ESTIMATING MOTION OF AN EVENT CAPTURED USING A DIGITAL VIDEO CAMERA

摘要

An event aware video system (EAVS) is to capture video frames during a first time period and process events in the video frames before transferring the processed data to a central computing system. The EAVS may establish a present no-event frame from the video frames by marking the last frame as the present no-event frame if the difference between adjacent pair of video frames is less than a threshold value. The EAVS may establish an event frame, wherein a present frame captured after establishing the no-event frame is marked as the event frame if the difference between the present frame and a previous frame is greater than the threshold value. The EAVS may provide event information including motion vectors to a central computing system by performing one-dimensional search on a moving object of the event frame, wherein the motion vectors may represent displacement of objects moving within the moving object.
