Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing moving object detection systems struggle to efficiently process multiple moving objects in captured images from multiple cameras, often leading to processing delays and congestion.
Innovation Solution
A moving object detection system that includes multiple cameras, image recognition circuitries, and an information management apparatus. The information management apparatus manages image data and congestion information to distribute image data efficiently among the image recognition circuitries, based on the number of moving objects detected in each camera's field of view.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If image data from multiple cameras is supplied to image recognition circuitries for detecting multiple moving objects, then detection accuracy is improved, but processing time increases and system congestion occurs
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments image data processing by dividing the captured image into multiple regions and assigning different regions to different image recognition circuitries. The information management apparatus distributes image data to multiple circuitries based on congestion information, allowing parallel processing of different spatial zones while maintaining comprehensive object detection coverage.
2Productivity
If image data is distributed to multiple image recognition circuitries, then processing efficiency is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The information management apparatus serves as an intermediary between cameras and image recognition circuitries. It manages congestion information and intelligently distributes image data to appropriate circuitries, coordinating the complex interactions between multiple components while maintaining system efficiency and reducing overall complexity.
3Reliability
If all image data is processed by all image recognition circuitries, then detection reliability is improved, but energy consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies partial action by having each image recognition circuitry process only specific regions of image data rather than analyzing all images from all cameras. The information management apparatus determines which circuitries need which image data based on congestion information, reducing redundant processing and energy consumption while maintaining reliable detection through strategic distribution.
