Abstract: The present invention describes a system and method for surveillance cameras that maintain proper mapping of a mapped region of interest with an imaged region of interest based on feedback received regarding the current orientation of a surveillance camera. The system or method first determines the location of the imaged region of interest within the surveillance camera's imaged current field of view based on mechanical or imaged feedback, or a combination of both. The system or method then remaps the mapped region of interest within the surveillance camera's imaged current field of view such that the mapped region of interest is coextensive with the imaged region of interest.

Abstract: An elevator control system (24) provides elevator dispatch and door control based on passenger data received from a video monitoring system. The video monitoring system includes a video processor (16) connected to receive video input from at least one video camera (12). The video processor (16) tracks objects located within the field of view of the video camera, and calculates passenger data parameters associated with each tracked object. The elevator controller (24) provides elevator dispatch (26), door control (28), and security functions (30) based in part on passenger data provided by the video processor (16). The security functions may also be based in part on data from access control systems (14).

Abstract: A system for automatically determining video quality receives video input from one or more surveillance cameras (16a, 16b . . . 16N), and based on the received input calculates a number of video quality metrics (40). The video quality metrics are fused together (42), and provided to decision logic (44), which determines, based on the fused video quality metrics, the video quality provided by the one or more surveillance cameras (16a, 16b . . . 16N). The determination is provided to a monitoring station (24).
