database. Easily search for persons and
visually see the associated corresponding
video. Search across the entire enterprise to
find facial matches. Index and capture faces
for faster identification and investigations.

can automatically determine when an access
card is used by an unauthorized person.

VideoEdge Facial Recognition Best Practices
Frontal position – no more than +/15 degrees pan or tilt
Reduce motion with mounted and
stable camera and subjects
Limit faces in the scene. Avoid groups of people or facial imagery in the background
Avoid obstructions
Eye pupil space should be at least 50
pixels resolution from eye to eye and at least
15% of the width of the scene
Ideal Lighting
• Even lighting on the face with no shadows
• Avoid backlighting that results in glares on glasses
• Keep away from direct sunlight
• Avoid top lighting that casts shadows over faces
Ideal Camera Settings
• High quality, low compression video steam
• Use larger sensors (.5” or larger)
• Reduce maximum exposure time to minimize motion blur
• High resolution, fast lenses or a xed focal length lens
• Monochrome cameras provide better light sensitivity since
color information is not used.
Enrollment Images Best Practices
• At least 5 or more images - face should be straight on,
slightly turned left, slightly turned right, slightly tilted up,
slightly tilted down
• Taken at close range (3’ to 5’)
• High resolution (at least 400 pixels on face)
• Neutral facial expression
• If person wears glasses, use mix of images with and
without glasses
