Overview: 

  • MV Intelligence Training for Cisco Meraki MV cameras refers to the process of configuring and training the camera's AI-powered analytics engine to improve its ability to perform intelligent video analysis
  • This advanced feature leverages machine learning (ML) technology built into the Meraki MV cameras to automatically analyze video content and extract meaningful insights including object detection of people and vehicles
  • Per Cisco, this allows users to understand the occupancy and use of the environment and search for specific security or emergency related events

Overview:

  • Per Cisco, the Intelligence Training page gives users complete visibility and control over which cameras are opted into the process and the methods for removing collected data or opting out 
  • Per Cisco, every Meraki camera sends metadata for things like object detections, motion, and light levels. Once a camera is registered into Intelligence Training, software on the Meraki Backend monitors for interesting events from cameras using only this metadata. This software will selectively collect a few frames for each interesting event and send this to Meraki's secure cloud storage for automatic annotation and training. Data is encrypted at all stages of the process, and strict access policies are in place across all resources

Remove Collected Data from Time Range:

  • Per Cisco, if training data may have been shared from a time range that shouldn't have been (for any reason), users can remove any data from that range 

Monitoring & Logging:

  • Admins can observe all automatic collections taken from cameras for Intelligence Training, along with start/stop timestamps by navigating to 'Camera >> Monitor >> Video Access' from the Meraki Dashboard
