Detect, Observe, Recognize, Identify (DORI)
 	DORI definition	Distance (wide)	Distance (tele)	
Detect	25 px/m (8 px/ft)	87.8 m (288.0 ft)	220.1 m (721.9 ft)	
Observe	63 px/m (19 px/ft)	34.8 m (114.1 ft)	87.3 m (286.3 ft)	
Recognize	125 px/m (38 px/ft)	17.6 m (57.7 ft)	44.0 m (144.3 ft)	
Identify	250 px/m (76 px/ft)	8.8 m (28.9 ft)	22.0 m (72.2 ft)	
The DORI values are calculated using pixel densities for different use cases as recommended by the EN-62676-4 standard. The calculations use the center of the image as the reference point and consider lens distortion. The possibility to recognize or identify a person or object depends on factors such as object motion, video compression, lighting conditions, and camera focus. Use margins when planning. The pixel density varies across the image, and the calculated values can differ from the distances in the real world.	
Key features and technologies
Artificial intelligence (AI)
The AI functionality capability shall identify and categorize individuals and vehicles. The device’s configuration interface shall allow the detection of either individuals, vehicles, or both.
The AI algorithm for detecting and classifying individuals and vehicles shall be preconfigured by the manufacturer, employing Deep Learning principles. 
The device containing the AI functionality shall provide direct access to the functionality, without requiring additional device applications. 
Upon detection, objects shall be outlined with red frames for individuals and blue frames for vehicles, accompanied by a corresponding indicator classification icon.
Built-in cybersecurity
Cryptographic compute module is a secure cryptographic compute module (secure module or secure element) in which the Manufacturer's device ID is securely and permanently installed and stored.
Secure boot is a boot process that consists of an unbroken chain of cryptographically validated software, starting in immutable memory (boot ROM). Being based on signed OS, secure boot ensures that a device can boot only with authorized device software. Secure boot guarantees that the Manufacturer's device is completely clean from possible malware after resetting to factory default.
Signed OS is implemented by the software vendor signing the software image with a private key, which is secret. When software has this signature attached to it, a device will validate the software before accepting and installing it. If the device detects that the software integrity is compromised, it will reject the upgrade. Signed OS is based on the industry-accepted RSA public-key encryption method.
TPM is short for Trusted Platform Module. A TPM is a component that provides a set of cryptographic features suitable for protecting information from unauthorized access. The private key is stored in the TPM and never leaves the TPM. All cryptographic operations requiring the use of the private key are sent to the TPM to be processed. This ensures that the secret part of the certificate remains safe even in the event of a security breach.
Advanced WDR imaging technology
The device shall support forensic-oriented advanced Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) imaging technology.
The forensic-oriented advanced Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) imaging technology shall utilize both dual exposure and local contrast enhancement techniques to generate images optimized for forensic purposes.
The advanced WDR imaging technology with dynamic capture shall possess the capability to composite images with varying exposure times.
Advanced WDR imaging technology with dynamic contrast shall employ a restricted contrast enhancement approach, which shall be characterized by minimal artifacts within the confined dynamic range. This method shall depend on a single exposure to ensure optimal performance in scenes with considerable motion.
Forensic-focused advanced WDR imaging technology shall prioritize forensic applicability and visual quality over elevated decibel (dB) values.
Advanced low-light technology
The device shall support advanced low-light technology.
The advanced low-light technology shall be capable of using shorter exposure times, to minimize blur and noise.
Advanced low-light technology shall combine high-quality lenses and image sensors optimized for surveillance, with digital image processing algorithms embedded in the system-on-chip.
Advanced low-light technology is crucial for granting network cameras exceptional light sensitivity, enabling them to maintain day mode and deliver color images even in dimly lit scenarios. Color representation often serves as a decisive aspect for recognizing individuals, objects, or vehicles in surveillance contexts.
Video compression technology
The device shall support video compression technology.
The video compression technology shall run directly in the camera. It shall not require a server or third-party app for its function.
The video compression technology shall facilitate the utilization of higher resolutions, thereby increasing forensic usability, while simultaneously reducing storage costs. 
This technology shall embody a standards-compliant video encoder implementation, reducing bandwidth and storage requirements by an average of 50% or more when compared with conventional techniques.
Important details and motion must be maintained at high quality, whereas the remaining image information shall undergo more aggressive filtering, to optimally leverage the available bandwidth.
This technology incorporates an assortment of algorithms that perform real-time analysis of the video stream:
• Dynamic ROI (Regions Of Interest) - Detects regions of interest based on objects, individuals or motion within the scene, subsequently applying an appropriate compression level from a forensic perspective.
• Dynamic GOP (Group Of Pictures) - The camera transmits resource-intensive I-frames less frequently in scenes devoid of motion.
• Dynamic FPS (Frames Per Second) - Decreases the bitrate when there is little or no motion in the scene. The camera captures and analyses video at full frame rate, but superfluous frames are not encoded.

The video compression technology shall include support for PTZ camera functionality, 4K Ultra HD, multi-megapixel cameras and 360-degree panoramic cameras, incorporating dynamic FPS limitation and dynamic FPS frame skipping.
The video compression technology shall provide support for H.264 in all products, as well as additional support for H.265 in selected products, enabling flexible migration over an extended period.
