It is important to look at the DORI (Detection Observation Recognition Identification) range of your camera, if that specification is posted. This specification explains the distance from the camera that a person can be detected, observed, recognized, and identified. The identification range is the most relevant here, and the distance listed by the camera is the furthest that face recognition will realistically work. +Some users have also noted that setting the stream in camera firmware to a constant bit rate (CBR) leads to better image clarity than with a variable bit rate (VBR). + ### Why can't I bulk upload photos? It is important to methodically add photos to the library, bulk importing photos (especially from a general photo library) will lead to over-fitting in that particular scenario and hurt recognition performance.
