19 Mar 2018TL;DR: A global vulnerability assessment is performed using the Shodan search engine and the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures database to detect smart connected cameras exposed on the Internet alongside their sensitive, potentially private, data being broadcasted.
Abstract: The Internet of Things is enabling innovative services promising added convenience and value in various domains such as the smart home. Increasingly, households, office environments and cities, are being fitted with smart camera systems aimed to enhance the security of citizens. At the same time, several systems being deployed suffer from weak security implementations. Recognizing this, and to understand the extent of this situation, in this study we perform a global vulnerability assessment using the Shodan search engine and the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures database. This is done to detect smart connected cameras exposed on the Internet alongside their sensitive, potentially private, data being broadcasted. Furthermore, we discuss whether the discovered data can be used to compromise the safety and privacy of individuals, and identify some mitiga- tions that can be adopted. The results indicate that a significant number of smart cameras are indeed prone to diverse security and privacy vulnerabilities.

24 May 1974TL;DR: In this article, an image generated by a television camera is combined with an image from digitally stored information to form a composite scene wherein objects appearing in either image properly occlude one another with respect to the eyepoint from which the scene is viewed.
Abstract: An image generated by a television camera is combined with an image generated from digitally stored information to form a composite scene wherein objects appearing in either image properly occlude one another with respect to the eyepoint from which the scene is viewed. This is accomplished by processing the camera video signal to provide pulses for each raster line which indicate the starting and stopping points of an object viewed by the camera. At the same time, the camera video signal is provided on a delay line to a video switch which also receives the digitally generated video signal. The switch is controlled by logic circuitry in accordance with the established occlusion priority to pass to the video display device the proper signal from either the camera or the image generator.

22 Oct 2007TL;DR: In this work, the smart camera extracts all the faces from the full-resolution frame and sends the pixel information from these face areas to the main processing unit as a auxiliary video stream - potentially achieving massive data rate reduction.
Abstract: Smart cameras are rapidly finding their way into intelligent surveillance systems. Recognizing faces in the crowd in real-time is one of the key features that will significantly enhance intelligent surveillance systems. The main challenge is the fact that the high volumes of data generated by high-resolution sensors make it computationally impossible for mainstream computers to process. In our proposed technique, the smart camera extracts all the faces from the full-resolution frame and sends the pixel information from these face areas to the main processing unit as a auxiliary video stream - potentially achieving massive data rate reduction. Face recognition software running on the main processing unit then performs the required pattern recognition.

20 Dec 2001TL;DR: In this paper, a camera system consisting of a stationary camera with a wide angle view, a remotely controllable camera having a relatively smaller angle view for providing images in substantially full resolution, and a processor is presented.
Abstract: A camera system and method for operating that system. The camera system comprises a stationary camera having a wide angle view, a remotely controllable camera having a relatively smaller angle view for providing images in substantially full resolution, and a processor. The processor monitors the wide angle view of the stationary camera, receives information concerning a selected desired subject within the wide angle view, generates an electronic pan-tilt-zoom view of the selected desired subject based on the wide angle view of the stationary camera, controls the remotely controllable camera for providing a view that overlaps the electronic pan-tilt-zoom view of the desired subject, and processes the electronic pan-tilt-zoom view of the desired subject in accordance with the resolution of the remotely controllable camera.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a system and method for controlling an infrared camera by using a mobile phone, which includes a client and an IR camera used as a server and connected to the client through a communication network.
Abstract: The present application provides a system and method for controlling an infrared camera by using a mobile phone The system includes a client and an infrared camera used as a server and connected to the client through a communication network The infrared camera is mounted in a location to perform infrared measuring and/or monitoring, so as to provide infrared image videos of a monitored object and temperature data of the points contained in an infrared image The client is mounted in a position far away from the location of the infrared camera to provide a remote control for the infrared camera The present application allows monitoring personnel or a user to remotely monitor and control an infrared camera by using a mobile phone
