Multi sensor technologies augmenting video surveillance: Security and data fusion aspects
S. Sutor, Radwa Reda · 2008
Based on the success of intelligent video surveillance systems, especially in the field of security, scalability and performance, the corresponding architecture and concept is extended to involve different types of sensors in addition to visual sensors. In this work an analytical study of the whole spectrum of sensor technologies and their characteristics and performance recommendation is presented. Subsequently the multi-sensor approach is discussed with the goal of augmentation of intelligent video surveillance systems. Utilizing multi-sensor technologies will require massive data fusion and bring new challenges not only in fusion but also security.
