How EyesOnIt works

START HEREWeb UI · EyesOnIt 6.1

EyesOnIt helps your team spot activity that needs attention, receive an alert, and review what happened. Start with a camera and a clear question: what should this view help you watch for?

See the workflow in the EyesOnIt web UI, from a connected camera to a reviewed incident.

  1. ConnectBring the camera view into Monitor.
  2. DetectChoose the area and condition.
  3. ActCreate an incident and run its actions.
  4. ReviewCheck the evidence and record an outcome.

Each part has a specific job:

Part What you choose Example
Camera The video source to monitor. A view of a packaging bench.
Region or line Where the condition applies. The work area, or a boundary people cross.
Detection configuration Which people or objects qualify. People, vehicles, or people missing gloves.
Rule When the condition creates an incident. A person is present for 3 seconds during working hours.
Actions What happens alongside the incident. Send a Telegram notification and retain an evidence clip.
Incident review How your team handles the event. Claim it, inspect the evidence, and confirm the outcome.

For a complete worked example, follow PPE detection and incidents.

Sign in at your EyesOnIt web address. Read the current workspace name. Provider administrators can choose Open customer workspace and select an active customer. Customer users sign in directly to their assigned workspace. Use Return to provider workspace to resume provider administration. Customer workspace setup explains how a pending customer becomes active. Your account controls which cameras and actions are available.

Live annotations show current observations. An incident snapshot highlights the person or objects associated with that event. A saved incident gives your team a record to investigate, even after the condition ends.

Use rule actions to choose notification delivery and video evidence. Configure notifications and evidence explains how to set up both.

Setting up a new server? Start with Prepare your server, Install EyesOnIt, and Complete initial setup.

  1. Connect your first camera and verify its view.
  2. Define a region or line around the area you want to monitor.
  3. Create a detection and incident rule.
  4. Add notifications or evidence and test the result.
  5. Review and resolve the incident.

For appearance-based investigations, describe a person to detect, then use the same description to search video across cameras.

To try the workflow with existing footage, process a recorded video file. Use shared camera folders to keep the views easy to find.

When the team is ready to use EyesOnIt, create their accounts and camera access, then check daily system health.
