Abstract: A detection system that uses a plurality of input devices with different sensitive wavelengths as image and signal acquisition devices for detecting an intruding object and which performs coordinated processing on at least two or more pieces of information to avoid issuing false alarms during an intruding object detection. Based on the position or size of an object detected by processing an input from one of the input devices, an area range in which to process an input from other input devices is defined. According to one or more of processing results, a check is made as to the presence or absence of an intruding object.

Abstract: An intruding object detection system including a first drive unit for moving an image pickup unit in a pan direction, a second drive unit for moving the pickup unit in a tilt direction, a third drive unit for moving the pickup unit to zoom in and out, and a control unit for detecting an image of a target object in a video signal supplied from the pickup unit, and controlling the first and second drive units to move the pickup unit in the pan and tilt directions to place the image of the target object to a center of a video screen in accordance with movement and change of the target object, and cause the third drive unit to zoom in or out so that the image of the target object is permitted to be maintained at a predetermined size.
