Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for determining and setting an area to be monitored by a video camera. Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding device and a corresponding camera arrangement.
  • Position refers to the translational coordinates of the mounting location or center of the image recording
  • orientation are the solid angle, pitch, roll and roll angle, which describes the inclination of the camera in the three spatial directions.
  • Position and orientation together describe the pose of the camera.
  • So-called video surveillance systems usually comprise several surveillance cameras, which are to be directed to surveillance areas.
  • Such video surveillance systems can be found, for example, in companies or companies, but also in public places, intersections, railway stations or other buildings.
  • the monitoring areas are to be secured and, if necessary, a tracking of suspicious objects is made possible.
  • a collection of personal data in public areas is subject to strict regulations.
  • surveillance may be carried out under certain conditions if it does not extend to public space, such as a street or a square.
  • public space such as a street or a square.
  • the privacy of the person who is in the image area which is not primarily to be monitored but captured by the camera, for example, a street is protected.
  • Such a function is referred to in today's camera systems as a "Privacy Mask”.
  • a Primary Mask When installing the camera especially in static and dynamic (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras are under control of the corresponding Video image certain areas often selected in the form of polygons, which are then grayed out or rendered illegally in the transmitted and possibly recorded or displayed video image.
  • the masking module for a monitoring system, wherein the monitoring system comprises at least one monitoring camera and is suitable for the observation of monitoring areas with moving objects and arranged. Furthermore, the masking module comprises a selection device for selecting objects, wherein the masking module is designed to output the selection objects masked, which is limited to at least one selected spatial subregion of the monitoring region.
  • a camera surveillance system that includes a camera and a computing unit coupled thereto that is configured to obscure some areas of an image captured by the camera with a privacy mask.
  • a method for determining and setting an area to be monitored by a video camera.
  • a visible area resulting during installation and calibration of the camera and captured by the camera is thereby tailored to the area to be monitored so that the position and orientation of the camera are described with georeferenced coordinates.
  • the georeferenced coordinates of a georeferenced map of the area to be monitored are taken.
  • a mask is automatically determined, which masks on the view area contents of the field of view outside the area to be monitored.
  • Position and orientation of the camera are defined, for example, by a corresponding 3D camera pose.
  • a pose corresponds to a combination of position and orientation of the camera in three-dimensional space.
  • a programming interface API, Application Programming Interface
  • Google Map API® it is conceivable to use Google Map API®.
  • the mask is calculated on the basis of geometrical assumptions calculated visual beams of the camera. With the help of the mask, the contents of the field of view outside the area to be monitored are grayed out and / or removed and / or hidden.
  • the setting of the area to be monitored by the video camera is carried out fully automatically after an initial installation and calibration.
  • the present invention relates to a device for a camera arrangement with at least one camera, wherein the device has at least one module which has access to a georeferenced map and is configured to describe the position and orientation of the camera by means of georeferenced coordinates.
  • the device further comprises a computing unit which is configured to automatically determine a mask based on the georeferenced coordinates, which masks, when imaging on a field of view detected by the camera, contents of the field of view outside a defined area to be monitored.
  • the present invention relates to the use of a method according to the invention and / or a camera arrangement according to the invention for or in a video surveillance system.
  • a schematic representation of a camera arrangement 1 comprises a camera 2 having a first module 4 for recording and digitizing images of an area to be monitored by the camera 2. Another module 6 is used to evaluate images of the camera and to detect moving objects. Furthermore, the camera 2 has a further module 8, which via a wireless or wired interface 10 has a connection to an external memory or to the Internet 11, via which the module 8 has access to a georeferenced map.
  • the georeferenced card can therefore either be stored in an external memory or, for example, be retrievable from an external server via the Internet 11.
  • the interface can be realized via a so-called Transmission Control Protocol Internet Protocol (TCP-IP). However, other network protocols, such as bpsw. UDP, are used.
  • the access to the geo-referenced map makes it possible to describe the position and orientation of the camera 2 by means of georeferenced coordinates.
  • Google-Map API® can be used as a georeferenced map, for example.
  • the description of position and orientation The camera 2 by means of such georeferenced coordinates is unique worldwide and thus allows a clearly defined statement about the position and orientation of the camera. 2
  • the area to be monitored as well as the field of view actually detected by the camera 2 can be determined relatively accurately by means of the georeferenced map so that a mask can be automatically determined by means of a further module 12 on the basis of the geo-referenced coordinates the camera 2 detected area masked contents of the field of view outside a defined area to be monitored.
  • the present embodiment of the device according to the invention is thus arranged and integrated in the camera 2 and has at least the modules 8 and 12.
  • the field of view captured by the camera 2 is privacy-preserving using the position and orientation of the camera, i. H. a 3D camera pose, and using georeferenced maps to actively restrict to the defined area to be monitored, so that content outside the defined area to be monitored can be masked, for example, hidden or grayed out.
  • the position and orientation of the camera is not, as before, on a building or land on which it is installed, even mapped to geographic coordinates.
  • the area to be monitored such as a defined plot or an acceptable surveillance area beyond this, can be defined, for example, as far as the street or one meter into the street.
  • the area detected by the camera can then be grayed out or removed automatically from the area to be monitored. Such an operation can be performed automatically after an initial installation and calibration, and image data can thereby be actively suppressed from the outset.
  • a calibration of the camera is expanded with the aid of the device according to the invention taking into account the georeferenced data mentioned.
  • the defined area to be monitored is already to be marked on a digital, geo-referenced map, so that all contents outside of this area, but adjacent to it, are automatically removed from the field of vision covered by the camera, whether in the form of a graying out or a perfect one Distance.
  • the device according to the invention does not have to, as in FIG. 1 shown, inevitably be integrated into a housing of the camera 2.
  • FIG. 2 An example of a further embodiment of a device according to the invention is shown in FIG FIG. 2 shown.
  • a camera arrangement 15 comprises a first camera 20 and a second camera 30, which are designed to observe a region to be monitored.
  • the camera arrangement 15 comprises a device 25 with at least one module 26, which is designed to determine the respective position and orientation of the first camera 20 and the second camera 30.
  • the cameras 20 and 30 are respectively described with respect to their position and orientation by means of georeferenced coordinates, so that by means of a further computing unit 27 based on the georeferenced coordinates, if necessary, a common for the cameras 20 and 30 mask can be determined automatically when mapping to a
  • the viewing area captured by the two cameras conceals contents of the viewing area outside of a defined area to be monitored.
  • Communication for exchanging information takes place between the first camera 20 and the device 25 via a line 40.
  • the device 25 is connected to the second camera 30 via a further line 41.
  • the device 25 of this embodiment establishes a connection 42 to the Internet 28 in order to be able to provide information about it on a correspondingly stored georeferenced map.
