Abstract
A video surveillance system is set up, calibrated, tasked, and operated. The system extracts video primitives and extracts event occurrences from the video primitives using event discriminators. The extracted video primitives and event occurrences may be used to create and define additional video analytic rules. The system can undertake a response, such as an alarm, based on extracted event occurrences.
Claims27
A video surveillance system comprising:
- a video sensor for receiving a video;
- a processing unit for processing the received video;
- a rule detector for creating a rule from the processed video;
- an event detector for detecting an event of interest based on the rule;
- and
- output means for outputting information based on the detected event of interest.
An apparatus for video surveillance configured to perform a method comprising:
- receiving a video;
- processing the received video;
- creating a rule from the processed video;
- detecting an event of interest in the video based on the rule;
- and
- outputting information based on the detected event of interest.
