Key elements/components of our Panoptic C-Thru surveillance system include:
- Concept of real time (stereoscopic) display of video-sprites of people and vehicles inside and among user navigable "transparent" 3D wire frames of building(s); building complexes or battlefield areas.
- Usage of panoramic video imaging systems (instead of classic cameras)
- Rapid production of 3D model of site/campus through reverse "volumetric painting" using DV camcorder-based capture system
- Real-time dynamic fusion of panoramic video streams into 3D model of site/campus/battlefield.
- Real-time extraction of video imagery of moving and semi-static objects (people, vehicles, animals etc.) with live transposition into 3D scenes.
- Live video-based 3D tracking of moving objects within designated security-sensitive areas.
- Autostereoscopic display for added accuracy of depth perception by surveillance agent.
- Intuitive 3D user-interface for empowered analysis and management of security threats or breaches, or battlefield situations (including 3C activities)
- Optimized detection & remediation of surveillance coverage blind spots
- Real-time dynamic fusion of video data from mobile cameras (on vehicles (e.g. security patrols or battlefield reconnaissance vehicles); helmet mounted; on micro-UAVs or small helium blimps;)
- Integrated display of results from triangulation based gunshot locator into the 3D model.
- Alternative panoptic modes for single screen video only panoptic surveillance leveraging latent capacity of human brain for massively parallel processing of defocused viewing combined with peripheral field-of-view imagery.
- Integrated on going or on demand identification through facial recognition against customer definable database of security sensitive persons.
- Integration and correlation of multiple events from physical security monitoring systems.
- Artificially Intelligent suspicious activity detector (using pattern recognition and possibly also neural nets): detects and signals for analysis by human operator. Potential security or safety indicative events including assembly of groups larger than X people; loitering; running; stressed shouting; suspect clothing (balaclavas, squad-type clothing, bullet-proof vests) or suspect items hidden under clothing; nervousness of individuals and groups; fires; smoke and gasses; explosions etc.
