Abstract

Recent advances in sensing and computing technologies have inspired a new generation of data analysis and visualization systems for video surveillance applications. We present a novel visualization system for video surveillance based on an Augmented Virtual Environment (AVE) that fuses dynamic imagery with 3D models in a real-time display to help observers comprehend multiple streams of temporal data and imagery from arbitrary views of the scene. This paper focuses on our recent technical extensions to our AVE system, including moving object detection, tracking, and 3D display for effective dynamic event comprehension and situational awareness. Moving objects are detected and tracked in video sequences and visualized as pseudo-3D elements in the AVE scene display in real-time. We show results that illustrate the utility and benefits of these new capabilities.
