Description

Camera cruising method, electronic device and storage medium

Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of video surveillance, and in particular, to a camera method, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium.

Background

Along with the development of society, people's safety awareness is higher and higher. In response to the increasing security awareness of people, monitoring devices (cameras) are widely distributed in required areas to monitor the required areas. The demand area is as small as a private room and as large as a public area (e.g., square, intersection, mall).

The existing method is to use a multi-channel camera to cruise in a demand area so as to realize all-round monitoring of the demand area. However, existing cruise does not make efficient use of the multiple channels of the camera.

Disclosure of Invention

In order to solve the technical problem, the application adopts a technical scheme that: a method of camera navigation is provided, the camera having a plurality of channels. The method comprises the following steps: creating at least one cruise package, each cruise package involving at least two channels; configuring a corresponding cruise package for each cruise time period; and controlling the camera to cruise according to the corresponding cruise packages in different cruise time periods.

In order to solve the above technical problem, another technical solution adopted by the present application is: an electronic device is provided, which comprises a processor and a memory connected with the processor, wherein the memory stores program instructions; the processor is configured to execute the program instructions stored by the memory to implement the above-described method.

In order to solve the above technical problem, the present application adopts another technical solution: there is provided a computer readable storage medium storing program instructions that when executed are capable of implementing the above method.

Through the mode, in order to realize cruising, the scheme is that the cruising package is created, and the corresponding cruising packages are configured for different time periods, so that the cruising package whole corresponding to each cruising time period can be regarded as a cruising scheme of all channels. Because the cruise scheme is obtained by combining the basic schemes not based on the channels, the intelligent rules corresponding to different channels in different cruise packages are variable, the flexibility of the configuration process is improved, and therefore all the channels of the camera in the cruise process can be effectively utilized.

In addition, the cruise schemes are configured in different cruise time periods, and the required configuration times are equal to the number of the cruise time periods; in the conventional way of configuring the cruise solutions in units of channels (the cruise solutions corresponding to the channels are obtained by combining the basic solutions of each channel), the configuration time is the number of cruise time periods. Therefore, the method provided by the application can reduce the configuration times, simplify the configuration process and be suitable for any scene (including a wide/complex scene with a large number of required channels).

Thus, a feature defined as "first," "second," or "third" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the feature. In the description of the present application, "plurality" means at least two, e.g., two, three, etc., unless explicitly specifically limited otherwise.

Reference herein to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearances of the phrase in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are separate or alternative embodiments mutually exclusive of other embodiments. Those skilled in the art will explicitly and implicitly appreciate that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments without conflict.

For convenience of understanding, before describing the camera cruising method provided by the present application, the conventional method will be described by taking a plurality of channels of a camera including a fixed focus channel and a PTZ channel as an example.

1) A base plan is created for each channel.

First, for PTZ channels: the cruise sites are known. And setting the corresponding intelligent rule at each cruise point, namely binding the PTZ channel, the cruise point and the intelligent rule to obtain (a1i, bj, c1 k). Where a1i is the ith PTZ channel, b represents the jth cruise point, and c1k represents the kth intelligent rule. (a1i, bj, c1k) can be considered as a basic solution of a1 i. The basic scheme for multiple PTZ channels can be presented as table 1 below:

Second, for the fixed focus channel: and setting the corresponding intelligent rule, namely binding the fixed focus channel with the intelligent rule to obtain (a2i, c2 k). Where a2i is the ith fixed focus channel and c2k represents the kth intelligent rule. (a2i, c2k) can be considered as a basic solution for a2 i. The basic scheme for multiple prime paths can be presented as table 2 below:

TABLE 2

Fixed focus channel 1	Rule J
		Fixed focus channel 2	Rule K
……	……
		Fixed focus channel N	Rule L

2) The cruise solution is configured based on a channel-based base solution.

First, for the PTZ channel, some or all of its basic solutions may be selected and combined to obtain its cruise solution. For example, the cruise schedule for PTZ channel 1 is obtained as in table 3 below, the cruise schedule for PTZ channel 2 is obtained as in table 4 below, and the cruise schedule for PTZ channel N is obtained as in table 5 below:

TABLE 3

00:00～1:00	2:00～3:00	3:00～4：00	……	21:00～22:00	22:00～23:00
						Point location 1	Point location 2	Point location 1	……	Point location N	Point location 3
Rule A	Rule B	Rule A	……	Rule N	Rule C

TABLE 4

00:00～1:00	2:00～3:00	3:00～4：00	……	21:00～22:00	22:00～23:00
						Point location 3	Point location 1	Point location 2	……	Point location N-1	Point location 1
Rule E	Rule D	Rule F	……	Rule N +1	Rule D

TABLE 5

00:00～1:00	2:00～3:00	3:00～4：00	……	21:00～22:00	22:00～23:00
						Point location 2	Point location 3	Point location 1	……	Point location 3	Point location 2
Rule Y	Rule Z	Rule X	……	Rule Z	Rule Y

The points (1-2-1- … -N-3) shown in Table 3 can be regarded as the cruising path of the PTZ channel 1, the points (3-1-2- … -N-1) shown in Table 4 can be regarded as the cruising path of the PTZ channel 2, and the points (2-3-1- … -3-2) shown in Table 5 can be regarded as the cruising path of the PTZ channel N. As can be seen from tables 3-5, the same cruise point in the cruise route may appear many times or only once.

Moreover, through long-term research by the inventor of the application, the intelligent rules corresponding to the cruise points in the basic scheme of the PTZ channel are fixed, so that the intelligent rules corresponding to the same cruise point cannot be changed in the cruise scheme formed by combining the basic schemes regardless of the change of the cruise time period. In other words, in the cruise scheme of the PTZ channel, the intelligent rules corresponding to the same cruise point are fixed.

Secondly, because the position of the fixed focus channel is fixed, the scheme adopted by the fixed focus channel is the only basic scheme in the cruising process of the camera. And because the corresponding intelligent rules of the unique basic scheme are the same under different cruising periods, the method is not true cruising during the cruising process of the camera.

In addition, the cruise packages are required to be configured for each channel, and the required configuration times are PTZ channel number and cruise time period number. Under the condition of monitoring a wide view and a complex scene, the number of channels is large, so that the number of times of configuration is large, and the configuration is complex and time-consuming.

For the explanation of the above contents (e.g. intelligent rules, channels), please refer to the description of the following embodiments, which are not repeated herein.

In order to make the cruising/configuration process more flexible, namely the intelligent rules of the same cruising point at different cruising time periods are variable, c1k in (a1i, bj, c1k) is variable; or the intelligent rules corresponding to the same fixed-focus channel in different cruising time periods are variable, and the variable c2k in (a2i, c2k) is shown, so that a plurality of channels of the camera are effectively utilized in the cruising process, and the scheme provided by the application is as follows:

fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of an embodiment of a camera cruising method according to the present application. It should be noted that, if the result is substantially the same, the flow sequence shown in fig. 1 is not limited in this embodiment. As shown in fig. 1, the present embodiment may include:

s11: at least one cruise package is created.

Each cruise package involves at least two channels.

The channels referred to herein may also be referred to as cameras, which are used to acquire video data of a monitorable area. The channels involved in the different cruise packages may or may not be fully repeated, partially repeated. The camera is a multi-view camera which is provided with a plurality of channels, and the monitorable areas of the plurality of channels can cover the whole monitoring area. And generally speaking, in order for the channels of the camera to be effectively utilized, all of the channels it has need to participate in the cruise process. The channels that all cruise packages created can relate to should include all channels of the camera.

The camera has a plurality of channels including a PTZ channel and/or a non-PTZ channel (fixed focus channel).

Wherein the position of the fixed focus channel is fixed, so that the monitoring area is fixed. If the cruise package relates to a fixed focus channel, a corresponding intelligent (AI) rule needs to be set for the fixed focus channel in the process of creating the cruise package. The intelligent rules referred to herein may include target recognition (e.g., vehicle recognition, pedestrian recognition), target tracking, and the like. Referring to fig. 2 in combination, in this case, S11 may include the following sub-steps:

s111: a fixed focus channel is selected from the plurality of channels.

S112: and setting a corresponding intelligent rule for the selected fixed focus channel.

S112 may be regarded as a process of binding the fixed focus channel with the intelligent rule. In different cruise packages, the intelligent rules corresponding to the fixed focus channels can be the same or different. Therefore, the mode of subsequently configuring the cruise packages in the cruise time periods can enable the intelligent rules corresponding to the same fixed-focus channel in different cruise time periods to be variable, namely c2k in different cruise packages (a2i, c2k) to be variable.

In which the PTZ channel can move in three directions of P, T and Z, P for horizontal direction, T for vertical direction and Z for depth direction (zoom), so its monitorable area is variable. If the cruise package relates to a PTZ channel, a corresponding cruise point position needs to be set for the PTZ channel in the process of creating the cruise package. And a corresponding intelligent rule is required to be set for each cruise point. Referring to fig. 3 in combination, in this case, S11 may include the following sub-steps:

s113: a PTZ channel is selected from a plurality of channels.

S114: and setting a corresponding cruise point position for the selected PTZ channel.

One cruise point represents a position to cruise, which may be denoted as (P, T, Z). In different cruise packages, the cruise point positions corresponding to the same PTZ channel can be the same or different.

S115: and setting a corresponding intelligent rule for the cruising point position.

S114-S115 can be regarded as a process for binding the PTZ channel, the cruise point location and the intelligent rule.

In different cruise packages, the intelligent rules corresponding to the same cruise point location (i.e., the bound pair of PTZ channel and cruise point location) under the same PTZ channel may be the same or different. Therefore, the mode that the cruise packages are configured in the cruise time periods subsequently can enable the intelligent rules corresponding to the same cruise point under the same PTZ channel in different cruise time periods to be variable. I.e., c1k is variable in different cruise packages (a1i, bj, c1 k).

The created cruise packages (packages 1 to 3) are explained with reference to fig. 4 to 6. As shown in FIGS. 4-6, packages 1-3 all relate to channels 0-N.

The cruise point positions of a channel 0(PTZ channel) in packages 1-3 are respectively a point position 1, a point position 1 and a point position 2, and the corresponding intelligent rules of the point position 1 under the channel 0 in the packages 1-2 are respectively a rule A and a rule E (variable); the intelligent rules corresponding to the channel 1 (fixed focus channel) in the package 1-3 are rule B, rule F and rule K (variable); … are provided.

S12: and configuring a corresponding cruise package for each cruise time period.

The whole cruise package corresponding to each cruise time period can be regarded as a cruise scheme of all channels. The cruise packages configured for different cruise periods may be the same or different. It will be appreciated that if a single cruise package involves all of the lanes, the single cruise package may be configured for multiple or all of the cruise periods. The method for configuring the same cruise package for different cruise time periods can reduce time consumption in the configuration process and has higher practicability.

The results of the configuration are illustrated below in connection with tables 6 and 7.

Wherein the ratio is 00: 00-1: 00 and 3: 00-4: the cruise package for the 00 configuration is the same.

Because the cruise packages are configured in different cruise time periods, the corresponding intelligent rules of the fixed focus channels in different cruise packages are variable, and the corresponding intelligent rules of the same cruise point under the same PTZ channel in different cruise packages are also variable. Therefore, in the subsequent cruising process, the intelligent rules corresponding to the same cruising point under the same fixed-focus channel and the same PTZ channel in different cruising time periods are all variable.

S13: and controlling the camera to cruise according to the corresponding cruise packages in different cruise time periods.

If the cruise package involves a fixed-focus channel, the cruise package includes (a2i, c2k), and as further shown in fig. 7, S13 may include the following sub-steps:

s131: and determining a fixed focus channel related to the cruise package.

I.e., determine a2 i.

S132: and controlling the fixed focus channel to acquire first video data.

The fixed focus channel may acquire the first video data at its fixed position.

S133: and analyzing the first video data by using an intelligent rule corresponding to the fixed focus channel.

I.e. the first video data is analyzed with c2k to determine the target related situation of the monitorable area corresponding to the fixed-focus channel. For example, c2k is object detection and object recognition, object detection may be performed on the first video data to determine whether an object is present; the target is identified in the presence of the target to determine the identity of the target.

If the cruise package involves a PTZ channel, then the cruise package includes (a1i, bj, c1k), and as further shown in FIG. 8, S13 may include the sub-steps of:

s134: and determining the PTZ channel involved in the cruise package.

I.e., determine a1 i.

S135: and controlling the PTZ channel to move to the corresponding cruise point position.

I.e., control a1i to move to bj.

S136: and controlling the PTZ channel to acquire the second video data.

S137: and analyzing the second video data by using the intelligent rule corresponding to the cruise point position.

I.e. the second video data is analyzed with c1k to determine the target related situation of the corresponding monitorable area of the PTZ channel. For example, c1k is target tracking, and the second video data may be subjected to target tracking to determine the action track of the target.

In the above embodiment, in order to realize cruising, the scheme adopted in the present application is to create a cruising package, and configure corresponding cruising packages for different time periods, so that the whole cruising package corresponding to each cruising time period can be regarded as a cruising scheme for all channels. Because the cruise scheme is obtained by combining the basic schemes not based on the channels, the intelligent rules corresponding to different channels in different cruise packages are variable, the flexibility of the configuration process is improved, and therefore all the channels of the camera in the cruise process can be effectively utilized.

In addition, it is considered that the first video data acquired by the fixed focus channel may not clearly express the target information, and the accuracy of subsequent analysis is affected. Therefore, the scheme provided by the application is as follows:

in a specific embodiment, in the process of creating the cruise package, the relationship between the PTZ channel and the fixed focus channel in the same cruise package category is further constrained, so that the PTZ channel and the fixed focus channel can work cooperatively in the cruise process.

The cooperative work means that when the first video data acquired by the fixed-focus channel indicates that a target exists and target information cannot be clearly expressed, the PTZ channel associated with the fixed-focus channel is indicated to move to the position of the fixed-focus channel to acquire second video data, and further, the second video data can be analyzed. The accuracy of the analysis results can be improved by the cooperative work.

In this case, the above S11 may include: and establishing association for a fixed focus channel and a PTZ channel related to the same cruise package.

The association establishment can be for partial or fixed focus channels, partial or all PTZ channels in the same cruise package, and can be specifically determined according to requirements. For example, if one of the 3 fixed focus channels involved in the cruise package has the above-mentioned defect, then the association may be established only for the fixed focus channel having the above-mentioned defect and the PTZ channel.

The PTZ channel required to be associated with the fixed-focus channel can be selected at will, and the PTZ channel can also be selected according to the cruise point position corresponding to the PTZ channel in the cruise package. For example, the PTZ channel with the corresponding cruise point position closest to the fixed position of the fixed-focus channel is selected to shorten the time for the PTZ channel to respond to the cooperative work.

In essence of cooperative work, the PTZ channel is used to reacquire and analyze the second video data in the monitorable area of the fixed focus channel, so that the associated fixed focus channel and the PTZ channel have the same corresponding intelligent rule at least in part, and the cooperative work can be ensured to be normally performed. That is, c2k in (a2i, c2k) and corresponding (a1i, bj, c1k) is at least partially identical to c1 k.

The intelligent rule corresponding to each channel may be one or a group (combination of a plurality of) of intelligent rules. When one channel corresponds to the PTZ channel, the associated fixed focus channel has the same intelligent rule with the PTZ channel; when corresponding to a group, the associated fixed focus channel is the same as at least one of the intelligent rules corresponding to the PTZ channel.

For example, if the fixed focus channel needs to identify the target in the monitorable area, the intelligent rule corresponding to the PTZ channel cooperating with the fixed focus channel should include the target identification, so that the cooperative operation can be guaranteed to be normally performed.

In another embodiment, if there is a need for a fixed focus channel to work in concert during cruise, a PTZ channel that can participate in the cooperation is selected using a particular algorithm. The PTZ channels capable of participating in the cooperative work may be PTZ channels with no target (idle state) in the corresponding monitorable area, PTZ channels with the currently located cruise point closest to the fixed position of the fixed-focus channel, and the like. Therefore, the PTZ channel and the fixed focus channel selected in the cruising process can work cooperatively.
