Access the metadata of the Privacy Shields Model

[jgreina]

Hello,

during testing with an axis camera I noticed that the model which is detecting humans for the privacy shield is especially for not moving humans better than any other axis model even the scene metadata.
Does somebody know if it possible to access the metadata from the privacy shield model? (since its not listed in the API as possible Publisher for metadata)
I am trying to develop an application which runs entirely on the axis camera and the aim is to detect if people jump or climb over a fence. I know there are AXIS Apps for this but during testing out these apps as I mentioned above the detection is not sufficient enough. Therefore I am looking forward to any ideas.

Thanks a lot in advance!

whats know exactly the question ? you can look with metadata monitor about what you all get from a model

Thank you for your response, as in my message stated my main question is:

"Does somebody know if it possible to access the metadata from the privacy shield model?"

I already used the metadata monitor but as also described the API is not listing the privacy model at all so I can't access the metadata even via the metadata monitor.

ok but there are a lot of models that support privacy shield acap, what meta data you need ?

I already used the metadata monitor but as also described the API is not listing the privacy model at all so I can't access the metadata even via the metadata monitor. wich docs/api you are mean, link?

I used the Analytics Metadata Producer Configuration API to understand which producers of metadata are available and there the privacy shield model was not listed. That's why I thought its no possible to access the metadata.

Could you tell me which axis models use privacy shield?

I am looking forward to detect and track humans. If this answers your question?

privacy shield is an ACAP so you can install it on supported models. If you are looking to detect and track humans you could either use the Metadata Broker API (ACAP) or using larod / computer vision sdk with your own model. hope that helps

I don't think you understand the problem/question, its not possible to access the privacy shield metadata you can activate the privacy shield application but the meta data is not published anywhere.

[Cacsjep]

ok now i get it, so you would get meta data from the privacy shield acap itself, but what you expect, bounding boxes and class scores ?

[Cacsjep]

privacy shield is not an meta data producer so from the privacy shield acap you dont get any metadata

[jgreina]

Yes, sorry if I explained it not clearly!

exactly this is my question, this was also my conclusion that its not possible to get or subscribe to the metadata.
Bounding Boxes would be my preferred output, and I think from a technical side it's not hard to publish these from the meta data model. That's why I wondered why there are not published.
