Special issue on video communications, processing, and understanding for third generation surveillance systems
Proceedings of the IEEE · 2001
This Special Issue focuses on the problems of last generation surveillance systems and highlights solutions to these problems that are based on a stronger integration of techniques for multisensor data acquisition, communications and processing. This integration is possible by the common "full digital" perspective on which the techniques used by new systems are based. Next generation surveillance systems can be considered as an emerging application field requiring multidisciplinary expertise going from signal and image processing, to communications and computer vision.
