ARGOS — A VIDEO SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM FOR BOAT TRAFFIC MONITORING IN VENICE

Argos - a Video Surveillance System for boat Traffic Monitoring in Venice

Visual surveillance in dynamic scenes is currently one of the most active research topics in computer vision and many existing applications are available. However, difficulties in realizing effective video surveillance systems that are robust to the many different conditions that arise in real environments, make the actual deployment of such systems very challenging. In this article we present ...

A distributed vision system for boat traffic monitoring in the venice grand canal

In this paper we describe a system for boat traffic monitoring that has been realized for analyzing and computing statistics of trafic in the Grand Canal in Venice. The system is based on a set of survey cells to monitor about 6 Km of canal. Each survey cell contains three cameras oriented in three directions and covering about 250-300 meters of the canal. This paper presents the segmentation a...

Video Surveillance Based Traffic Monitoring System

ABSTARACT :The ability to reliably detect and track moving objects is a challenging task. Interacting with moving bodies and understanding their activities are at the core of many problems in intelligent systems. Some examples of its applications can be: Automated surveillance of venues like airports, railway stations, highways. The software will monitor security cameras and detect suspicious b...

A System for Video Surveillance and Monitoring

The Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and the Sarnoff Corporation are developing a system for autonomous Video Surveillance and Monitoring. The technical objective is to use multiple, cooperative video sensors to provide continuous coverage of people and vehicles in cluttered environments. This paper presents an overview of the system and significant results achieved to date.
