Description

"Autonomous surveillance system"

The invention relates to a video surveillance system.

Conventional surveillance by a guard present permanently on a site to be monitored is particularly expensive. It has therefore been proposed autonomous video surveillance systems that do not require the presence of a guardian on the site. These systems usually include a camera installed on the site. Data from the images taken by the camera are recorded and transmitted to a remote security station.

This transmission is usually wireless. Monitoring therefore does not require the site to be wired to the remote security station. In addition, the same guardroom can monitor multiple sites simultaneously, reducing monitoring costs. In addition, these systems can monitor sites that are dangerous or hostile to human presence. Good Overall satisfactory, it would be particularly valuable to reduce the cost of monitoring provided by these existing systems.

For this purpose, this invention provides a video surveillance system of a site comprising at least one camera, communication means arranged to transmit data from the camera to a remote security station, a base intended to be placed on the ground. or on any support disposed on the ground such as a slab or a building, a mast, a camera all anti-vandal admitting a configuration of operation in which it extends from the base to receive near its free end the camera and a storage configuration in which it has a small footprint, the system requiring at its installation a positioning of the mast in the operating configuration and a verification of the operation of the communication means. Characteristically, the system comprises activation means intended to be solicited by a user present on the site and is arranged so that the setting in position of the mast and the verification of the operation of the communication means are triggered by the solicitation of activation means or are triggered from the remote security station following the solicitation of the activation means. In addition, the mast comprises several telescopic modules, one of which houses the other modules and is pivotally mounted relative to the base. The base comprises a housing shaped to house the retracted mast in storage configuration and the camera. The system is arranged so that in storage configuration the camera is not accessible from outside the system.

Thus, the commissioning operations that a person present on the site has to perform are to have the system on the site and then to request the activation means. The commissioning of the system is therefore ensured in a considerably reduced time and does not require any technical knowledge of the system from the user.

The costs of monitoring a site equipped with such a system are therefore substantially reduced. This cost reduction is all the more significant if the site is located in a risk zone that is difficult to access or remote from the surveillance company. The invention thus considerably increases the interest of the surveillance systems. For applications dedicated for example to the supervision of building sites or temporary exhibitions, these systems can be rented for relatively short periods of time without the cost of the lease being strongly impacted by the commissioning of the system.

In addition, this configuration of the system makes it possible to have a high mast, which makes it possible to improve the quality of the monitoring. In addition, the camera is not accessible from the outside, its glass or its optical part can not be degraded or masked. The system can then be left unattended before its activation is triggered. However, this situation is in practice common, especially when routing to a site or when storing the system or on a site when the monitoring contract is being validated, will begin or ends. The risks of vandalism or deliberate or involuntary damage are thus considerably reduced. The system that is the subject of the present invention thus offers a high monitoring efficiency, while improving the ease of implementation and the robustness.

The system according to the invention may optionally include at least any of the following features: the system is arranged so that in storage configuration no active part of the system is accessible from the outside. The active parts of the system comprise all of the members having at least one of the following functions: detection, analysis, transmission, data reception or the interface with a user or a guarding station. At least some of these members include an electrical part or an electrical connection. the system comprises obstruction means arranged to selectively prevent or allow access to the interior of the housing. advantageously, the obstruction means are articulated on the base so as to move from an open position in which they allow access to the housing from the outside to a closed position in which they prevent access to housing from the outside. advantageously, the system is arranged so that in storage configuration the obstruction means prevent access to the mast from the outside. The obstruction means thus preventing access to the mast and the camera. These are therefore preserved from any damage. advantageously, the system is shaped so that the obstruction means are in the closed position when the system is in the operating configuration and in the storage configuration and is in the open position when the mast is being deployed out of the housing or is retracting into the dwelling. Thus, the housing is accessible only when the system is in an intermediate configuration between storage and operating configurations. The time during which the housing is made accessible is therefore very short. The vulnerability of the system is therefore reduced. the housing is isolated from the inside of the box. It does not give access to organs or other modules located inside the box. - The obstruction means form closure flaps. Preferably, the obstruction means are articulated in rotation on the base. Alternatively, the obstruction means are nestable and / or telescopic. the system comprises a pneumatic or hydraulic device arranged to deploy the mast between the storage and operating configurations. the system is arranged to allow a continuous connection with the remote security station. the system comprises motion detection means located near the free end of the mast. the system comprises control means comprising the activation means and control means arranged to operate a security check to allow the solicitation of the activation means. the control means comprise a key switch and / or an alpha numeric keyboard and / or a reading port of a card and / or a device for recognizing and receiving a signal transmitted by a remote control unit. the base comprises a closed compartment allowing access to the isolated control means of the communication means and a closing flap of the compartment to prevent access to the control means. the system comprises means for analyzing images from the camera. It includes means for encrypting and encoding data from the camera. the system comprises at least one connector for connecting the system to an external power source and / or for connecting the system wired or wirelessly to a high-speed data communication terminal present at or near the site . the system comprises a device arranged to allow communication and interaction between said system and another monitoring system disposed on the site. the system comprises at least one sensor arranged to detect a predetermined event. It comprises at least one alarm system arranged for, when the sensor detects this event, transmitting to the remote security station a signal and / or to activate an alarm and / or to control the activation of at least one device outside the system such as gate opening or closing mechanism, lighting or siren. the sensor is arranged to detect at least one of the following events: a fire, a presence of smoke, a human or animal presence, a movement, a technical defect of the system, a temperature jump, a shock to the system, the opening of a shutter or a hatch of the base, a gas concentration. the system is arranged to adapt the behavior of the camera and / or to transmit to the remote security station a signal when motion is detected by the motion detector. the system is arranged so that the movements and / or the zoom of the camera are controlled from the remote guard station.

In addition, provision is made according to the invention for commissioning a site according to any one of the above characteristics and comprising the following steps:

the user present on the site requests the activation means, the system transmits to the remote security station a signal indicating that commissioning is requested, an agent of the remote security station remotely checks the operation of the means of communication and / or triggers the deployment of the mast.

Other characteristics, objects and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the following description and drawings in which: FIG. 1 is a front view of an exemplary system according to the invention in a operating configuration,

FIG. 2 is a front view of the system illustrated in FIG. 1 in its storage configuration,

FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the system illustrated in FIG. 1 in its storage configuration,

- Figure 4 is an enlarged view of the control means housed behind the hatch illustrated in Figure 3.

The system 1 comprises a base 2 intended to be placed on the ground or on any support disposed on the ground. The system is not intended to be buried in the ground. The base 2 has feet 3 ensuring its stabilization. The base 2 can receive significant weight to ballast the system 1 to prevent its movement.

The system 1 without the weights can thus be transported easily.

The system 1 comprises a mast 10 extending in its operating configuration vertically from the base 2. The free end of the mast 10 opposite the base 2 carries at least one camera 20. Advantageously the camera 20 is mounted on a motorized turret . The camera 20 pivots in at least two axes of rotation. The camera 20 rotates about a substantially vertical axis and a substantially horizontal axis. The system 1 comprises communication means arranged to transmit information between the system 1 and a guard station located at a distance from this system 1.

The communication means are configured to ensure transmission over a variety of networks, in particular on the GSM, 3G, 3G +, WiFi and WiMAX networks.

The telephone operator links can be doubled on different operators for redundancy in case of failure of one of them. In the case of WiFi connection, 3G links act as backup gateway.

The means of communication include transmitting and reception such as antennas and data processing members exchanged such as routers. Advantageously, the transmitting and receiving members are located at least partly on the mast 10 near its free end or along the latter. This arrangement makes it possible to improve the reception and the transmission of the information exchanged. The data processing members are themselves housed inside the base 2.

The images generated by the camera 20 are thus transmitted to the remote security station. This transmission does not require a wired connection. The movements and / or the zoom of the camera are controlled remotely from the guard station.

The system 1 includes a central unit for recording and analyzing the images from the camera 20. The central unit also manages the compression and remote access to the images whether in direct reading or replay sequences recorded. Preferably, the communication means ensure a real-time transmission of the images captured by the camera 20. Advantageously, the communication means allow a real-time and permanent transmission of these images. Thus, the guarding station continuously monitors the site in real time. The base 2 forms a closed box so as to prevent access to organs arranged inside the box. The box is closed by a steel wall three millimeters thick.

Advantageously, the system 1 is powered autonomously energy. For this purpose the base 2 contains a fuel cell for supplying the entire system 1. Typically, this battery ensures the operation of the system 1 for 15 days continuously. Alternatively or additionally, there is provided a connector for connecting the system 1 to a power supply source present on the site. It is also possible to provide power batteries included in the base 2. Typically these batteries provide power to the system 1 for 36 hours. They automatically replace power interruption in case of failure of the external power source or fuel cell. The feeding system is contained in the base 2. It is separated from the other organs of the system. It has an independent and secure access.

The system 1 is therefore completely autonomous. It transmits images of the site without requiring any wired connection to communicate or to supply energy. It allows effective monitoring in areas devoid of any infrastructure.

Advantageously, the system 1 has an operating configuration in which the mast 10 is deployed and a storage configuration in which it has a small footprint. In this second configuration, the mast 10 is retracted to facilitate the storage and transport of the system 1. The mast 10 is deployed and retracts preferably telescopically. For this purpose, it comprises a plurality of nestable modules 11. Three of these modules 11 are apparent in the illustration of Figure 1. In storage configuration, a main module 1 1 houses the other modules 11. Preferably, the main module 11 is pivotally mounted on the base 2. In retracted configuration this main module 11 is folded against the base 2. The system 1 thus has a particularly small space in storage configuration.

During its deployment the main module 11 pivots to extract from the base 2 and for each of the modules 11 to extend telescopically. The mast 10 pivots in a substantially vertical plane. This deployment of the mast 10 makes it possible to offer a higher maximum height while limiting the complexity of the deployment and the structure of the system. In storage configuration, the mast 10 extends substantially horizontally. In operating configuration, it extends substantially vertically. Deployment is preferably provided pneumatically or hydraulically. For this purpose the base 2 encloses a pneumatic compressor or a hydraulic pump. Advantageously, if the pressure to maintain the mast 10 in the deployed configuration decreases, for example under the effect of gravity, sensors control the activation of the compressor or the pump to restore adequate pressure to maintain deployment. It can also be provided that the compressor of the pump also rotates the main module 11 relative to the base 2. Alternatively, there is provided an independent motor for the rotation of the main module 11.

Preferably, the base 2 defines a housing 4 shaped to accommodate the mast 10 in storage configuration. Thus the mast 10 is integrated in the base 2. The system 1 then has in retracted configuration a compactness that enhances its robustness.

In the operating configuration, the housing 4 does not allow access to the interior of the system 1 and in particular to the communication means housed inside the base and to the active parts. It is isolated from the inside of the box. In general, in storage configuration, no active part of the system 1 is accessible from the outside. The active parts of the system comprise all the devices having at least one of the following functions: detection, analysis, transmission or reception of data or the interface with a user or a guard station or the cooling of other organs. At least some of these members include an electrical part or an electrical connection. In particular, the optical means and the communication means of the camera are not accessible when the mast is retracted into the base. The camera is indeed inserted in the housing 4 so as not to be vulnerable from the outside. The protection of the system 1 against involuntary or unintentional damage is thus reinforced.

Advantageously, the mast 10 comprises a casing 12 forming a sheath around the main module 11. The size of the envelope 12 in the telescopic deployment direction is substantially greater than that of the main module 11 thus preventing easy access to the various modules 11 of the mast 10 which improves the protection of the system 1.

In addition, the respective dimensions of the envelope 12 and the housing 4 are sufficiently close and sufficiently complementary shapes to prevent access to the housing 4 when the mast is retracted into the base 2. Preferably, the system is furthermore shaped so that in storage configuration the camera 20 is not accessible from the outside. The system can be left unattended before its activation is triggered. The robustness of the system is therefore improved.

More specifically, the system comprises obstruction means arranged to selectively prevent or allow access to the interior of the housing 4. The obstruction means are articulated on the base 2 so as to move from an open position in which they allow access to the housing 4 from the outside to a closed position in which they prevent access to housing from the outside.

They thus cover the housing in the closed position. In storage configuration the obstruction means thus prevent access to the mast 10 and the camera 20. These are thus preserved from any damage.

Advantageously, the obstruction means are in the open position only when the mast 10 is being deployed out of the housing 4 or is retracting into the housing. Thus, the housing is accessible only when the system is in an intermediate configuration between storage and operating configurations. The time during which the housing 4 is made accessible is therefore very short. The vulnerability of the system is therefore reduced.

Preferably, the obstruction means comprise shutters (not shown in the figures) and actuators for moving the shutters from the closed position in which they cover the housing 4 to an open position in which they leave the housing 4 free. Preferably, the obstruction means comprise two flaps. The flaps are articulated in rotation on the base. They are shaped to cooperate together so as to completely cover the housing 4. They extend over the entire length of the periphery of the housing 4. They are mounted in rotation about a substantially horizontal axis. They are made of steel.

Advantageously, the base comprises audio diffusers and a ventilation system which are arranged to be protected when the shutters are in the closed position and the mast 10 is erected.

Typically, system 1 comprises activation means. The solicitation by a user present on the site of these activation means automatically triggers a signal at the remote security station. An agent of the security guard is informed that the commissioning of the system 1 is desired. It then remotely controls the deployment of the mast 10. The sensors present on the system 1 are configured to indicate to the guard station that the deployment of the mast 10 is correct. Thus, to position the camera 20, the user present on the site only needs to solicit the activation means.

These activation means comprise for example a switch or a key switch 32. The installation of the mast 10 is therefore without requiring any technical knowledge from the user. In addition it will not damage the system 1 by mishandling. Moreover, the security guard agent can condition the deployment of the mast 10 to the verification of certain information concerning the user including the identity of the latter, the regularity of the contract linking the latter to the security company etc.

The invention therefore eliminates the requirement to bring a technician from the security company to the site. This advantage is considerable when the conditions of access or intervention on the site are difficult or dangerous. This may be the case when the site is located in an area with a risk of pollution, bad weather, geopolitical disturbances, explosions or presents climatic conditions that are particularly hostile to human presence. The speed of operations on the site is another particularly valuable advantage in these areas.

As an alternative and preferably additionally, the system 1 is configured so that, following the solicitation of the activation means by the user present on the site, the system 1 transmits to the remote security station information relating to his operation. This check can be triggered from the remote guard station.

Thus during the commissioning of the system 1, the initialization or the proper functioning of the communication means are fully controlled and controlled from the remote security station. The system 1 is arranged so that the only operation that the user has to perform is to solicit the activation means to put the system 1 into communication with the remote security station. The The level of technical knowledge and the time required for the commissioning of the means of communication is therefore considerably reduced.

Advantageously, the system 1 comprises control means 30 which comprises the activation means and control means. These are arranged to exercise a security control necessary for the solicitation of the activation means. It comprises, for example, a key switch 32 as illustrated in the example of FIG. 4. It may also comprise a card reading port, a numeric keypad or alphanumerical input keypad, a recognition and reception device of a signal emitted by a remote control box etc. In addition, the control means 30 serve as an interface between the user and the system 1. They comprise at least one screen 31 and / or displays 34 as well as input means. For example, the user can, via the control means 30 exchange information in particular to identify with the system 1 or the guard station, to check the proper operation of the system 1 or to consult his contract binding to the monitoring company. The screen 31 may be touch sensitive and the control means 30 may comprise an alpha numeric keypad. The control means 30 may also include a control box 33 allowing the user to control the deployment of the mast 10.

Advantageously, the base 2 comprises a compartment inside which are housed the control means 30. This compartment is isolated from the rest of the base 2 so that its access does not allow access to the interior of the base 2 The system 1 further comprises a closure flap 6 of the compartment. The shutter 6 is for example equipped with a three-point lock preventing unauthorized access to the control means 30. The system 1 also comprises a detector 21 for opening the shutter 6.

The system 1 comprises an opening for accessing the interior of the base 2. The interior of the base 2 encloses in particular at least part of the communication means, the batteries, the fuel cell, the compressor or the pump. the central unit, the means of image processing and analysis, etc. The interior of the base 2 is isolated from the compartment enclosing the user interface. The opening is closed by a hatch 5 equipped with a three-point lock and a detector 21 opening.

The system 1 comprises data compression means from the images taken by the camera 20. This compression is performed for the transmission and possible storage of these data. It further includes means for encrypting and encoding these data to secure their transmission and storage.

The system 1 preferably comprises means for establishing a wired or wireless connection to a high speed external connection terminal. Thus if the site is equipped with such a terminal, the transmission of information is doubled or supplemented in case of failure.

The system 1 comprises a GPS beacon independent of the other organs of the system 1. It is thus geolocatable. If necessary, a GSM geolocation can be obtained from GSM routers.

The system 1 comprises a device arranged to allow communication with another monitoring system 1. This interaction between several systems 1 connected in networks makes it possible, for example, to trigger the tracking of a mobile element and / or to provide three-dimensional intrusion detection. Typically, the information exchanged between the monitoring systems 1 relates to a detection of persons or movements, an infrared detection, a detection of various defects, the respective positions of cameras 20 etc. The communication between the various systems 1 is carried out for example by radio or wired.

The system 1 is also equipped with a communication device 22 by intercom. This device allows a person present on the site to interact with a person from the remote security station. Advantageously, this device is of full duplex type which allows to transmit and receive simultaneously. An officer of the guarding station can call or inform a person on the site.

The system 1 comprises various sensors adapted to detect at least one of the following events: a fire, the presence of smoke, a concentration in a given gas, an intrusion, a movement, a technical defect of the system 1, an attempt to system 1, a shock to system 1, a threshold temperature, the opening of the closing shutter 6 of the control means 30, the opening of the hatch 5.

The system 1 is configured to transmit to the remote security station a signal characteristic of this event. The security guard agent is alerted of the occurrence of this event.

Preferably, the system 1 comprises an autonomous transmitter for transmitting this signal. Thus, in the event of failure of the communication means, a failure signal can still be transmitted to the remote security station. This autonomous transmitter can be of GSM type. The means of communication may also signal to the security guard their operational problems. Preferably, the system 1 is also configured to trigger a visual or audible alarm on the site if a pre-determined event is detected.

In addition, it is expected that the system 1 is arranged to control devices that are external to it when a predetermined event is detected by a sensor. For example, when a presence is detected, the system 1 commands the closing of a gate, the lighting of light spots, an external siren, etc.

The detectors 21 comprise, for example, detectors 21 for fire, smoke, temperature, gas concentration, movements, shocks, noises, etc. They may also include image analysis software from the camera 20. The camera may be an infrared and / or thermal camera.

The sensors also provide automatic positioning of the camera 20. Thus, as soon as a particular event is determined, the images transmitted to the guard station provide information on this event. The invention also relates to a method of putting the monitoring system 1 into operation. In a preferred embodiment, the method comprises the following steps: - The terminal is placed on the ground of the site to be monitored.

- The user present on the site solicits the means of activation. For this purpose, he unlocks the shutter 6 of the interface compartment and then operates a key switch 32, the system 1 is then engaged.

- The system 1 then transmits to the guard station the indication that the user requests the commissioning of the system 1. - The system 1 transmits information on the status of various parameters.

An agent of the remote guard station verifies that the status of these various parameters corresponds to an operating status. These parameters concern the state of the various sensors mentioned above: the good start of the internal equipment such as transmitter, central unit, image processing element, the closing of the hatch 5, the closure of the shutter, the presence of a source power. The agent of the remote security station thus controls the operation of the routers, the video software, the GSM alarm transmitters and the various sensors.

- The deployment of the mast 10 is triggered and controlled from the remote security station.

- The verification of the good deployment of the mast 10 is provided from the remote security station.

- The radio coverage is also checked.

- Control of the control of the camera 20 and the quality of the video data recorded by the system 1 and received by the remote security station.

- The operation of the intercom system 1 is checked.

- It is indicated via the interface of the control means 30 or via the intercom device that the system 1 is put into operation. Thus, the invention offers the possibility of commissioning a monitoring in a significantly reduced time and without requiring the presence on the site of qualified personnel. It can significantly reduce the cost of monitoring. It also offers a system with a small footprint, particularly robust and reliable. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above but extends to any embodiment within its spirit. She's spreading in particular at fixed or mobile guard posts located at a distance from the site and outside or in the area to be monitored.

To facilitate its movement, the system is advantageously provided with lifting means for example in the form of rings integral with the upper face of the base 2, at its corners.

Its compactness facilitates its handling. It can especially be handled by a crane, a forklift or a pallet truck.

The system is equipped with onboard air conditioning to keep the electronic and electrical components at acceptable temperatures. It is also equipped with a water presence detector as well as a pumping device to evacuate water that has been introduced into the system.

The base comprises several independent compartments isolated from each other. In particular the control panel, the central system and the power system are isolated from each other. Their respective accesses are strengthened. In a particularly efficient and robust version, the weight of the system is about 900 kilos. The base is formed of a steel sheet of three millimeters. Its dimensions are as follows in storage configuration: height 1 meter, width 1 meter, depth in the direction in which the mast extends in retracted configuration 2.2 meters. Height in operating configuration: up to 15 meters.
