The surveillance camera market has developed and plays an important role in the field of video surveillance. However, in recent years, the identification of areas requiring surveillance has been limited by reflective light in the surveillance camera market. Cameras using polarization filters are being developed to reduce reflective light and facilitate identification. Programs are required to automatically adjust polarization filters. In this paper, we proposed an optimal angle extraction method from surveillance cameras using polarization filters through histogram analysis. First of all, transformed to grayscale to analyze the specifications of frames in multiple polarized angle images, reducing computational throughput. Then we generated and analyzed a histogram of the corresponding frame to extract the angle when the highlights are the fewest. Experiments with 0˚ and 90˚ showed high performance in extracting optimal angles. At this point, it is hoped this technology would be used for surveillance cameras in place like beach with a lot of reflective light.

보안이 중요시되는 공간에서 지능형 감시 시스템의 필요성이 점차 중요시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 embedded Linux 기반의 Mobile Robot에 Network Camera를 탑재하여 침입자를 추적할 수 있는 시스템 구현에 목적을 두고 있다. Network Camera부터 Wireless Lan을 이용하여 서버로 영상을 전송하고, 서버에서 블록매칭 알고리즘을 이용하여 침입자의 이동경로를 파악하며 침입자에 대한 방향 정보를 전송하여 침입자를 추적한다. 로봇이 침입자를 추적함에 따라 침입자의 유효 영상을 얻는다. 본 논문에 의해서 구현된 시스템은 다른 감시 시스템과 연동하여 지능형 감시 시스템으로서 신뢰성을 더할 수 있다.

PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) camera based surveillance systems are enlarging their field of application due to their wide observable area. We aimed to detect both static and moving objects in automated working space by using a PTZ camera. For object detection we used background difference method because of the high quality segmentation. However, the method has a problem called 'hole' that is caused by non-continuous surveillance of the PTZ camera and its own characteristics. Moreover, the occlusion which occurs when the moving object overlaps with the static object should be solved for robust object detection. In this paper, we suggest a region-based technique for updating background images thereby overcoming the hole and occlusion problem. Through experiments with real scenes, it was verified that meaningful static and/or moving objects were detected very well.

The demand for a real-time image surveillance system using network camera server is increasing as the network infra has been grown and digital video compression techniques have been developed. The image surveillance system using network camera server has several merits compared to existing real-time image surveillance system using CCTV. It would be more convenient if wireless realtime image transmission were possible. In this paper, a bluetooth module is designed and implemented for a real-time image surveillance system to send and receive informations wirelessly. It may simplify the system development procedures and increase the productivity by low power consumption, low cost, and simple wireless installation. A scatter-net formation is proposed using dynamic and distributed algorithm so that the network connection is reliable.

Given the widespread use of intelligent surveillance cameras at construction sites, recent studies have introduced vision-based deep learning approaches. These studies have focused on enhancing the performance of vision-based excavator activity recognition to automatically monitor productivity metrics such as activity time and work cycle. However, acquiring a large amount of training data, i.e., videos captured from actual construction sites, is necessary for developing a vision-based excavator activity recognition model. Yet, complexities of dynamic working environments and security concerns at construction sites pose limitations on obtaining such videos from various surveillance camera locations. Consequently, this leads to performance degradation in excavator activity recognition models, reducing the accuracy and efficiency of heavy equipment productivity analysis. To address these limitations, this study aimed to conduct sensitivity analysis of excavator activity recognition performance based on surveillance camera location, utilizing synthetic videos generated from a game-engine-based virtual environment (Unreal Engine). Various scenarios for surveillance camera placement were devised, considering horizontal distance (20m, 30m, and 50m), vertical height (3m, 6m, and 10m), and horizontal angle (0° for front view, 90° for side view, and 180° for backside view). Performance analysis employed a 3D ResNet-18 model with transfer learning, yielding approximately 90.6% accuracy. Main findings revealed that horizontal distance significantly impacted model performance. Overall accuracy decreased with increasing distance (76.8% for 20m, 60.6% for 30m, and 35.3% for 50m). Particularly, videos with a 20m horizontal distance (close distance) exhibited accuracy above 80% in most scenarios. Moreover, accuracy trends in scenarios varied with vertical height and horizontal angle. At 0° (front view), accuracy mostly decreased with increasing height, while accuracy increased at 90° (side view) with increasing height. In addition, limited feature extraction for excavator activity recognition was found at 180° (backside view) due to occlusion of the excavator's bucket and arm. Based on these results, future studies should focus on enhancing the performance of vision-based recognition models by determining optimal surveillance camera locations at construction sites, utilizing deep learning algorithms for video super resolution, and establishing large training datasets using synthetic videos generated from game-engine-based virtual environments.

Surveillance system on the internet has attained lots of interests recently. Computer gives surveillance system various functions like remote control and motion detecting. In this paper. auto target tracking system using Pan/Tilt camera is suggested. It consists of UNIX server and Pan/Tilt camera. When UNIX server detect motions from images it sends Pan/Tilt command to camera and camera moves by command. After finishing movement camera replies to server and server starts detecting motion again. To improve performance of motion detecting and tracking images are divided into 9 sub-regions and camera behaves differently. It is certain that robust tracking is achieved when sub-region is applied.

An effective dual-mode camera system(a passive wide-angle camera and a pan-tilt-zoom camera) is proposed in order to improve the performance of visual surveillance. The fixed wide-angle camera is used to monitor large open areas, but the moving objects on the images are too small to view in detail. And, the PTZ camera is capable of increasing the monitoring area and enhancing the image quality by tracking and zooming in on a specific moving target. However, its FOV (Field of View) is limited when zooming in on a specific target. Therefore, the cooperation of wide-angle and PTZ cameras is complementary. In this paper, we propose an automatic initial set-up algorithm and coordinate transform method from the wide-angle camera coordinate to the PTZ one, which are necessary to achieve the cooperation. The automatic initial set-up algorithm is able to synchronize the views of two cameras. When a moving object appears on the image plane of a wide-angle camera after the initial set-up positioning, the obtained values of the wide-angle camera should be transformed to the PTZ values based on the coordinate transform method. We also develope the PTZ control method. Various in-door and out-door experiments show that the proposed dual-camera system is feasible for the effective visual surveillance.
