This ability to dynamically adapt its parameters makes the Intelligent Encoder an ideal solution for applications such as video surveillance. When scenes contain little or no motion, the encoder can reduce frame rates or resolutions and reduce bandwidth or storage consumption. When motion is detected within the scene, the built-in analytics can direct the CODEC to increase frame rate, resolutions or compression settings to maintain consistent video quality. The API of the Intelligent Encoder allows privacy regions and regions of interest to be defined in order to focus where analytics are to be applied.
The Intelligent Encoder is capable of performing H.264 and MJPEG compression with simultaneous G.711 audio encode. On S6100 and S6105 devices, the H.264 encoder supports 30fps streams with resolutions up to 1.3 megapixels. At standard definition, D1 resolutions, 75% of the processing capability of S6100 and S6105 devices remains available for third party applications or analytics. The rich API and modular nature of the Intelligent Encoder allow for easy integration of third party applications.
