Thank you for purchasing ACTi products. The following documentation covers the

environmental factors or inappropriate installation. Please follow the
procedures in this guide. ACTi will not be held liable for inaccuracies resulting
from the aforesaid causes.
Installation Specifications
Installation Scenario
The accuracy rate of face recognition greatly involves the installation location,
ambient light (such as too dark, too bright) and so on. In order to ensure to get the
best results, below are some installation suggestions:
Installation position should be a standard passageway or entrance or exit ways with
a particular direction of traffic.
Choose a stable lighting condition with adequate illumination. Light compensation is
necessary to ensure the facial features are visible under the condition of insufficient
light or backlight.
Examples of standard scenarios:

CONFIGURATION GUIDE

Examples of unsuitable scenarios:
Backlight Insufficient Light
Installation Height Requirements
1. The camera should be installed in front of the passageway where it can
capture the face. The horizontal tilt angle of the camera must be less than
<25 °.
2. The camera installation must be elevated. This is to avoid the situation where
a face is obscured by the person in front of him in case they go through the
passageway closely one after the other. The vertical elevation angle should
be within: α=15±5°.
3. The covered Pupil Distance (PD) pixels must be greater than 40 pixels to
distinguish the face details from the captured image. The practical width of
detection area should be less than or equal to 3 meters with a 2MP camera.
