Overview

What detection and tracking does for your site.

Detection and Tracking is the engine underneath everything else in Visrax. It identifies people, vehicles and equipment in each camera view, then follows them as they move — through a doorway, along an aisle, across a yard — so events are described as movement, not just as a frame.

Detection is configured per camera and per zone. You decide which object classes matter in which areas, so a forklift in a loading bay is routine while a forklift in a pedestrian walkway is an event.

Detection answers “what is there?”. Tracking answers “where did it go?”. Visrax needs both to turn footage into something a team can act on.

What it does

Detection and Tracking, piece by piece.

Each part is configured around your cameras, zones and schedules — the same system, set up for the way your site runs.

  1. 01

    People and vehicle detection

    Core object classes cover people, cars, vans, trucks, forklifts and common site equipment, configurable per camera so detection matches the environment.

  2. 02

    Movement paths

    Tracked objects keep their identity across frames, producing a path with direction and dwell time that can be reviewed alongside the clip.

  3. 03

    Area boundaries and lines

    Draw zones and crossing lines directly on the camera view. Entries, exits and crossings become countable, rule-ready events.

  4. 04

    Custom watch rules

    Combine class, zone, direction, time window and duration into rules — for example, a person inside a hazard zone for longer than ten seconds during a shift.

In practice

Situations your team will recognise.

01

A vehicle approaches a controlled gate

The vehicle is detected at the perimeter camera, tracked to the barrier and logged with its direction and dwell time. If it waits beyond the configured limit, a queue alert is raised.

02

A person crosses into a restricted aisle

The crossing line on the aisle camera registers an inward crossing. Because the zone is marked restricted during production hours, an alert is created with the track and clip attached.

03

Following movement across linked cameras

A tracked path from the yard camera continues on the dock camera, giving the reviewer a continuous picture of where equipment travelled and how long it stayed.

Questions

Detection and Tracking questions

Straight answers about how this is configured, what it needs and what it does not do.

01Which objects can Visrax detect?
Standard classes include people, vehicles of several types, forklifts and common equipment, plus safety-related items such as PPE. Classes are enabled per camera to match what matters in each view.
02Does tracking identify individual people?
Tracking follows an object’s movement within a camera view so events can be described as paths. It is configured around zones and behaviour, not around recognising who someone is.
03How are zones defined?
Zones and crossing lines are drawn on the camera view in the configuration tools. They can be adjusted at any time and versioned so changes are auditable.
04What about difficult lighting or weather?
Detection works across a wide range of conditions, and each camera can be tuned individually. During setup we review sample footage from your cameras before rules go live.
