전방위 감시카메라에는 어안렌즈를 이용하여 광대역감시가 가능하도록 물체감지알고리즘으로 물체를 단위별 레벨링한 다음 전방위 감시카메라와 추적(PTZ)카메라로 구성된 시스템으로 연동하여 현장실험한 것이다. 전방위 감시카메라가 움직이는 물체를 정확히 감지하며 사각표시를 하였고 추적카메라와 유기적으로 연동하며 확대 추적하였다. 감지카메라와 화염감지 및 온도에 대한 현장실험에서는 오토스캔 중 화염이 감지되면 멈추며, 해당 화점부분을 화면의 중심부분으로 이동시켜 온도가 표출되었다. 또한 화염이격거리별 검지에 필요한 발열량의 인정기준인 1 km 2,340 kcal를 초과한 1.5 km에서도 가능하였다. 거리에 따른 화염감지성능시험에서는 거리 1 km일 때 폭 56 cm ${\times}$ 높이 90 cm를 초과한 1.5 km에서도 가능하여 산불화재에도 적응성이 충분하였다. 향후 석유 가스비축시설 및 저유소에 설치하면 자체는 물론 주위 화재예방 및 침입감시 등의 안전에 매우 유용할 것으로 기대된다.

This paper proposes an intelligent video surveillance system for human object tracking. The proposed system integrates the object extraction, human object recognition, face detection, and camera control. First, the object in the video signals is extracted using the background subtraction. Then, the object region is examined whether it is human or not. For this recognition, the region-based shape descriptor, angular radial transform (ART) in MPEG-7, is used to learn and train the shapes of human bodies. When it is decided that the object is human or something to be investigated, the face region is detected. Finally, the face or object region is tracked in the video, and the pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) controllable camera tracks the moving object with the motion information of the object. This paper performs the simulation with the real CCTV cameras and their communication protocol. According to the experiments, the proposed system is able to track the moving object(human) automatically not only in the image domain but also in the real 3-D space. The proposed system reduces the human supervisors and improves the surveillance efficiency with the computer vision techniques.

In the images of a video camera employed for surveillance, detecting targets by extracting foreground image is of great importance. The foreground regions detected, however, include not only moving targets but also their shadows. This paper presents a novel technique to detect shadow pixels in the foreground image of a video camera. The image characteristics of video cameras employed, a web-cam and a CCD, are first analysed in the HSV color space and a pixel-level shadow detection technique is proposed based on the analysis. Compared with existing techniques where unified criteria are used to all pixels, the proposed technique determines shadow pixels utilizing a fact that the effect of shadowing to each pixel is different depending on its brightness in background image. Such an approach can accommodate local features in an image and hold consistent performance even in changing environment. In experiments targeting pedestrians, the proposed technique showed better results compared with an existing technique.

This paper proposes a method to estimate the flow speed of pedestrians in surveillance videos. In the proposed method, the average moving speed of pedestrians is measured by estimating the size of real-world motion from the observed motion vectors. For this purpose, pixel-to-meter conversion factors are calculated from camera geometry. Also, the height information, which is missing because of camera projection, is predicted statistically from simulation experiments. Compared to the previous works for flow speed estimation, our method can be applied to various camera views because it separates scene parameters explicitly. Experiments are performed on both simulation image sequences and real video. In the experiments on simulation videos, the proposed method estimated the flow speed with average error of about 0.1m/s. The proposed method also showed a promising result for the real video.

In recent years, there has been increasing use of automatic surveillance and monitoring systems based on vision sensors. Humans are often the most important target in the systems, but processing human images is difficult due to the small sizes and flexible motions. Particularly, occlusion among pedestrians in camera images brings practical problems. In this paper, we propose a novel method to separate image regions of occluded pedestrians. A camera equipped with a wide angle lens is attached to the ceiling of a building corridor for sensing pedestrians with a wide field of view. The output images of the camera are processed for the human detection, tracking, identification, distortion correction, and occlusion handling. We resolve the occlusion problem adaptively depending on the angles and positions of their heads. Experimental results showed that the proposed method is more efficient and accurate compared with existing methods.

In this paper, we introduced design of intelligent surveillance camera system and typical event processing scenario for urban transit. To analyze video, we studied events that frequently occur in surveillance camera system. Scenario is designed for estimation in the case of seven representative situations(designated area invasion, an object left alone, removed object in designated area, object tracking, loitering and congestion measurement) in urban transit. Our system is optimized for low hardware complexity, real time processing and scenario dependent solution.

This paper proposes a fast zooming and focusing technique for implementing a real-time surveillance camera system which can capture a face image in less than 1 second. It determines the positions of zooming and focusing lenses using two-step algorithm. In the first step, it moves the zooming and focusing lenses simultaneously to the positions calculated using the lens equations for achieving the predetermined magnification. In the second step the focusing lens is adjusted so that it is positioned at the place where the focus measure is the maximum. The camera system implemented for the experiments has shown that the proposed algorithm spends about 0.56 second on average fur obtaining a focused image.

네트워크 인프라의 성장과 디지털 영상압축 기술의 발달로 네트워크 카메라 서버를 이용한 실시간 영상감시 시스템의 수요가 증가하고 있다. 기존의 CCTV를 이용한 실시간 영상감시에 비해 네트워크 카메라 서버를 이용한 영상감시는 많은 이점이 있다. 본 논문에선 실시간 영상감시 시스템의 핵심 모듈로서 JPEG 영상의 수집과 전달을 담당하는 JPEG Streamer의 모델을 제시하고 이를 설계, 구현한다. JPEG Streamer의 안정성과 효율성을 위해서 쓰레드 풀과 공유 메모리를 사용했다. 실시간 영상의 품질을 높이기 위해서 더블 버퍼링의 개념을 도입했다. 이렇게 구현된 JPEG Streamer를 실시간 영상감시 시스템의 개발에 이용함으로써 생산성을 높일 수 있을 뿐 아니라, 신뢰성과 안정성도 확보 할 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose an active stereo surveillance system with human-like convergence function. The proposed system uses a bottom-up saliency map model with the human-like selective attention visual function to select an interesting region in each camera. and this system compares the landmarks whether the selective region in each camera finds a same region. If the left and right cameras successfully find a same landmarks, the implemented vision system focuses on the landmark. Using the motor encoder information, we can automatically obtain the depth information and resultantly construct a depth map using the depth information. Computer simulation and experimental results show that the proposed convergence method is very effective to implement the active stereo surveillance system.

This paper proposes a moving object detection algorithm for active camera system that can be applied to mobile robot and intelligent surveillance system. Most of moving object detection algorithms based on a stationary camera system. These algorithms used fixed surveillance system that does not consider the motion of the background or robot tracking system that track pre-learned object. Unlike the stationary camera system, the active camera system has a problem that is difficult to extract the moving object due to the error occurred by the movement of camera. In order to overcome this problem, the motion of the camera was compensated by using SURF and Pseudo Perspective model, and then the moving object is extracted efficiently using stochastic Label Cluster transport model. This method is possible to detect moving object because that minimizes effect of the background movement. Our approach proves robust and effective in terms of moving object detection in active camera system.
