Face Recognition
Face recognition is used in conjunction with face detection to locate and determine facial
similarities detected by the system. Images are registered in a face library, by the user, and
accessed via a face recognition smart search tool that is built into the NVR.
Note: A USB flash drive with applicable facial images (in jpeg format) should be inserted into
a USB port on the NVR if you are importing images locally. Make sure the Face Detection option
is enabled in the Smart Plan menu before configuring any face detection settings.
Below is a screenshot of the Face Recognition menu.
