Target monitoring method, camera, controller and target monitoring system

Abstract

The invention discloses a target monitoring method, a camera, a controller and a target monitoring system. The target monitoring system comprises a first camera and a second camera; the field of vision of the first camera and the field of vision of the second camera have an overlapping area. The target monitoring method includes the following steps that: when the first camera is taken as a currentprimary monitoring camera, the target monitoring system obtains the location information of a target to be tracked in a first monitoring picture, wherein the first monitoring picture is captured by the first camera; the target monitoring system determines whether the location of the target in the first monitoring picture is within the overlapping area according to the location information of thetarget in the first monitoring picture, wherein the overlapping area is the overlapping range of the field of vision of the first camera and the field of vision of the second camera; and if the location of the target in the first monitoring picture is within the overlapping area, the target monitoring system switches in the second camera as the current primary monitoring camera.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of monitoring, and in particular, relate to a target monitoring method, a camera, a controller and a target monitoring system. Background technique [0002] In the current wide-area video surveillance system, by arranging multiple cameras, it is possible to observe scenes from multiple angles and a wide range and track moving targets. In this monitoring system, the entire monitoring scene is usually divided into several independent areas, and each camera independently monitors an area, locates the target when the target appears, and simultaneously tracks and detects it, and then transmits the monitoring record to The server, the server analyzes the monitoring records, and then uniformly deploys each camera to monitor the target collaboratively. [0003] In the above-mentioned monitoring system, when the moving target is continuously tracked, since each camera monitors its own area ...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the above-mentioned monitoring system, when the moving target is continuously tracked, since each camera monitors its own area independently, the server performs unified monitoring and dispatching between each camera, and each camera must use the target's characteristic information in its own In order to determine the location of the target by self-detection in the monitoring area, this will lead to a long detection time for each camera and low efficiency of tracking the target
