Full Body Redaction

When using the auto-blur mode Identity Cloak will now allow you the option to automatically blur all bodies.

To use the full body redaction, carry out your redaction on the first redaction screen as you have done so previously. When you move on to the second redaction screen, the one with dynamic adjustment and degree of blur options, you will now see two check boxes have been added, tick the one labelled full body blur. Tick this box to redact everyone’s body. Rectangles will now appear over the people in your video.

Please note if you are using the auto-tracking feature the person’s head will remain un-redacted but their body will still be redacted when you select full body redaction.

License Plate Redaction

When using auto-blur or inverse mode Identity Cloak will now allow you the option to automatically redact any number plates.

To use the license plate redaction, carry out your redaction as you normally would on the first redaction screen. When you move on to the second redaction screen, the one with dynamic adjustment and degree of blur options, you will now see two check boxes have been added, tick the one labelled License Plate. Rectangles will now appear over vehicles where License Plates are.

Circle Size on Auto-Tracking

There had been a bug with the circle on the auto-tracking, where if your circle did not match the size of the head, it would not be able to track the person. This has now been fixed so any size circle will be able to track the person, however, you do still need to ensure that there is only one head within the circle otherwise the tracking will not work.

Increased accuracy

Increased accuracy when it comes to auto-blur mode.
