EE AN016 Optimizing Motion Tracking in the Eagle Eye Cloud VMS

Click the banner to view the full Application Note.

This Application Note is meant for any user of the Eagle Eye Cloud VMS that has the “Edit Motion

Areas and Analytics” permission or higher and is looking to better understand the setup, capabilities,

and implications of this configuration.

The Eagle Eye Cloud VMS tracks motion in a camera feed to allow for alerts and video recording to

start/stop. This application note shows how to set up motion areas and provides some simple

troubleshooting steps for common issues.

In the Eagle Eye Cloud VMS motion is defined as when one frame of camera video is different from

the previous frame. When a bridge detects this difference, the recording begins (depending on motion

settings in the Cloud VMS).
