Analytics

One of the problems experienced when building up complex video surveillance systems, where alongside with the archive record TRASSIR detects various objects (people, faces, etc.), and analyzes their behavior, is the lack of the server computing resources. TRASSIR lets move a significant part of the computing resources which are necessary for detectors and videoanalytics plugins operation to Analytics server.

Analytics Server - is a server with TRASSIR OS installed, which supports offload-analytics, based on neural networks. Servers where NeuroStation or QuattroStation version of TRASSIR OS is installed can be used as analytics servers. They use CPU and GPU resources for calculations.

You can enable or disable GPU by clicking the video card name in the GPU Stats table.

The Prefer capability list defines for which detectors and videoanalytics plugins the selected GPU will be used. The amount of the simultaneously operating detectors depends on the GPU capacity. The higher the capacity is, the more detectors can be simultaneous enabled.

In addition, on the Analytics tab you can find the information on the resources used by analytics server.

GPU Stats shows the GPU resource load.

Detector Stats shows the list of local and remote channels on which detectors and modules, consuming the analytics server resources, are enabled. Remote user addresses are also displayed.

Important

Specific features of analytics server settings:

  • One can connect to an analytics server the same way as to a regular TRASSIR server.

  • Remote analytics should be enabled in the user interface settings, from which the camera servers will be connected to analytics server.

  • Some modules require the specific licenses on the analytics server to operate properly. You can find more information in a particular module description.
