Overview about AI detection features on EZVIZ products

EZVIZ engages responsibly and actively in building a safer, better IoT space. 

While developing and applying new technologies to enhance product performance and elevate user experience, EZVIZ continues improving and progressing beyond its requirements for safety and reliability.

Some EZVIZ security cameras and video doorbells are embedded with local AI chips to provide locally processed, secure and smart detection capabilities. The embedded AI chip operates fully locally on the hardware instead of in the cloud, which enables users to control and manage the operation of AI to the greatest extent.

Here is a quick guide to help users understand the AI Features in EZVIZ products and how users can control and manage these Features.

The AI Features in EZVIZ products

Currently, the AI features in EZVIZ products are used for detection, which include Human Shape Detection, Vehicle Shape Detection, Pet Detection, Abnormal Sound Sensing (sudden noise level change), and Waving-hand Recognition & Control.

Human Shape Detection: The local AI chip will help the camera detect human-shape-alike objects in its viewing angle, which may be a moving rectangular object within a height of 1.5 to 2 meters that is no further than 10 to 15 meters away from the camera.

Vehicle Shape Detection: The local AI chip will help the camera detect car-like moving objects that match general car sizes and shapes, at a distance of no further than 15 meters away from the camera.

Pet Detection: The local AI chip will help the camera detect pet-like moving objects in its viewing angle at a distance of 3 to 5 meters (Currently this feature mainly works for cats and dogs).

Waving-hand Recognition & Control: The local AI chip will help the camera detect the waving hands in front of the camera, at a distance of 3 to 5 meters. Once the detection happens successfully, the device will automatically initiate a video call to the user’s EZVIZ App (It may be phrased as Gesture Detection in your EZVIZ App on different product pages, but currently this feature only detects a waving hand instead of any other hand gestures).

Abnormal Sound Sensing: The local AI chip will help the camera to detect special sound activities around it by using the built-in microphone. Such capability may include the detections of cat meowing/dog barking, baby crying sounds, and sudden loud noises (It may be phrased as Loud Noise Detection in your EZVIZ App on different product pages).

*NOTE:

The above algorithms are common and only used locally. During the operation of these algorithms, it does not involve the collection or processing of specific data such as facial features, physical characteristics, object colors/detailed features, verbal content, etc., nor does it involve the transmission, storage or processing of any original data in the cloud. Meanwhile, although the EZVIZ products that use these algorithms are produced by us, EZVIZ will NEVER participate in the processing of data resulting from the running of the algorithm, unless it is specifically agreed by the user and is necessary to provide the service specified by the user.

Controls over Your AI Features

Users can always choose to enable or disable AI detection features via the EZVIZ App for each applicable device model. Moreover, users have options to adjust the detection sensibility and customize detection zones based on their needs. For some outdoor camera and doorbell models, users can further set up no-filming privacy zones to avoid unnecessary or inappropriate motion detection/triggered video recording.
