What?s In A Video Analytic
If we ask Wikipedia about video analytics we get redirected to video content analysis (VCA) and information about the capability of automatically analyzing video to detect and determine temporal and spatial events.
Many different functionalities can be implemented in VCA. Video Motion Detection is one of the simpler forms where motion is detected with regard to a fixed background scene. More advanced functionalities include video tracking and egomotion estimation. Now, I don?t really know what egomotion is but I do understand video tracking.
Drowning In Video Data? How The Security Industry Must Innovate To Provide Real Value
Investment in video surveillance technology continues to increase as technology improves and security equipment becomes more affordable.

While there?s no doubt that the systems can provide a comprehensive video archive, the real challenge is whether these systems allow security and law enforcement personnel to respond quickly and effectively when security breaches occur. In large enterprise systems, entrenched video collection methods have limited effectiveness in real-time situations.
