본 논문에서는 multi-camera를 이용한 인터넷 기반의 지능적 감시 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 두 종류의 카메라, static camera와 pan-tilt camera, 를 이용하여 출입구를 감시하고, 비인가자를 추적한다. static camera는 출·입을 검출하고 출입자를 인가자와 비인가자로 분류하는데 이용되고, pan-tilt camera는 비인가자로 분류된 출입자를 추적하는데 이용된다. 제안된 시스템은 세 가지 단계: 출입구 감시, 출입자 검출 및 분류(인가자/비인가자), 비인가자 추적으로 구성된다 출입구 감시는 출입문의 밝기값 변화를 이용한다 출입자 검출 및 분류는 skin color 모델과 얼굴 크기, 위치와 관련된 휴리스틱을 이용하여 얼굴을 검출하고, PCA(Principal Component Analysis)를 이용한 eigenspace상에서의 유클리디언 디스턴스로 템플릿 얼굴과 입력 얼굴의 유사도를 계산하여 인가자인지 비인가자인지 분류한다. 비인가자 추적은 pan-tilt 카메라를 이용하여, static camera에서 분류된, 비인가자의 움직임을 검출하고 카메라를 제어함으로써 추적한다 제안된 시스템은 무인 감시 상황에서 비인가자의 출입시 감시자에게 경고 신호를 제공하고, 감시지역에서 사건 발생시, 사건의 개요를 파악하는 중요한 정보를 빠른 시간에 제공할 수 있다는 장점을 가진다.

An unmanned surveillance robot consists of a machine gun, a laser receiver, a thermal imager, a color CCD camera, and a laser illuminator. It has two axis control systems for elevation and azimuth. Because the current robot system is mounded at a fixed post to take care of surveillance tasks, it is necessary to modify such a surveillance robot to be installed on an UGV (Unmanned Ground Vehicle) system in order to watch blind areas. Thus, it is required to have a stabilization system to compensate the disturbance from the UGV. In this paper, a simulation based design scheme has been adopted to develop a mobile surveillance robot. The 3D CAD geometry model has first been produced by using Pro-Engineer. The required pan and tilt motor capacities have been analyzed using ADAMS inverse dynamics analysis. A target tracking and stabilization control algorithm of the mobile surveillance robot has been developed in order to compensate the motion of the vehicle which will experience the rough terrain. To test the performance of the stabilization control system of the robot, ADAMS/simulink co-simulations has been carried out.

When a video surveillance system tracks a specific object, it is very important to get quickly the information of the object through fast image processing. Usually one camera surveillance system for tracking the object made results in various problems such like occlusion, image noise during the tracking process. It makes difficulties on image based moving object tracking. Therefore, to overcome the difficulties the multi video surveillance system which installed several camera within interested area and looking the same object from multi angles of view could be considered as a solution. If multi cameras are used for tracking object, it is capable of making a decision having high accuracy in more wide space. This paper proposes a method of recognizing and tracking a specific object like a car using the homography in which multi cameras are installed at the crossroad.

Surveillance cameras in national border and coastline area often occur the video distortion because of rapidly changing weather and light environments. It is positively necessary to enhance the distorted video quality for keeping surveillance. In this paper, we propose an adaptive video enhancement algorithm in the various environment changes. To solve an unstable performance problem of the existing method, the proposed method is based on Retinex algorithm and uses enhanced curves which is adapted in foggy and low-light conditions. In addition, we mixture the weighted HSV color model to keep color constancy and reduce noise to obtain clear images. As a results, the proposed algorithm improves the performance of well-balanced contrast enhancement and effective color restoration without any quality loss compared with the existing algorithm. We expect that this method will be used in surveillance camera systems and offer help of national defence with reliability.

Surveillance cameras installed in tunnels capture the various video frames effected by dynamic and variable factors. In addition, localizing and managing the cameras in tunnel is not affordable, and quality of capturing frame is effected by time. In this paper, we introduce a new method to detect and track the vehicles in tunnel by using surveillance cameras installed in a tunnel. It is difficult to detect the video frames directly from surveillance cameras due to the motion blur effect and blurring effect on lens by dirt. In order to overcome this difficulties, two new methods such as Differential Frame/Non-Maxima Suppression (DFNMS) and Haar Cascade Detector to track cars are proposed and investigated for their feasibilities. In the study, it was shown that high precision and recall values could be achieved by the two methods, which then be capable of providing practical data and key information to an automatic accident detection system in tunnels.

In the image processing for VS (Video Surveillance), the detection of moving entities in a monitored scene is an important step. A background subtraction technique has been widely employed to find the moving entities. However, the extracted foreground regions often include not only real entities but also their cast shadows, and this can cause errors in following image processing steps, such as tracking, recognition, and analysis. In this paper, a novel technique is proposed to determine the shadow pixels of moving objects in the foreground image of a VS camera. Compared to existing techniques where the same decision criteria are applied to all moving pixels, the proposed technique determines shadow pixels using local features based on two facts: First, the amount of pixel intensity drop due to a shadow depends on the intensity level of background. Second, the distribution pattern of pixel intensities remains even if a shadow is cast. The proposed method has been tested at various situations with different backgrounds and moving humans in different colors.

In this paper, we design and implement an advanced cattle shed management system using a infrared wireless sensor nodes and surveillance camera. Our system provides three main capabilities, such as 24-hours cattle shed monitoring, trespassing detection, automatic control of cattle shed. For this, our system can monitor cattle shed as well as the condition of cows/bulls for 24 hours per day by using surveillance cameras. Our system also can detect intruders inside the cattle shed by using infrared wireless sensor nodes. In addition, our system can control the power of electric equipments in the cattle shed by using a power controller. Finally, we combine the three components into a system by using a smartphone application program and verify the effectiveness of our system by a testbed.

In this paper, the sound source localization system in real time which uses the time delay of arrival signal is proposed. This system uses minimum microphones and surveillance camera for estimation of the sound source localization and sound direction. To apply this system to the military field, four models(model1~model4) are derived. Model 1 can be used to evaluate the sound source localization at the long distance. Model2 and model3 can be applied to estimate the sound direction. Model4 is useful for the special purpose and potable device. It is possible for this system to be used for the military guard and surveillance. As a result of experiments, It is shown that this system can estimate the sound source localization and the sound direction using minimum microphones.

The construction industry has the highest occupational accidents/injuries among all industries. Korean government installed surveillance camera systems at construction sites to reduce occupational accident rates. Construction safety managers are monitoring potential hazards at the sites through surveillance system; however, the human capability of monitoring surveillance system with their own eyes has critical issues. Therefore, this study proposed to build a deep learning-based safety monitoring system that can obtain information on the recognition, location, identification of workers and heavy equipment in the construction sites by applying multiple-object tracking with instance segmentation. To evaluate the system's performance, we utilized the MS COCO and MOT challenge metrics. These results present that it is optimal for efficiently automating monitoring surveillance system task at construction sites.
