Configuring Voice Tracking mode from the web interface

Last Updated : Sep 05, 2024 |
Prolog information
From the web interface, select and configure Voice Tracking mode to track a person that is currently speaking. The camera uses the audio data from the two front built-in microphones and matches it to the video image to follow the speaker.
You can select the start position for voice tracking. When no one is talking, the camera freezes at the last tracked frame area.
The web interface automatically saves the AI tracking configuration as you change the settings.
Before you begin
For the best experience when using Voice Tracking mode, ensure you have mounted the camera at the eye level of call participants and that all speakers and audio sources are located in front of the camera.

  2. For the Track setting, select Off.
  3. From the Mode list, select Voice Tracking.
  4. Scroll up to the top of the side pane and click Tracking.
    STEP RESULT:

  5. Click the Voice Tracking tab.
  6. From the Tracking Start Position list, select one of the following options:
    • home: To start tracking from the Home position.
      The Home position is the center of the video frame when all PTZ values are set to 0.
    • A preset number: To start tracking from a preset PTZ position.
  7. Use the Target Retention Time slider to determine the time the camera takes to move to the start position after the speaker leaves the camera view.
