An essential feature of any physical security platform is keeping users informed. The YourSixOS platform enables customers and integrators to stay aware of security events, as well as health, image quality and tampering incidents, through real-time notifications. With the latest enhancement, YourSixOS now fully supports Axis Image Health Analytics, giving organizations even greater visibility into camera performance and image quality issues before they become critical.
Why Image Health Matters
Clear video is the foundation of any effective security system. If a camera is misaligned, covered, out of focus, or otherwise impaired, the value of that system diminishes instantly. Axis Image Health Analytics continuously monitors the quality of the video stream, detecting conditions such as:
- Blurry or out-of-focus images
- Obstructions or blocked fields of view
- Overexposure, underexposure, or sudden lighting changes
- Misaligned or shifted camera views
Instead of relying on manual checks or waiting for an incident to reveal a problem, the analytic proactively alerts you when image quality is compromised.
How YourSixOS Extends Axis Analytics
YourSixOS takes Axis Image Health Analytics a step further by integrating its outputs directly into the health/tampering notification framework of the platform. That means whenever Axis cameras trigger an image health event, YourSixOS can automatically notify the right people in real time.
Notification Options
Users can configure YourSixOS to deliver alerts via:
- Email notifications to designated team members
- Push notifications through the Y6OS mobile application
This ensures that whether you are in the office, on the go, or part of a monitoring team, you’ll know the moment an image health issue occurs.
Unified Health & Tampering Awareness
Axis image health events are now part of the broader set of health and tampering notifications within YourSixOS, which already includes:
- Device Disconnect/Connect: Get notified when a device disconnects or connects to the platform.
- Storage Disruption: Be alerted if storage, such as an SD card, fails or disconnects.
- Tampering: Receive alerts for tilt detection, shock detection, case opened, and video tampering events.
With the addition of Image Health, YourSixOS delivers a complete, unified view of both device performance and image integrity, ensuring your security team never misses a critical issue.
The Customer Impact
By supporting Axis Image Health Analytics, YourSixOS helps customers:
- Reduce blind spots by resolving image issues before they affect investigations.
- Lower maintenance costs by catching problems early, often without a truck roll.
- Strengthen compliance by ensuring cameras remain in proper working condition.
- Improve response times with automated, targeted notifications to the right people.
