VideoCAD full changelog

Import camera models, equipment, and cables directly from manufacturers' datasheets using AI:
Automatic datasheet parsing with detection of camera type, all possible camera modes, lenses and resolutions.
Import over a hundred parameters from many camera types, including complex ones such as:
cameras with resolution-dependent size of the active area of the image sensor and lens distortion
cameras with a set of conventional and fisheye lenses,
fisheye cameras with a limited field of view
multi-sensor cameras (including matrix cameras) with a continuous view area and an arbitrary position in space composite cameras (multi-sensor+PTZ, thermal imager+PTZ, etc.).
Calculation of missing important parameters (image sensor format, lens focal length, view angles, active area of the image sensor, resolution, crop) from the information in the datasheet.
Verification of the obtained parameters. Error detection. Handler message log.
Automatic import of a list of models without human intervention.
VideoCAD 16 does not require incomplete, inaccurate, and rapidly outdated additional databases of camera parameters. The laws of physics and powerful mathematics embedded in algorithms, combined with the capabilities of neural networks, make it possible to simulate any camera based on all information contained in original manufacturers' datasheets, but without need for deep understanding of them.
Import any models of equipment and cables directly from manufacturers' datasheets into the Equipment Database using Artificial Intelligence. You can add any security equipment, computer hardware and cables, include it in project, specification, report, place it in 2D and 3D, connect it to cameras and to each other using cables, and take it into account in calculations.

When opening the databases of camera and equipment model parameters, the length and weight values are automatically converted to the format of units of the current project.
In the case of the English (feet, inches) unit for

Project analysis tools:
Territories are defined areas on the location layout that require video surveillance with specific parameters. VideoCAD calculates the video surveillance parameters the project provides within the territory boundaries and presents them as a table.
Using Territories allows you to:
Formalize technical specifications and design results. A technical specification can be a simple list of areas marked on the layout with the required surveillance parameters.
Receive design results as numerical values convenient for analysis and further processing.
Efficiently handle projects with a large number of cameras, dense camera placement, and intersecting view area projections.
Using Territories is a step toward automating video surveillance design.
Working with Territories is possible only in VideoCAD Professional.
On the layout, each territory is bounded by one or more closed polygons of arbitrary shape. Territory polygons in 2D can vary in color, shading type, or lack thereof, and can be hidden. In 3D, territory polygons can be bounded by vertical planes and vary in color or not displayed.
A project can have an unlimited number of territories. Territories can intersect and be nested within each other.
Each territory is assigned a Pixel Density pattern from those available in the Pixel density window (e.g. Home Office Scientific Development Branch, P 78.36.008-99, European Standard EN 50132-7, Johnson Criteria, etc.), regardless of the Pixel density patterns assigned to individual cameras.
Each Pixel Density pattern has a Calculation Criterion set from the list:
vertical (horizontal) pixel density;
height (width) of the field of view;
number of vertical (horizontal) pixels per object of height (width);
portion of the height (width) of the field of view occupied by an object of height (width).
According to the value of the Pixel Density pattern Criterion, the parameters of each Territory are calculated:
The minimum, maximum, and average values of the Criter
