  • High quality Lightning resilient segmentation system using active background
    Publication number: 20170287140
    Abstract: The present invention refers to the field of video processing, and, in particular, to a system and a method for achieving high quality foreground segmentation using an active background. The present invention is embodied in a system and a method capable of achieving high quality foreground segmentation using an active background, wherein foreground is any object or person located between a camera and a background. The system is comprising an active background, one or several multispectral cameras, a hardware synchronizer, an invisible light driver and a main computer. The main features of the system consist of one or several of the following: a. A sub-system acquiring reference images of the active background. b. A sub-system acquiring each video frame images. c. A sub-system performing real-time frame processing d. A sub-system performing noise reduction.
