The AXIS Q1615 Mk III fixed box camera with Q-line functionality and exceptional video quality includes an innovative dual chipset that is the basis for remarkably granular object classification.

AXIS Object Analytics is preinstalled and the camera’s dual chipset facilitates powerful artificial intelligence with deep learning, allowing the analytics to distinguish between bikes, cars, buses, trucks, and so on, so you can decide which vehicles you want to detect and when alarms are triggered, and notifications are sent to security personnel.

Basing notifications on recognizing the difference between different kinds of vehicles results in fewer false alarms, so your operators will waste less time responding unnecessarily and they’ll be able to handle more cameras.

Driven by artificial intelligence and deep learning, video intelligence software detects and extracts objects in video, identifies each object based on trained Deep Neural Networks, and then classifies each object to enable intelligent video analysis, including search and filtering, alerting, and data aggregation and visualization.

By integrating BriefCam analytics on the edge, along with post-processing and management capabilities, Axis deep learning cameras AXIS P3255 and AXIS Q1615 Mk III users will experience up to six times faster real-time alerting, a 5-10x reduction in bandwidth, and up to 55% fewer real-time GPU processing servers for real-time processing.

This enables greater flexibility and cost efficiency for large-scale or distributed video analytics deployments.
