2. Product Overview

2.1 System Introduction

AV-1364 SDI Auto-Tracking Camera is a dedicated smart camera solution in educational information industry.
It can be used alone, or be easily integrated into any smart-room system according to user settings. AV-1364
features a built-in high-speed processor and advanced image processing and analysis algorithms, to detect and track
target accurately and quickly. It adopts advanced ISP processing technique and algorithms, providing vivid images
with balanced brightness, distinct layering, high definition and color reduction. H.264/H.265 encoding supported. It
makes video fluent and clear even under less-than-ideal bandwidth conditions. AV-1364 offers flexible functions,
autonomous performance, simple use and minimum maintenance.

• Network control interface: control commands will be transmitted via network. It is suitable for

all-scenario user settings;

• Recognition algorithm unrelated to location: status detection and recognition of teachers and students

adopt unique smart partitioning algorithm to ensure that the result of detection and recognition is unrelated to
location;

• 2-way installation: with wall-mount or ceiling-mount, it supports both normal and upside-down

installation;

• All-in-one design: the built-in panoramic lens allows perfect combination of panoramic view and

close-up;

• Advanced tracking algorithm: it applies advanced human detection algorithms, image processing and

analytical algorithms for locking and tracking the target (intelligent image recognition library, scene adaptive
algorithm) to achievee stable, fast and accurate target tracking results;

• High immunity from interference: more diversified and flexible recognition shield settings ensure that

once tracking target is locked, it will not be affected by other moving objects or projector changes;

• Stable tracking: adjustable movement recognition sensitivity. Can be adjusted so that slight movement of

the target such as hand movement will not cause wrong operation of the camera;

• Self-adaptive: the tracking camera zooms according to the distance to target so that the visual image

maintains the proper size and scale;

• Super wide dynamic exposure: it prevents the tracking target dimming under strong light sources such as

the projector.

4.2 System Configuration

4.2.1 Flowchart of the process

Podium Position: The “Podium Position” is set to the default start point of tracking. Adjust zoom and focus so that

when the teacher is standing at the podium, he/she appear the appropriate size and height in the close-up image. Set
the close-up position to be the “Podium Position”. After the camera is powered on, it will automatically turn to the

“Podium Position” and start tracking. When the target is lost, the user can set the camera to go back to the “Podium
Position” (see "Basic Parameter Settings"). Automatic zoom function of the camera also takes the “Podium

Position” as a reference. Please be sure to carefully set the “Podium Position”. The “Podium Position" is recognized
as "Preset 1" by the camera.

Panorama Position: The “Panorama Position” is set to the default panoramic preset point. It can also be modified
and set to any other preset location. When the target is lost, the user can set the camera to go back to the “Panorama
Position” (see "Basic Parameter Settings"). The “Panorama Position" is recognized as "Preset 0" by the camera.

4.2.3 Parameter Setup

1) Close-up/ Tracking view configuration (the left half of the interface)

In the box indicated by the arrow (see the interface below), there are 4 buttons which are used to set preset
positions for both close-up and panoramic view.
Click 【View Platform/Panoramic Position】, then adjust 【↑↓← →】 position and zoom so that the target can
be best capture. Click 【Save Platform/Panoramic Position】to save settings.

Note: Platform refers to the close-up view.

Platform preset: Adjust 【↑↓← →】 and zoom 【+ -】of the tracking camera to get the desired visual result of
camera image (we suggest that the teacher stand in the middle of podium, if any). Click 【Save Platform Position】.
Once the auto-tracking mode starts, the size of teacher in Platform preset is used as a reference. When tracking
target lost in sight, the close-up image will go back to Platform preset position.

Panoramic preset: Adjust 【↑↓← →】 and zoom 【+ -】again to capture as much as a panoramic view of the
classroom (or any position). When tracking target lost in sight, the close-up image will go back to Panoramic preset
position.

Preset for blackboard-writing: for future use.

2) Set Panoramic Area
Platform area: It is the area tracked once close-up lens start up tracking. It is blackboard area on
platform generally so as to ensure that when teacher is on platform his upper body is displayed
within setting area, and it will not exceed lower margin of platform area when students in the first
row sit down. See Figure 5.2-3.

23

Tracking area: Tracking area means scope of tracking teacher. When the tracking target goes
out of the tracking area, it will be considered tracking target losing. The tracking area can be
set into polygon according to certain environment conditions, or set student area outside of
tracking area. See Figure 5.2-4:

Mask area: Mask area is usually the area which may impact result of teacher tracking, such
as places which may have dynamic changes such as TV, projector, doors and windows. See
Figure 5.2-5:

24

3. Set tracking parameters
Target lost: when target loses, the close-up lens will return to designated preset position. This
preset position can be panoramic preset, platform preset or maintain original position.

Tracking settings:

Auto zoom: In open mode (checked), during tracking, the camera will zoom automatically
according to target distance; in off mode (unchecked), during teacher tracking, zoom remains
the value set during platform preset.
V-move: In open mode (checked) and during teacher tracking, the camera will adjust its angle
of elevation according to height of tracking target; in off mode (unchecked) and during
teacher tracking, angle of elevation remains the value set during platform preset. If a teacher
will not step down platform in class, we suggest turning off auto zoom and v-move.

25

Advance parameters:

Action sensitivity: In teacher tracking mode, it is the action range required to trigger tracking
camera when the tracking target changes from stationary state to motion state. The higher the
action sensitivity, the smaller movement of tracking target that will trigger camera’s tracking
motion.
H-speed: It means speed of tracking camera for horizontal tracking.
V-speed: It means speed of tracking camera for vertical tracking.
Zoom range: The bigger the range, the higher zoom extent required for camera when tracking
target steps down platform.
Lost timeout: It means time required (5s by default) for tracking camera to perform target lost
action when target is lost (optional: return to panorama preset, platform preset, or remain
original position).
Down platform sensitivity: It is used for determining if teacher steps down platform. The
lower the sensitivity, the longer teacher’s distance to blackboard it required to trigger teacher
down platform action.

26

For settings of action code, refer to “7 Description of connecting recording and broadcasting
host”.

After setting, click Save Parameter. It allows to entering advance parameter settings column to
change configuration value to obtain the best result subject to specific scenes and customer
demand.

2. Use soft cloth or tissue to clean the camera (lens cleaning not recommended).

3. Use the soft dry cloth to clean the lens. If the camera is very dirty, clean it with diluted neuter detergent. Do not
use any type of solvents, which may damage the surface.

6.2 Troubleshooting

1) No Video Output
a. check whether the camera power supply is connected, make sure the voltage is normal, or whether the power
indicator is on.
b. whether the machine could do self-check upon starting.
c. check whether the bottom of the DIP switch is set to the normal operating mode (see Table 1.2 and Table 1.3).
d. check whether the video output cable is connected correctly, and the video display is normal.

2) No Image Sometimes
Check whether the video output cable is connected correctly, and the video display is normal under the normal
operating mode.

3) Image Dithering When Zoom-in/out
a. check whether the camera’s installation position is solid.
b. check whether there is a shaking machine or object near the camera.

4) Remote Control Cannot Work
a. check whether control address is set to 1 (if the machine is set to factory default settings, remote control address
needs to be set back to 1).
b. check whether the battery is installed in the remote control, and whether the battery power is high enough.
c. check whether the camera is under the normal working/operating mode (see Table 1.2 and Table 1.3).
d. check whether the menu is closed. Camera control through remote control is only available after exiting the
menu. If video is output from LAN, the menu will not show. After 30 sec, camera can be controlled by remote
control.

5) Serial Port Does Not Work

a. check whether the camera serial protocol, baud rate, and address are consistent.
b. check whether the control cable is connected properly.
c. check whether the camera working mode is set to the normal operating mode (see Table 1.2 and Table 1.3).

6) Web Pages Cannot Log In
a. check whether the camera is displaying normally.
b. check whether the network cable is connected properly (Ethernet port yellow light flashing indicates normal
network cable connection).
c. check whether the proper segment is added to the computer, and is consistent with the IP address of the camera.
d. click "Start" and then "Run". Type in “cmd” and click "OK" to turn on a DOS command window. Enter ping

192.168.5.163., and press Enter to see whether a message shows as follows: Description network connection is
normal.
