Scalable Video Coding (SVC) extension of H.264/AVC is a new video coding standard for media convergence by providing diverse videos of different spatial-temporal-quality layers with a single bitstream. Recently, real-time SVC codecs are being developed for the application areas of surveillance video and mobile video, etc. This paper presents the design and implementation of a H.264/SVC decoder based on an embedded DSP using Open SVC Decoder (OSD) which is a real-time software decoder designed for the PC environment. The implementation consists of porting C code of the OSD software from PC to DSP environment, profiling the complexity performance of OSD with further optimization, and integrating the optimized decoder into the TI Davinci EVM (Evaluation Module). 50 QCIF/CIF frames or 15 SD frames per second can be decoded with the implemented DSP-based SVC decoder.

Recently, Internet of Things (IoT) and deep learning techniques have affected video surveillance systems in various ways. The surveillance features that perform detection, tracking, and classification of specific objects in Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) video are becoming more intelligent. This paper presents real-time algorithm that can run in a PC environment using only a low power CPU. Traditional tracking algorithms combine background modeling using the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), Hungarian algorithm, and a Kalman filter; they have relatively low complexity but high detection errors. To supplement this, deep learning technology was used, which can be trained from a large amounts of data. In particular, an SRGB(Sequential RGB)-3 Layer CNN was used on tracked objects to emphasize the features of moving people. Performance evaluation comparing the proposed algorithm with existing ones using HOG and SVM showed move-in and move-out error rate reductions by 7.6 % and 9.0 %, respectively.

For the purpose of protecting personal property and lives from incidents, accidents, and threats such as terrorism, video surveillance equipment has been installed and operates in many places. Video surveillance technology has gradually developed into high-quality, high-definition equipment, and a lot of products have been launched. However, closed circuit television (CCTV) equipment for security purposes can invade a person's privacy. In this paper, we propose a way to protect personal video images using meta-data in an intelligent Internet protocol (IP) camera. We designed the system to mask personal video information from meta-data, define the method of image-information access according to user privileges, and show how to utilize the meta-data during storage and recorded data searches. The suggested system complies with guidelines for CCTV installation and operation from Korea's Ministry of the Interior. Installed on only a single server so far, due to the limitations and technical difficulties of hardware performance, it has been difficult to find a method that can be applied to personal image information using real-time protection techniques. Applying the method proposed in this paper can satisfy the guidelines, reduce server costs, and reduce system complexity.

Recently, intelligent surveillance camera systems are needed popularly. However, current researches are focussed on improvement of a single module rather than implementation of an integrated system. In this paper, we implemented a wireless surveillance camera system which is composed of face detection, and using motion sensor. In our implementation, we used a camera module from SHARP, a pair of wireless video transmission module from ECOM, a pair of ZigBee RF wireless transmission module from ROBOBLOCK, and a motion sensor module (AMN14111) from PANASONIC. We used OpenCV library for face dection and MFC for implement software. We identified real-time operations of face detection, PTT control, and motion sensor detecton. Thus, the implemented system will be useful for the applications of remote control, human detection, and using motion sensor.

IPresented is a small and handy remotely piloted vehicle(RPV) that can be used for military and non-military surveillance operations. The RPV is equipped with an on-board high resolution color camera to transmit the analog video images and on-board electronics to provide real-time flight information to the pilot, thereby enabling him/her to remotely pilot within the range of 5 km radius. This paper describes the RPV system including its design, manufacturing and flight test results which manifest the stability of on-board mission and flight equipment as well as the remote piloting capability. A future plan for necessary improvements identified from the flight tests are also discussed.

Machine recognition of faces from still and video images is emerging as an active research area spanning several disciplines such as image processing, pattern recognition, computer vision and neural networks. In addition, human face identification has numerous applications such as human interface based systems and real-time video systems of surveillance and security. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that can identify a particular individual face. We consider human face identification system in color space, which hasn't often considered in conventional in conventional methods. In order to make the algorithm insensitive to luminance, we convert the conventional RGB coordinates into normalized CIE coordinates. The normalized-CIE-based facial images are KL-transformed. The transformed data are used as the input of multi-layered neural network and the network are trained using error-backpropagation methods. Finally, we verify the system performance of the proposed algorithm by experiments.

Global interests for construction of 3 dimensional spatial information has risen due to development of measurement sensors and data processing technologies. In spite of criticism for the violation of personal privacy, CCTV cameras equipped in outdoor public space of urban area are used as a fundamental sensor for traffic management, crime prevention or hazard monitoring. For safety guarantee in urban environment and disaster prevention, a surveillance system integrating pre-constructed 3 dimensional spatial information with CCTV data or video sequence is needed for monitoring and observing emergent situation interactively in real time. In this study, we proposed applicability of the prototype system for web visualization based on X3D, an international standard of real time web visualization, by integrating 3 dimensional spatial information with video sequence.

This paper is a study on implementation of intelligent image surveillance system using context information and supplements temporal-spatial constraint, the weak point in which it is hard to process it in real time. In this paper, we propose scene analysis algorithm which can be processed in real time in various environments at low resolution video(320*240) comprised of 30 frames per second. The proposed algorithm gets rid of background and meaningless frame among continuous frames. And, this paper uses wavelet transform and edge histogram to detect shot boundary. Next, representative key-frame in shot boundary is selected by key-frame selection parameter and edge histogram, mathematical morphology are used to detect only motion region. We define each four basic contexts in accordance with angles of feature points by applying vertical and horizontal ratio for the motion region of detected object. These are standing, laying, seating and walking. Finally, we carry out scene analysis by defining simple context model composed with general context and emergency context through estimating each context's connection status and configure a system in order to check real time processing possibility. The proposed system shows the performance of 92.5% in terms of recognition rate for a video of low resolution and processing speed is 0.74 second in average per frame, so that we can check real time processing is possible.

Recently, it is essential to have the system which can track down and identity the random object in the space in which security is a high priority. Due to the fact that we mentioned above, in this paper. We suggest the intelligent video surveillance system effective image-process-education in this paper. The experiment was conducted to check and track down the entering vehicle. And, Pan-Tilt-Zoom camera was used to obtain the enlarged image of the object while a vehicle was making stop in target area. As a result, the experiment has shown the data as following. When the object is in motion, success rate is 97.4%, while success rate is 91% when the object is motionless. By using the suggested system, effective image-process-education is should be achieved because the students who participate in the class can have simultaneous access to the system for real time image data and camera control.

In recent years, there has been developed systems such as a surveillance system and access control using a face recognition function instead of a password or an RFID chip, thereby reducing the risk of falsification. Moreover, deep learning technology has been applied to real-time face recognition technology in video, so it makes possible the development of access control system that improves the accuracy of recognition and efficiency of management. In this paper, we propose a real-time access management system based on face recognition using ResNet. The system is based on web server, which make it possible to manage the access by recognizing the person of the image through the camera and access information stored in the database. It can be accessed by a user application to receive various information. The implemented system identifies a person in real time and allows access control by accurately distinguishing whether they are members or not, and the test results can recognize in 0.2 seconds. The accuracy of recognition rate is up to about 97% depending on the experiment environment. With this system, access can be managed quickly and effectively, even many people rush to it.
