Meteor recording, detection, and analysis is one of the traditional topics of astronomy. This paper deals with fast‐tracking of faint meteors and meteor showers in video sequences with high frame rates. Since meteors are fast optical events, the utilization of cameras with high frame rates and short exposure times is the standard technique of meteor tracks capture. Low efficiency of such camera systems...
Recently, High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC or H.265) standard becomes to be widely applied and exploited. This compression standard can achieve very low video bitrates and allow deployment of mobile security cameras with wireless data transmission. The paper deals with subjective evaluation and assessment of the above mentioned standard and its impact on reliability and efficiency of person identification...
In this paper, the impact of the degree of compression by High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) on observers ability of detecting certain events in videos obtained by outdoor CCTV cameras is studied. This was done by extensive subjective testing. The testing was performed also for H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10 AVC compression on similar bitrates and the capabilities of detection were compared and thus the superiority...
Object detecting and camera tracking in a large range of distances is still important problem in the research field of security and more recently also in the research field of assistive technologies too, when it is necessary to monitor intruders in the protected perimeter or elderly and disabled people both in hospital and at home. This paper discusses the design of an automatic stereoscopic video...
This paper studies the security image quality attained in streaming video over wireless networks under different packet error models. Wireless video sensor networks are becoming common place due to increasing crime rates and growing terrorist activities. A crucial requirement for video surveillance technology especially for real-time monitoring is that the video quality must not fall below a certain...
This paper is devoted to noise suppression in systems for double station observation of meteors, nowadays known as MAIA (Meteor Automatic Imager and Analyzer). The noise analysis based on acquisition of testing video sequences at different lighting conditions and their statistical evaluation were described in our previous paper. The measurement showed that the type of noise generated by the system...
This paper deals with the design and implementation of the device aimed at navigation of visually impaired people. First part of the article presents a review of existing assistance devices for visually impaired, in the second part follows description of the system using low-cost input and output personal computer interfaces (joystick, video grabbers, NVIDIA 3D Vision) and description of design of...
In this paper we present current progress in development of new observational instruments for the double station video experiment. The Meteor Automatic Imager and Analyser (MAIA) system is based on digital monochrome camera JAI CM-040 and well proved image intensifier XX1332. Both the observations as well as the data processing will be fully automatic. We are expecting the recorded data of better...
