Dahua WizMind Illegal Parking Detection

Issue 5 2022 Surveillance, Transport (Industry), Products & Solutions

As the number of people who can afford vehicles rises over time, this causes a constant surge of vehicles on the roads that drastically exhausts the limited parking spaces in cities, resulting in some parking their car recklessly.

Illegal parking has become a challenge for transport departments and traffic officers, especially in those cities that still issue parking tickets manually due to lack of funding for an adequate parking ticket system. The efficiency of manual parking ticket systems is often subpar, not to mention the inability of on-site personnel to be on duty 24/7.

Current products on the market are also not capable of detecting/tracking a vehicle, preventing these traditional devices from capturing the licence plate of the offending car. Implementing an intelligent solution that can alleviate these issues is of paramount importance to help maintain an orderly city.

The Dahua WizMind Illegal Parking Detection solution is a traffic solution that can effectively solve traffic problems on the road.

Warning sound deterrent

A warning siren is a new feature of WizMind Illegal Parking Detection and will be available in the upcoming camera model SDT5X425-4Z4-FAJG-PV-0832. When a vehicle parks in a no-parking zone, the alarm will be triggered and the siren will sound a warning voice to deter or warn the car’s driver to leave. This warning sound can be customised by the user on the app. There are two high-powered speakers installed on each side of the camera. The independent PTZ enables them to rotate 360° horizontally, which sends audible warnings in different directions.

Wide detection range

This solution simultaneous supports the display of both panoramic and detail views on the screen. Both channels of the dual-PTZ camera are equipped with illegal parking detection with a maximum detection radius of up to 100 m.

In addition, this feature also has two primary modes:

• Linkage mode: The panoramic camera runs illegal parking detection while the detail camera zooms in to capture the vehicle when an illegal parking event occurs.

• Independent mode: Panoramic camera and detail camera run illegal parking detection separately. The detail camera runs a tour plan to cover different scenarios and zooms in to capture the vehicle when an illegal parking event occurs in both the panoramic and detail views.

Multi-scenario deployment

Multiple detection modes are also available based on the nature of the scenario:

• Scenario priority mode: The camera runs illegal parking detection at the current scenario and will only switch to the next scenario if the time allocated by the tour plan has been reached.

• Detection priority mode: While the tour plan has not started, the camera will only switch to the next scenario if all snapshots of the illegally parked vehicles in the current scenario have been taken.

• Group snapshot mode: Before the tour plan begins, the camera will capture a group of snapshots of all vehicles in the current scenario (two pictures by default). When all the snapshots of vehicles have been taken, it will switch to the next scenario. During the tour plan, when the preset time for scenario one is reached, the camera will return to scenario one to capture another set of photos (two images).

Licence plate number and other violation information can be overlaid on the captured images of the camera, serving as evidence in case of an investigation.

The camera is designed to be installed easily with simplified configuration steps. This greatly reduces labour costs and significantly improves efficiency.
