چکیده

Choosing the appropriate type of video input is an important issue for any vision-based system and the right decision must take into account the specific requirements of the intended application. In the context of Intelligent Room systems, we establish several qualitative criteria to evaluate the video input component and we use them to compare three current solutions: mobile pan-tilt-zoom cameras, wide-angle lens cameras and electronic pantilt-zoom cameras. We show that electronic pan-tilt-zoom systems best satisfy our criteria. To support this claim, we present GlobeAll, a modular four-component prototype for a vision-based Intelligent Room: a video input component that uses an electronic pan-tilt-zoom camera array, a background learning and foreground extraction component, a tracking component and an interpretation component.

How panoramic visualization can support human supervision of intelligent surveillance

In video-based surveillance people monitor a wide spatial area through video sensors for anomalous events related to safety and security. The size of the area, the number of video sensors, and the camera’s narrow field-of-view make this a challenging cognitive task. Computer vision researchers have developed a wide range of algorithms to recognize patterns in the video stream (intelligent camer...

Robot companion localization at home and in the office

The abilities of mobile robots depend greatly on the performance of basic skills such as vision and localization. Although great progress has been made to explore and map extensive public areas with large holonomic robots on wheels, less attention is paid on the localization of a small robot companion in a confined environment as a room in office or at home. In this article, a localization algo...
