Advanced Video-Based Surveillance Systems

Abstract

Over the last few years, employment of visual sensoriality in automated surveillance systems has enjoyed a growing popularity, oftentimes yielding solutions able to compete with those based on more traditional sensors, such as photocells or infrareds. In some application fields (e.g., people identification), research outcomes are now sufficiently mature to be exploited commercially [1]; in others, such as environment control, people counting [2], traffic [3] or crowd monitoring [4], very interesting results have been obtained in fairly general, real-world situations.
