Release Notes IDS NXT 4.1

New and changed functions

• Support of vision apps of type .mvapp for IDS NXT malibu.
• Streaming:
  • To increase security, authentication has been implemented for access to the streams.
  • Settings in the "Streaming" tab are only possible in the "Admin" user profile. The settings can be viewed in the "Service" user profile.
  • Support for additional streaming resolutions (1440 x 1080, UHD and WQHD)
  • A new stream (Stream 3) has been implemented. Stream 3 supports streaming via HTTP.

General improvements

• Stability improvements in connection with the streaming settings.
• An error message has been added to the system status information. The message is displayed if a problem has occurred with the sensor.
• Vision app results are displayed with the SI unit symbols.
• For the list order of the vision app results, the index and then the identifier are now used.

Bugfixes

• An error caused that the initial password change in the Finder was not confirmed. Once you have successfully changed your password in the Finder, the password change will now be confirmed and you will be logged on automatically.
• An error caused that the dialog "IDS NXT OS Update available" was displayed incorrectly. This error has been fixed. The dialog is displayed if an outdated OS version is installed on the camera.
• An error could lead that the connection to the camera was not automatically re-established after changing the IP address. This error has been fixed.

Anomaly Finder 4.1

• New vision app for anomaly detection. The Anomaly Finder vision app makes it possible to recognise deviations from the trained target state. The vision app does not contain a CNN, as anomaly detection only provides reliable results if the CNN has been trained with images of the corresponding application situation. You can train a CNN with your own images in IDS lighthouse.
  The vision app is available for the camera families IDS NXT rio and IDS NXT rome (.vapp) as well as for IDS NXT malibu cameras (.mvapp). You will find the right vision app for your camera in the download area after you have selected your camera model.

Classifier 4.1

• The vision app Classifier 4.1 only supports IDS NXT malibu cameras. All vision apps for IDS NXT cameras previously had the .vapp file format. Vision apps for IDS NXT malibu cameras now have the .mvapp file format. This makes the assignment between the vision app and the supported camera directly visible. For the cameras IDS NXT rio and IDS NXT rome, use the vision app Classifier 3.1.

• The information texts for the plugin have been expanded.
• The GPIO Gateway plugin is now also available for IDS NXT malibu cameras. You will find the right plugin for your camera in the download area after you have selected your camera model.

Object Detector 4.1

• The vision app Object Detector 4.1 only supports IDS NXT malibu cameras. All vision apps for IDS NXT cameras previously had the .vapp file format.
