Intelligent Surveillance Using an Omnidirectional CCD Camera

Video surveillance, object tracking and activity monitoring are some of the important issues for a homecare robotic system. In this work, an omnidirectional video camera is adopted to provide a 360 degree view angle of the indoor scene in a single image. Some basic functions for smart living and elderly care, such as motion detection, object tracking and target behavior analysis, are implemente...

CCD Camera Gain Measurement

The gain of a CCD camera is the conversion between the number of electrons ("e-") recorded by the CCD and the number of digital units ("counts") contained in the CCD image. It is useful to know this conversion for evaluating the performance of the CCD camera. Since quantities in the CCD image can only be measured in units of counts, knowing the gain permits the calculation of quantities such as...

Multispectral synthesis of daylight using a commercial digital CCD camera.

Performance of multispectral devices in recovering spectral data has been intensively investigated in some applications, as in spectral characterization of art paintings, but has received little attention in the context of spectral characterization of natural illumination. This study investigated the quality of the spectral estimation of daylight-type illuminants using a commercial digital CCD ...

Using a trichromatic CCD camera for spectral skylight estimation.

In a previous work [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 24, 942-956 (2007)] we showed how to design an optimum multispectral system aimed at spectral recovery of skylight. Since high-resolution multispectral images of skylight could be interesting for many scientific disciplines, here we also propose a nonoptimum but much cheaper and faster approach to achieve this goal by using a trichromatic RGB charge-couple...
