Conception and development of a video surveillance system for detecting, tracking and profile analysis of a person

Video surveillance is an important research area in the commercial sector as well. Many architecture of video surveillance systems are used increasingly in security systems and with good reason. Generally, with a video surveillance system, we are in the picture 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Actually, with the rapid development of hardware and software video surveillance systems, it is economically and technically feasible to build video surveillance system architecture and tailored to a specific need. Our proposed architecture software helps to: detect, track a moving person in video sequence and helps to specify his profile when is entering in a special region from controlled area. Especially, this proposed system triggers an alarm when the monitored person enters in the prohibited area or when it exceeds a lapse of time in this region. This developed system can be used for tracking people in real time and can be adapted to extract frames from the video sequence at different times and it can process the detection process, track and it can analyze the profile of the moving person in each time. © 2013 IEEE.
