  • Patent number: 11367349
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of detecting a vehicle speed. The method includes receiving a first vehicle image photographed by a camera at a first time; identifying an area occupied by the license plate from the first vehicle image and extracting a first number; receiving a second vehicle image photographed by the camera at a second time; identifying an area occupied by the license plate from the second vehicle image and extracting a second number; comparing the first number with the second number to determine whether the first number is equal to the second number; deciding an actual size of the number of plate; calculating a distance between the vehicle and the camera at first and second times; and calculating a vehicle speed.

  • Publication number: 20040218090
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for operating a day and night mode of a monitoring camera by measuring a brightness in a no video signal interval which are implemented in a such a manner that when a control unit detects a non video signal interval from a video signal from a camera which photographs a photographing object zone, a state of the current lighting unit is set to an off state, and a measuring signal for operating a detection unit is outputted, and a brightness of the current photographing object is measured based on the detection signal from the detection unit, and it is judged whether the brightness of the current photographing object is above a critical value that it is not needed to operate the lighting, and when the brightness of the same is above a critical value, the mode is set to a day mode, and a control signal is generated for maintaining the current off state of the lighting unit and is outputted to the lighting unit, and when the brightness of the same is below a
