Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING A SCALABLE MULTI-CAMERA DISTRIBUTED VIDEO PROCESSING AND VISUALIZATION SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004114648
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A scalable architecture for providing real-time multi-camera distributed video processing and visualization. An exemplary system comprises at least one video capture and storage system (140) for capturing and storing a plurality of alarm situations or events, and at least one video rendering system for displaying an alarm situation in a context that speeds up comprehension and response. One advantage of the present architecture is that these systems are scalable, such that additional sensors (e.g. cameras, motion sensors, infrared sensors, chemical sensors, biological sensors, temperature sensors and the like) can be added in large numbers without overhelming the ability of security forces to comprehend the alarm situation.
