Software filters visual information before it is presented.April 5, 2007 -
Designed to help CCTV cameras provide visual overview rather than confusing video overload, GeViScope video analysis software spots range of different types of objects and behaviors that might require attention or investigation. Triggered alerts can automatically activate recording from particular cameras, switch pictures of event to another viewer station, trigger alarm, bring PTZ and/or dome systems into preset positions, and switch user interface to relevant site plan.

GeViScope with Aimetis for an Overview Not an Overload
As the number of CCTV cameras per system continues to rise, it is increasingly important to ensure that control room staff get a good visual overview and not a confusing video overload. - Which is why Geutebrueck have teamed up with top video analysis developer Aimetis to produce a new, high performance, video assistance solution for intelligently filtering visual information before it is presented.
The new GeViScope video analysis software module spots a range of different types of objects and behaviours which might require attention or investigation. 'Person', 'car', 'fast', 'slow', 'wrong direction', 'object appearing' and 'object disappearing', can all be recognized either separately, or when logically combined. So if desired, it will trigger alerts when a person moves fast, or a car goes in the wrong direction, but will ignore a car going fast or a person going in the wrong direction. These alerts can automatically activate recording from particular cameras; switch pictures of the event to another viewer station; trigger an alarm; bring PTZ and/or dome systems into preset positions; switch the user interface to the relevant site plan; inform a host management system, etc, whatever is appropriate.
By building their own object-based recognition system round an Aimetis kernel algorithm Geutebrueck have been able to ensure that their solution is not only very flexible and adaptable for any kind of scene and application, but that it can be operated in parallel with the GeViScope's own exceptionally efficient VMD. This so-called dual sensor operation increases accuracy and reduces unwanted alarms to rare events, thereby providing significant benefit in monitoring perimeters, open sites and buildings. By feeding back content analysis results to the picture database, the video assistant supports statistical functions, fast picture searching by extended search criteria, selective backup, and so-called 'fading long term memory'.
Needless to say, this video analysis software works whether the picture source was originally analogue, IP or megapixel. It is available as a software upgrade from February 2007. More details at www.geutebruck.com.
Background information
The GeViScope is designed to be the ultimate flexible digital CCTV system platform. It boasts an outstanding VMD; audio alarm on stereo channels, and a unique multi-processor system which processes each incoming video channel in whatever way you want. It supports a large and variable number of video and audio signals, each with fully independent real time functionality, easy updating and re-programming, and new functions arriving all the time. Other recent upgrades include: MPEG4CCTV compression; MSC3 alarm picture display; retrieval of MSC3 server event list data; camera position authentication; automatic backup, network diagnostics, support for any kind of picture source including screenshots, resolutions of up to 5 Megapixels; as well as control of camera functions such as PTZ and cameras with built-in motion detection.
