Book Description

May 11, 2009
Automated Surveillance A Guide to Intelligent Video Analytics comprehensively explains the concepts of Video Analytics technology in a way that provides the uninitiated reader with a clear understanding of its value to today s society. In addition to explaining the technology behind image based analysis, the book discusses its use in various industry applications, each with its specific requirements. It explains how to analyse risk and how to assess the costs and benefits for a security project to ensure an effective purchasing process. Providing detailed guidelines on the practical aspects of implementation such as the correct placement of cameras as well as on the theory on how the technology works, the book constitutes the first comprehensive guide on this new art of Intelligent Surveillance. The book has been written so that for the most part, once the initial concepts have been understood, each chapter stands on its own and can be read independently. The intent was to enable readers to browse through the book and use it as a reference. For instance, if your interest is in Understanding Risk, you can read the chapter on that subject without having read the chapters on how to calculate the storage requirement.

Editorial Reviews

Review

The authors created a work of art, comprehensively explaining not only the concepts of intelligent video analysis itself, but also all the stages necessary for the process. Automated Surveillance is dedicated to a vast scope of readers, not only specialists in the field. In my opinion, this book is a must have for anybody, who is, or is planning to deal with video analysis, let it be an installer, distributor, or user --Maciej Pas, CPS International

One of the biggest challenges facing the surveillance industry has been the lack of knowledge on the possibilities and limitations in the emerging field of video analysis. This book, Automated Surveillance - A Guide to Intelligent Video Analysis, provides an insight into the benefits and usage of the new technology of video based intelligent surveillance --Security World Hotel
