Supported devices include:
- Cameras
- Portals
- Monitoring Points

Camera Configuration:
Associated Devices:
- Automated Association in AI/Both Mode: The Auto Associate pipeline will now be triggered automatically after 3 seconds of a threshold change in the Camera Configuration page or manually when the "Calculate" button is clicked.
- Improved Association Visibility in Video UDC: The View section in Video UDC will now display all cameras by default, including both the primary camera and any associated cameras for a more comprehensive overview.
- Automatic Deletion of Unnecessary Associations:
- If an association is no longer needed, it will be automatically deleted to maintain data accuracy and system efficiency.
- If the confidence score of both the primary and secondary devices exceeds the association threshold:
- The association will be deleted if its type is AI-based to prevent redundant or incorrect connections.
- User Prompt for Pipeline Status in Camera Configuration:
- If a pipeline is triggered and no response is received, a prompt will notify users when they attempt to save the camera configuration, ensuring they are aware of potential issues before proceeding.
- If the user switches to manual mode, the system will:
- Allow saving data without AI-based interference.
- Reset the threshold to the last saved threshold value, ensuring consistency.
Automated Association Removal on System/Building Change:
- If a camera's system or building is changed, existing associations will be automatically cleared to prevent invalid links.
- Backend Process: The system will detect changes in the building or system and delete existing associations accordingly.
Real-Time AI Association Updates:
- Generate AI points based on the last threshold value and display them in the UI.
- Provide real-time updates on AI-based associations as they are processed, improving transparency and feedback for users.
Recorder:
TLS Protocol Support for Redis Connection:
- Users now have the option to configure the TLS protocol for Redis connections in LVSM and BBNVR, enhancing security and encrypted communication.
Recorder (Spiderware) License Configuration for BBNVR:
- Added Recorder (Spiderware) license configuration support for BBNVR, allowing users to manage and validate licensing more efficiently within the system.
Camera Instructions:
- Added dropdown selections for Time of Interest, Behavior of Interest, and Response Fields in the Camera Instructions section. Users can now easily select a schedule for ROI, specify expected behaviors, and choose desired response types, making the configuration process more intuitive and efficient.
Analytics & Statistics - Race Track:
Heat Map Display Update:
- Instead of rendering heat maps using Highcharts, the system now directly displays pre-generated images, improving performance and reducing load times.
Improved AI Insights for Race Track:
- Enhanced AI processing for Race Track analytics, providing more accurate and detailed insights for movement patterns and tracking.
Better UI Handling for Missing Background Images:
- When no background image is available, the system will now display "No content available" for object types.
- The affected section will be greyed out to improve user clarity.
Updated Date Range Filters:
- The date range options have been modified to provide better data segmentation ranging from Last hour, Last 6 hours & Last 24 hours.
