Abstract
A monitoring apparatus obtains image data captured by an image capturing apparatus, generates a background image based on the image data, performs detection processing including detection of a moving object using the image data and the background image, and sets a continuing time until the detected moving object comes to rest and is then handled as a background based on a condition concerning detection processing.
Claims12
A monitoring apparatus comprising:
- an obtaining unit configured to obtain image data captured by an image capturing apparatus;
- a generation unit configured to generate a background image based on the image data;
- a detection unit configured to perform detection processing including detection of a moving object using the image data and the background image;
- and
- a setting unit configured to set a continuing time until the moving object detected by the detection unit comes to rest and is then handled as a background based on a condition concerning detection by the detection unit.
A monitoring system including a monitoring apparatus and an image capturing apparatus,
- wherein the monitoring apparatus comprises:
- an obtaining unit configured to obtain image data captured by an image capturing apparatus;
- a generation unit configured to generate a background image based on the image data;
- a detection unit configured to perform detection processing including detection of a moving object using the image data and the background image;
- and
- a setting unit configured to set a continuing time until the moving object detected by the detection unit comes to rest and is then handled as a background based on a condition concerning detection by the detection unit.
A method of controlling a monitoring apparatus including an obtaining unit configured to obtain image data captured by an image capturing apparatus, a generation unit configured to generate a background image based on the image data, and a detection unit configured to perform detection processing including detection of a moving object using the image data and the background image, the method comprising:
- setting a continuing time until the moving object detected by the detection unit comes to rest and is then handled as a background based on a condition concerning detection by the detection unit.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program configured to cause a computer provided in a monitoring apparatus including an obtaining unit configured to obtain image data captured by an image capturing apparatus, a generation unit configured to generate a background image based on the image data, and a detection unit configured to perform detection processing including detection of a moving object using the image data and the background image to set a continuing time until the moving object detected by the detection unit comes to rest and is then handled as a background based on a condition concerning detection by the detection unit.
