DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a view illustrating a conventional surveillance apparatus capable of detecting a position of a sound and detecting the position of the sound.

Referring to FIG. 1, a surveillance apparatus capable of sensing sound and tracking a location of the surveillance apparatus is generally installed in a streetlight 100, and includes a microphone 110 and a surveillance camera 120.

The microphone 110 is composed of three microphones 111, 112 and 113 and is installed in one streetlight. The location of the sound generation can be tracked by the position of the three microphones 111, 112 and 113 and the intensity of the sound source.

The surveillance camera 120 switches the direction of the sound source among the sound sources collected from the respective microphones 111, 112, and 113 toward the sound source where the sound source is most intensively generated.

Accordingly, three streetlights 100 and one surveillance camera 120 are formed in one streetlight 100, and three microphones 110 track the location of the sound source to find the source location, The sound source position can be photographed by the sound source 120.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an event monitoring network capable of sensing location by sound according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG.

Referring to FIG. 2, a monitoring device capable of sensing sound and detecting a location is installed in a streetlight or the like, and includes a sound sensor 210 and a surveillance camera 220 to form one node. At this time, the location where the acoustic sensor 210 and the surveillance camera 220 are installed is not limited to the street lamp, and it can be installed in various places such as inside / outside of the building, tree, column, It is preferable to install it with a lighting device. In addition, a street lamp or the like may be a single node, and each node may be gathered to form a plurality of nodes 200. [

The acoustic sensor 210 senses an acoustic signal through a microphone, and a single acoustic sensor is installed in one streetlight. Here, a microphone is also called a mike (mic), and is a device for converting sound into an electric signal by transmitting an audible sound to an electric energy converter or a sensor.

The surveillance camera 220 can acquire image information by tracking the sound source generation position by the acoustic sensor 210 and photographing a specific space such as a road, an alleyway, a building, and the like. Here, the surveillance camera 320 may be implemented by various types of image sensors (e.g., CCD, CMOS, etc.) or CCTV capable of sensing images.

Accordingly, a sound sensor 210 and a surveillance camera 220 are installed in a streetlight or the like to form one node 200, and the sound generation position is tracked by a plurality of nodes 200 disposed at spatially distant locations Thereby forming an event monitoring network.

The event monitoring network includes a plurality of nodes 200 and a monitoring system.

A plurality of nodes are arranged at a spatially separated position, and a surveillance camera and a single acoustic sensor may be installed at each node. The plurality of nodes collect the intensity and the arrival angle of the acoustic signal sensed by the single acoustic sensor installed in each of the nodes, and cooperatively track the generation position of the acoustic signal. Herein, the plurality of nodes can group the sound generation locations according to the number of preset nodes, and the number of the predetermined nodes in the order of the rapid sensing by the single acoustic sensor can form a group. In this case, it is preferable that the plurality of nodes track the generation position of the acoustic signal by the plurality of three or more nodes. If more than four nodes are used, more accurate distances can be calculated, It is also possible to track the sound generation position and display it on the coordinates.

Moreover, a plurality of nodes can form a group reflecting the time or the degree of ambient noise. For example, it is preferable to select a plurality of nodes at a close range because noise is generally large during the day, Therefore, a plurality of nodes at a distance can be selected and grouped. The plurality of nodes are grouped to track the generation position of the sound signal, and may include at least one of a power state depending on whether the intention or power of the manager is sufficiently supplied, So that more accurate sound generation position can be tracked. As the number of nodes participating in the position tracking increases, the tracking of the sound generation position becomes more accurate. Therefore, it is desirable to increase the number of the nodes where the event occurrence frequency is high.

Here, the event can be a crime, an accident, or the like, and it can be determined whether or not the event is generated by voice and image such as a collision sound, a scream, an explosion sound, and a crack of a window.

The monitoring system collects acoustic signals sensed by a single acoustic sensor installed in each of the plurality of nodes and tracks the generation position of the acoustic signal using the height of each of the plurality of nodes or the height of a single acoustic sensor , The surveillance camera can be controlled based on the location of the tracked acoustic signal. The monitoring system may be installed in any one of a plurality of nodes, or may be installed separately from a plurality of nodes.

In addition, the monitoring system can broaden the surveillance range by turning the surveillance camera up, down, left and right by the function of tilting and panning according to the location of the sound signal, zooming in and zooming out, it is possible to control the sound to be photographed even in the case of a sound sensed at a long distance and to closely observe it. Such a surveillance camera can be used as a position control device of a camera through detection of sound, and a user can artificially operate the position and zoom function of the camera in up and down directions. Here, tilting is a method in which the camera moves up and down along a moving object and vertically. Panning is a method of photographing a wide range by moving the camera horizontally along the moving object and photographing horizontally.

The monitoring system collects the video signal sensed by the surveillance camera and evaluates the correlation between the video signal and the audio signal to determine whether the event has occurred. Here, the degree of correlation can be determined by the occurrence of the same position of the event occurrence, a previously stored image pattern (collision pattern, existence of a person, etc.), and a previously stored voice pattern (collision speech pattern, screaming sound, etc.).

For example, [Table 1] is a table (on a scale of 10 out of 10) showing an example of correlation evaluation in which event occurrence can be determined.

Acoustic signal
Score Video signal
Score Temporal match
Score Spatial location
Score
Correlation 4 4 2 2 3 9 7 2 2 5 9 7 8 6 7.5

As described above, the score can be given according to the acoustic signal, the video signal, the temporal coincidence, and the spatial position, and the correlation can be evaluated by calculating an average according to the score, and it is possible to determine whether an event has occurred according to the correlation.

Here, the second correlation and the third correlation are compared with the first correlation score, and it can be determined that the event is generated because a high score is given. The third correlation is compared with the second correlation, Since the score is high, it is possible to more reliably determine the occurrence of the event, and in an area where the event occurrence frequency is high, or when the event occurrence is high, an environment more suitable for the position tracking can be created.

Accordingly, the sound sensor 210 of the plurality of nodes 200 cooperates with each other to track the sound generation position, and can acquire image information of the event generation space by photographing using the surveillance camera 220.
