Confidence Levels

When EyesOnIt detects an object based on your detection configuration, it generates a confidence level for that detection between 1 and 99. As you might expect, a high confidence level such as 98 or 99 indicates that EyesOnIt is very confident that it is seeing the object you described in your detection configuration. A low confidence level such as 5 or 10 indicates that EyesOnIt does not think it is seeing the object that you described.

One important use of confidence levels is with alerting. When you configure alerts in your detection configurations, you tell EyesOnIt how confident you want it to be before sending an alert. For example an alert configuration could tell EyesOnIt to only send an alert if it observes the object for 5 seconds with a confidence level above 95%.
