Abstract
A multi-camera system was proposed for tracking persons using PC controlled cameras connected with network. In the system, observed area was freely expanded by connecting PC controlled cameras whose FOVs were overlapped with those of the neighboring. The overlapping area was used for relaying the person information among neighboring cameras. The person information was collected by using a server-client protocol. Each client PC extracts walking persons by using Background Difference. Validity of the proposed system was confirmed by numerical simulation.
