Set Person Size Estimates

...

In the example shown to the right, the nearest person is the person standing at the back of the queue. However, your queue may be different depending on the position of the Queue Line camera.

...

Info

Ensure that the Nearest Person and Farthest Person boxes are drawn accurately (in both position and size) on the image. These parameters calibrate the camera’s perspective on the scene. If they are incorrect, the plug-in will not be able to accurately measure the size of the queue. Refer below diagram for more information.

Fine Tuning Plug-In Performance With Optional Settings

The following settings in the Parameters tab of the Edit Settings dialog should only be modified from their defaults if Queue Line results are unsatisfactory.

This setting controls how the video resolution is down sampled before analyzing for Queue events. When left at 0 (default), the plug-in will use the full resolution of the camera, which is highly CPU intensive. Installations running many Queue Line cameras (or other analytics) at the same time may see improved performance by
increasing the Downs ample Factor of each Queue Line camera.
