Windows Server    AW-SF200 Auto Tracking Server Software
 Auto Tracking Server Software is application software that runs on Windows. By operating this software on a Windows Server PC to which a Panasonic remote camera is connected, tracking of persons shot by the remote camera can be performed simultaneously by multiple remote cameras.
Ver.4 or later: A stable tracking operation can be performed by the face authentication function that detects the face of the set person and the human body detection by deep learning.

Auto Tracking Server Software Ver.5.6.5


  GPU is required to run the system.
  
  
    Web Application: 5.6.0, Tracking Control: 5.6.0, Auto Tracking Lib: 5.6.4
