What kinds of cameras are recommended for use with this feature?
- IP cameras are not typically positioned well to capture a live photo that can reliably be used for face matching, as the field of vision from ceiling mounted cameras is too high, so we do not recommend the use of this feature with IP cameras. A 1080p30 webcam mounted a bit above average eye level is recommended, with a light source in front of, not behind the visitor.
