MxActivitySensor Unique Motion Detection in the camera The MxActivitySensor is an activity-controlled, software-based image analysis function for detecting movement of people and objects in a monitored area (full image or section). Unlike existing video motion sensors, which detect all events in the defined motion windows, the MxActivitySensor is very easy to configure and delivers reliable results, even in applications with large amounts of external interference. For example, the camera now distinguishes between movements of vehicles, people or objects that trigger an alarm and movements that are not relevant for alarms, such as shadows, changes in illumination, trees swaying in the wind or rain directly at the lens. What Is Detected? The sensor detects objects or people that cross the defined monitored area or move toward or away from the camera. The MxActivitySensor is available  free of charge via a simple firmware update for current MOBOTIX cameras (activation in Web browser).
