OpenCV and TYZX: Video Surveillance for Tracking.

DE2008942060

Publication Date	2008
Personal Author	Chu, E.; Spencer, A.; He, J.
Page Count	33
Abstract	As part of the National Security Engineering Institute (NSEI) project, several sensors were developed in conjunction with an assessment algorithm. A camera system was developed in-house to track the locations of personnel within a secure room. In addition, a commercial, off-the-shelf (COTS) tracking system developed by TYZX was examined. TYZX is a Bay Area start-up that has developed its own tracking hardware and software which we use as COTS support for robust tracking. This report discusses the pros and cons of each camera system, how they work, a proposed data fusion method, and some visual results.
