ThermoVisual Motion Detector

Thermal and visual motion/change detector for FLIR ONE infrared thermal camera.

ThermoVisual Motion Detector is the 2017 Q1 FLIR ONE app contest winner Android app. (please see the link https://developer.flir.com/news-and-updates/using-flir-one-for-personal-security-and-more/)

Important:

* You will need to have a FLIR ONE device for this app to run.

* ThermoVisual Motion Detector (TVMD) is compatible with the FLIR ONE Gen 2, FLIR ONE Gen 3 and FLIR ONE Gen 3 Pro devices. For your device compatibility, please visit the link http://flir.com/flirone/support/compatibility/

* You may encounter some problems if you are using a FLIR ONE Gen 2 device with a USB-c adapter.

ThermoVisual Motion Detector is an intelligent, easy to use application that detects thermal and/or visual motion or changes automatically by using FLIR ONE infrared camera. It operates in day & night. When you run ThermoVisual Motion Detector, you can observe any motion and/or changes in your FLIR ONE field of view on your screen. In addition, you can set alarms. Alarms could generate sound, makes phone call where available.

* ThermoVisual Motion Detector automatically detects any motion/change thermal, visual or both and plots them on your device screen.

* ThermoVisual Motion Detector draws motion icon on the screen when a change is detected.

* ThermoVisual Motion Detector plots motion history by circles on the device screen. Therefore, you can have information about the complete route of a target. Besides, you can see motion towards you or away from you.

* The main problem with the motion detection applications is the shaking of the devices during the observation. Shaking devices yield false alarms. ThermoVisual Motion Detector application has specially designed algorithm to minimize this drawback. The app automatically stops motion detection in case of device vibration.

* User can change options for motion sound, motion display or motion history display.

* User can set alarm and alarm period.

* User can optionally save pictures including motion or in case of alarm. User can also visit these pictures any time.

* TVMD displays motion icon in case amount of motion detected exceeds the threshold set by user. The app plays sound with the volume level proportional to the amount of motion detected.

* TVMD raises alarm sound and displays alarm icon in case amount of motion detected exceeds the threshold for a specified time period both set by user. Alarm state goes on for the time interval set by user.

How to use:

1) Fix your device by facing your FLIR ONE camera looking to the area you want to track.

2) Start ThermoVisual Motion Detector application.

3) After countdown detection starts.

Options:

MOTION DETECTION

* Sensor: Three types of change detection; thermal, visual or both.

* Save Picture on Motion: Capture picture in case of motion or not.

* Thermal Threshold: Accuracy adjustment for thermal and/or visual change.

* Visual Threshold: Threshold for intensity difference. Smaller values yield more sensitive detection but may cause noise and excess detection.

* Block size (%): Adjusts spatial accuracy. Smaller values yield more sensitive detection but may cause noise and excess detection.

* Area To Trigger: Spatial minimum total amount of motion area to take care.

ALARM

* Alarm: On/Off.

* Save Picture on Alarm

* Time To Trigger: Motion time period required to generate alarm.

* Alarm Period: Alarm duration.

* Alarm Sound: Enable alarm sound or mute.

* Call Phone on Alarm: Calls selected phone number in case of alarm.

DEVICE

- Motion Rectangles: Draw motion rectangles on the device screen.

- Motion History: Draw motion history bubbles on the device screen.

- Shake Sensitivity: Sensitivity level for device shaking. ThermoVisual Motion Detector stops motion detection in case of device shaking, therefore, prevents false alarms. User can select High, Medium or Low sensitivity.
