3-3. VCA (Video Content Analysis)
The VCA Report utility is started from the tool bar on top, . The VCA Report utility provides
comprehensive graphs and line charts for quick access to the data collected through VIVOTEK's
People Counting modules, such as the SC8131 stereo camera. Statistical results is refreshed
by hour or minutes, and you can compare the results acquired through different time periods or
among different surveillance areas. These data help figuring the customer flow in retails so that
shop owners can optimize the arrangement of store layout, or mange queues more efficiently.
Note that the configuration of detection methods in People Counting still occur on a web console
to individual cameras. It is not configurable through the VAST LiveClient.

The VAST2 server instance runs in the background. The VAST2 management console needs
not be started during the VCA Report data collection process.
2. Cameras running the VCA utilities have been configured and added into the VAST deployment.
