Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de surveillance et un procédé pour indiquer avec précision une cible indépendamment de la distance entre la cible et une caméra. Le dispositif de surveillance de l'invention comprend : un module de capture rotatif capturant une cible dans une zone de surveillance ; un premier module de capture fixe installé dans la direction verticale par rapport au module de capture rotatif, et capturant la zone de surveillance de cible ; un second module de capture fixe installé dans la direction horizontale par rapport au module de capture rotatif, et capturant la zone de surveillance de cible ; et un module de commande qui génère des informations de position de la cible d'un module de capture fixe virtuel où le point central de rotation du module de capture rotatif et la position de foyer sont identiques sur la base d'informations d'image comprenant la cible provenant des premier et second modules de capture fixes, et qui commande le module de capture rotatif sur la base d'informations de position virtuelles. En utilisant une caméra fixe et une caméra PTZ, une surveillance à large plage est effectuée et une image de haute résolution d'un intrus ou d'une cible dans la zone de surveillance est capturée avec précision et simultanément indépendamment de la distance. La fiabilité d'un système de sécurité utilisant une détection de visage et une reconnaissance d'objet peut être de ce fait considérablement augmentée. Indépendamment de la distance entre une caméra et une cible, une caméra PTZ est commandée pour indiquer avec précision la cible de sorte qu'une distance de surveillance peut être étendue.
