### *Key Elements of Intruder Photography in Security Systems*
#### *1. Identification Features*
– *Facial Recognition* – Clear frontal images for database matching (e.g., law enforcement watchlists)
– *Clothing & Distinct Markings* – Logos, colors, accessories, tattoos, or scars
– *Behavioral Cues* – Body language, gait analysis, or unusual movements
#### *2. Evidentiary Requirements*
✔ *Timestamp & Location Metadata* – Embedded in the image file for legal validity
✔ *High Resolution (4K/8MP+)* – Ensures zoom capability without pixelation
✔ *Multiple Angles* – Cross-camera views to confirm identity
✔ *IR/Night Vision Clarity* – Detailed imaging in low-light conditions
#### *3. AI-Enhanced Forensic Analysis*
– *Object Detection* – Weapons, tools, or stolen items in possession
– *Motion Tracking* – Path reconstruction across multiple cameras
– *Alert Automation* – Real-time notifications to security personnel
