Metrici Thermal Analyzer engine

Distributed thermal temperature-measurement engine

Features
Architecture
Distributed detection and recognition, free-flow or triggered
Number of recognized faces in each image
Unlimited (the width of each face should be more than 4% of the width of the image)
Individual temperature measurement for each face
Yes
Working mode
Single or dual view (visual + thermal, or thermal + thermal)
Thermal sensor selection
Yes (left, right or both)
Recognition on thermal image
Yes (it should be used because it cannot be fooled by a printed face)
Recognition on visible image
Yes (the parallax error should be corrected at installation time)
Face bounding box reduction
Yes (up to 90%)
Number of thermal algorithms
4 (average temperature, average of the hottest 10% pixels, average of the hottest 1% pixels, hottest pixel)
Number of detection zones
Unlimited
Alarm temperatures range
Yes (min and max can be defined)
Signaling device
Yes (the ON URL, the OFF URL, and the delay can be defined individually)
Companion image
Yes (from another camera or from the same camera using the JPEG image driver)
Temperature calibration
Yes (static or by using a black body)
Type of objects recognized
Human heads and human bodies (the neural network can be trained to recognize other types of objects, like industrial parts or animals)
System requirements
OS
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS MATE, Linux CentOS 7 (64-bit)
CPU

System memory
512 MB for each connected camera, but no less than 4 GB/server
GPU memory
At least 256 MB available for each connected camera
Storage
Up to 512 KB for each thermal event stored in the buffer, depending on the camera resolution and image compression
Cameras/server
Up to 256 connected cameras on each server; unlimited number of servers
Camera type
IP; MxPEG video stream; HTTP transport protocol
