How do I see AI predictions in the motion capture footage

xev

I am getting a lot of false positives, I have the trigger set to human 100, motion sensitivity down to 30, and I still get constant triggers from curtains blowing in the breeze. I have "Save AI data for future search", and when I search for humans I get an image, but no data on what the AI detected. Is there any way to see why the AI classified this as human?

Same question here.

Firstly, install the latest beta version of SecuritySpy (currently 6.10b7). This has a new AI-powered motion detector, which is much more accurate than before. It has been trained to ignore extraneous movement like this. If you are using an Apple Silicon Mac, it will be enabled automatically, but if you are using an Intel Mac, you will have to specifically enable it for this camera, under Settings > Cameras > Triggers > Advanced Options.

However, constant movement like this is challenging for even the best motion detection algorithm, and it will be a source of false triggers unless you take further action, which will involve one or both of the following

1. Ideally, change the camera's view or move or adjust the curtain so that the curtain does not appear in the camera's view at all.
2. If any part of the curtain appears in the camera's view, make sure it's completely masked off by drawing a motion mask under Settings > Cameras > Triggers (so that the entire curtain area appears in green).

Since you want to detect humans only, make sure that the "Human" checkbox is definitely enabled for both Motion Capture and Actions in the camera's trigger settings. This should remove virtually all false positives (especially with the threshold turned up). If you are still getting false-positive even with this enabled, then you have bad luck in that there's something in this view that looks like a human to the AI. It could actually be the curtain, which looks like clothing. Again, adjusting the camera/curtain and/or masking it out will help here.
