Abstract

In this paper we discuss the intelligent or smart camera based systems for capturing visual contextual information at multiple levels of information abstraction. A distributed video array, with multiple omnidirectional and rectilinear cameras, is used to acquire visual information. System architecture as well as 3D tracking and human identification modules are described. Examples of the use of distributed video arrays in indoor, outdoor, and mobile environments are presented.
