Abstract

On décrit un dispositif d'imagerie de trains en mouvement, comprenant : une unité (1) d'alarme d'approche d'un véhicule qui émet un signal d'approche d'un train suite à la détection de l'approche d'un véhicule (6) ; une caméra (3) de surveillance qui saisit une image du toit du véhicule (6) ; et un dispositif de traitement d'images. Le dispositif de traitement d'images est équipé : d'une unité (43) de détection de véhicule avançant qui détecte le véhicule (6) en fonction d'une image capturée par la caméra (3) de surveillance ; d'une unité (44) d'enregistrement qui enregistre l'image capturée par la caméra (3) de surveillance ; et d'une unité (42) de commande qui commande la mise en marche et l'arrêt de la caméra (3) de surveillance en fonction du signal d'approche d'un train émis par l'unité (1) d'alarme d'approche d'un véhicule et qui commande la mise en marche et l'arrêt de l'enregistrement d'images par l'unité (44) d'enregistrement en fonction de la présence / de l'absence du véhicule (6) transmise par l'unité (43) de détection de véhicule avançant. Le dispositif d'imagerie de trains en mouvement utilisant le traitement d'images peut ainsi stocker efficacement une image capturée du véhicule (6) traversant le champ de vision de la caméra (3) de surveillance.
