 Introduction
• Fast development in the technology has increased the risk
of intrusion.

• The majority of organization and administrations are

making use of such security systems with the intenstion to
save their buisness as well as property from terrorists and
illegal entry.

• Nowadays, the security systems have become much more

advanced, reasonable smaller and straight forward
 What is video surveillance?

• Present Implementations?
o Human detection systems.
o vehicle monitoring systems.

• Advantages of video surveillance?

o Keep track of information video data for future use.
o Helpful in identifying people in the crime scenes etc..

• Disadvantages of the present system?

o It’s difficult to maintain heavy amount of raw video data
o Human interaction.
o Require higher bandwidth for transmitting the visual data.
 Video surveillance in the context of
Computer Vision
• Detection and tracking of moving objects are the important
tasks of the computer vision.
• The video surveillance systems not only need to track the
moving objects but also interpret their patterns of behaviours.
This means solving the information and integration the
pattern.

• Advantages
o Minimizes the user interaction.
o Minimizes the cost and time.
 Need for Traffic Monitoring

• To reduce the traffic

congestion on highways

• Reduce the road accidents

• Identifying suspicious vehicles. Etc..,

 Traffic Monitoring in Computer Vision
Taking some intelligent actions based on the
conditions.

• Traffic scene analysis in 3 categories.

o A strait forward vehicle detection and
counting system .
o Congestion monitoring and traffic scene
analysis.
o Vehicle classification and tracking systems
which involve much more detailed scene
traffic analysis.
A Traffic Monitoring System
 Object tracking strategies (I)

• Background subtraction
o Difference between the
current image and the
reference background
image in a pixel by pixel
fashion.
o Sensitive to the
background changes
 Object tracking strategies (II)

• Optical flow
o It’s used to detect
independently moving
objects in presence of
camera.
o Requires a specialized Optical flow of moving objects
hardware to
implement.
 Vehicle detection techniques

• Model based detection

• Region based detection

 Vehicle detection technique (I)

• Model based Tracking

o The emphasis is on recovering
trajectories and models with
high accuracy for a small
number of vehicles.
o The most serious weakness of
this approach is the reliance on
detailed geometric object
models.
Disadvantage
o It is unrealistic to expect
detailed models for all vehicles
that could be found on the
roadway
 Vehicle detection technique (II)

• Region based tracking

o It detects each vehicle using
a cross correlation function.
o Vehicle detection based on
back ground subtraction.

Disadvantage
o Difficult to detect the
vehicles under congested
traffic, because vehicles
partly stop with one another

Potential segmentation
problem
 Conclusion & Future Work

• The real time traffic surveillance system is

still under research due to the background
maintenance problem and occlusion.

• Better Background maintenance

• Solving occlusion problem
