate the relay, or send a push notification to the mobile application after:
- covering the camera
- changing the scene of the camera (physical interference in the assembly)
- changing the focus settings (with cameras manually
adjustable focal length)

The function allows to trigger a local alarm, send an e-mail, activate the relay, or send a push notification to the mobile application after the object has crossed the previously defined line (maximum 4 lines per one camera).
Application example:
- perimeter protection of the object

The Novus AHD DVRs, thanks to the hybrid mode, are able to display, record and receive image analysis from including IP cameras. The combination of analog cameras with IP cameras in one recorder is particularly important in the case of modernization of the existing video monitoring system, as well as its future expansion.

POS (Point of sale) functionality that allows you to receive and display messages sent from fiscal devices of various types, such as: manual readers, automatic barcode scanners, etc. The information is correlated with the image and easy to find in the playback, making it easy to and an effective way, we can verify disputable situations or cashier's mistakes.

AHD recorders working in multistandard mode are able to handle analog cameras with different operating standards. Available standards are AHD, TVI, CVI, are the most common on the market, hence, the recorders will be compatible with most analog cameras from other manufacturers.
