Sightline on an outbound camera feed
Where it fits
Suppose the yard already records the gate and the night guard wants an email when someone comes through. Icarian Labs markets its people-and-vehicle detection product as Sightline; follow the sign-in link and the application is labeled Argus. The existing recorder can keep the archive — a duty worth assigning explicitly, because Icarian says Sightline does not record continuous video.

Deployment boundary
At the recorder, select the channel that shows the gate. Note its channel number and look for a setting that sends video to a destination you supply. Menu names vary by recorder; the evidence to look for is a choice of RTMP or SRT and an editable destination for that channel. Write down the protocol, the recorder model and firmware, and which channel the setting applies to. Leave stream keys and passwords out of the record. Icarian documents either protocol for an outbound feed from behind a firewall. A03 · Connection guide
A menu that hands out an RTSP address for viewing the gate answers a different question. Paste a private recorder address into a player on the yard network: a successful picture establishes reachability from that player, no further. For RTSP pull, Sightline itself has to reach the source. If the equipment offers only its manufacturer's cloud viewer, the outbound path is still unverified. Check the gate camera's own output settings as well — the case for leaving the cabinet as it is rests on finding a compatible sender already installed there. A03/P01 · Supported stream paths
Once a test destination is available, enter it on the selected channel and start the sender. Have someone cross the gate at an agreed time, check that the crossing appears at the receiver, then pull the same interval from the yard recorder. Those two observations settle which camera arrived and whether the local recording continued. Until someone can see the gate at the receiving end, record the finding as “output setting found” and leave delivery open.
Price basis
Icarian labels its prices tentative until launch. On Starter the gate would run $178 per month at a non-4K resolution: the $49 base plus one $129 detecting camera. At 4K the same gate consumes three detecting-camera units and the figure becomes $436. Write the resolution beside the quote. Starter includes the Seen rule and email; a drawn zone or webhook calls for Pro. The trial page takes requests for upcoming access, so pin down the start date before the guard goes on the pilot roster. A08/A09/P02 · Pricing · A11 · Trial request
Evidence to request
At 06:00, open the rule preview for the gate and save both figures for the previous six hours — the projected incident count for that window, and how long detection actually ran. Have the guard note the times of a departure and return during the shift. Icarian can keep a return within ten minutes inside the same incident. Before signing, can the supervisor reconcile those two times against the local footage, the incident record and the hours under detection? A04/P05 · Six-hour preview · A05 · Incident grouping
