Does recording only on movement save as much as it seems?
It saves a lot where nothing happens and almost nothing where something does, which is usually where it matters. A warehouse closed at night can drop enormously; a street with traffic or a loading bay during working hours record practically continuously, so the expected saving never appears.
And it has a cost you have to accept: the detection has to trigger before the interesting thing happens. It is set up with a few seconds of pre-recording so the start of the scene is not lost, and even so a badly tuned detection leaves things out. In an area that genuinely matters, that risk is not worth the disc space it saves.
What we usually do is mix the two: continuous at a low frame rate, with the quality raised when there is an event. That way there are no holes in the timeline and the drive lasts a good deal longer.

A written answer is enough to decide whether it interests you. To know whether it works at your site you have to see it on a real scene, with the image as it is and, on top of it, what the system understands from it. That is on the IRIS Neural website, which is the group's product.
