Description

Complex Infrared Sensor Using Image, Operation Method and Security Facility Integrated Management System Using Image

The present invention relates to an infrared detection sensor for intrusion detection of security facilities, and more particularly, it is necessary to determine whether the infrared light is emitted in the image information of the monitoring area when the shielding signal is detected by the infrared receiver of the infrared detection sensor. By only reducing and issuing reliable alarms, you can get accurate sensing information that can be immediately responded to by administrators in actual situations, and provide information that can be immediately remotely checked for abnormalities or deterioration of IR sensors without on-site inspection. The present invention relates to a composite infrared sensor using image that can be used, its operation method, and integrated security system for security facilities using the same.

The unmanned surveillance system has the advantages of strict access control of security facilities (hereinafter referred to as "security facilities"), such as paid and gas storage, ammunition or arsenal, and the effective management and grasp of the status and situation of security facilities in real time at a remote location. It is widely spread.

The unmanned surveillance system is implemented as a communication device that communicates with a camera, a penetration detection sensor, and an integrated management device on a fence of security facilities, inside and outside walls of a building, an entrance, or a space or a place where security is vulnerable.

The present invention relates to a penetration detection monitoring sensor, in particular to an infrared detection sensor.

1 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of an RX module of a conventional infrared sensor, and describes the configuration and effect of the infrared sensor.

The infrared sensor includes an RX module 11 for receiving infrared radiation radiated from a TX module (not shown), an amplifying unit 12 for amplifying the received signal, and a light quantity discrimination for comparing the amplified optical signal with a set value. The unit 13 includes a light shielding time comparison unit 14 for determining the light shielding time and an alarm receiving and generating device 15 for issuing an alarm.

The amplifier 12 amplifies the infrared waveform received by the RX module 11 including the photoelectric conversion unit and outputs it to the light receiving amount discriminating unit 13, the light receiving amount discriminating unit 13 is amplified output from the amplifier 12 When the received signal value is less than the set value, the received light signal value is determined to be less than the set value, and it is determined that infrared light is blocked before light reception, and the light shielding signal is transmitted to the light shielding time comparison unit 14.

The shading time comparison unit 14 sets and stores shading time in advance to determine whether shading is performed, counts the time that shading proceeds, and sends an alarm signal to the alarm receiving and generating device 15 when the shading time is longer than the set time. Send a specific alarm.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a control process of sensing light shielding of an RX module of a conventional infrared sensor and triggering an alarm. In the RX module 11, the received light signal value is calculated (S1) and then calculated. And a predetermined value are compared (S2), and when the calculated value is less than the set value (S3), it is determined that the infrared wavelength transmitted from the TX module is shielded.

Therefore, when the shading time is longer than the set time by comparing the shading time calculated by counting the time from the time of shading (S4) to the set time (S5), it is determined that the monitoring area is blocked (released) by a specific object. Generate an alarm (S6).

As described above, the conventional IR sensor may have a loophole in which the RX module 11 does not detect shading if it penetrates in less than a predetermined shading time, that is, at a high speed.

In addition, when the sensitivity of the infrared sensor is reduced due to abnormality or damage of the TX module or the RX module, a large loophole occurs in the security. Therefore, the administrator frequently checks the operation status of the infrared sensor. Since it is distributed and installed in a high place where it is hard to reach, it is very cumbersome and inconvenient to check the abnormality of the sensor by removing the cover of the receiving infrared sensor and measuring the received voltage.

The main reason why the sensitivity of the infrared light sensor is lowered is the change of the fixed state, external shock, seasonal temperature change or weather change, and the outer case removed during the sensor inspection. It is caused by various reasons such as sensor position change when reassembly.

Most of the sensing sensitivity check of the infrared sensor is done by connecting a dedicated tester to the photoelectric conversion unit to measure the received voltage.However, even if the infrared sensor fails or operates under a low sensitivity, Since the unmanned surveillance system is operated without knowing this, security loopholes may occur.

In particular, the conventional infrared sensor is an alarm even if the infrared rays are blocked by falling leaves or shaking tree branches, so frequent alarms act as a problem that greatly reduces the reliability of the infrared sensor.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, an object of the present invention is to clearly determine whether the intrusion attempts by determining the image information obtained by the operation of the image sensor when shielding the received signal of the infrared receiver of the infrared sensor By reducing unnecessary alarms and issuing only necessary alarms, it is possible to enhance the reliability of the infrared sensor. Also, it is easy to check the sensor without unnecessary on-site inspection because the administrator can check the sensitivity of the infrared sensor or remotely. To provide a complex infrared sensor using an image that can be checked.

Another object of the present invention is an infrared sensor that can increase the reliability by clearly distinguishing the alarm signal and false alarm signal when penetrating also by integrating the signal of the detection of the infrared wavelength in the image of the light blocking or received signal and the surveillance region. It is to provide a method of operation.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a method for operating an infrared sensor that can increase reliability by extracting whether there is an unknown object shape from an image of which infrared wavelength is not detected and clearly distinguishing and issuing an alarm signal and a false alarm signal using only image information. It is.

It is another object of the present invention to construct a security facility management system by integrating each infrared detection sensor installed in a wide area, and to analyze the detection of infrared wavelengths in each infrared detection sensor shading or received signal and an image sensing a surveillance area. It is to provide a security facility integrated management system that integrates the alarm and video information transmitted from each infrared sensor by the integration through the communication module to manage the security facilities.

It can be implemented by a signal processor.

Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of a composite infrared sensor using an image according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

3A and 3B, FIGS. 3A and 3B are conceptual views illustrating main components of a composite infrared sensor using an image of the present invention, and FIG. 4A is a diagram of a composite infrared sensor using an image according to the present invention. In the block diagram illustrating the main configuration, the infrared sensor 100 of the present invention is composed of a TX module TX for transmitting infrared rays and an RX module RX for receiving infrared rays and converting them into electrical signals.

For reference, a detailed description thereof will be omitted since it is similar to a conventional infrared sensor (see contents described in the background art), which implements a function of determining an intrusion when infrared rays transmitted from the TX module TX are shielded.

However, in the present invention, when the shielding signal of the RX module of the infrared sensor is detected, the monitoring area is sensed by an image sensor, and the actual wavelength is determined in detail according to whether infrared wavelength and shape information are detected in the sensed image (image). The composite infrared sensor of the present invention will be described in detail.

As shown in FIG. 4A, the composite infrared sensor 100 receives an infrared wavelength transmitted from a TX module and transmits the received infrared wavelength to the RX module RX and the RX module RX. When the shading signal is detected by analyzing the image information captured by the camera module 120 consisting of the narrow-angle lens 121, the image sensing unit 122, the sensing area setting unit 123, the infrared wavelength and shape information in the image Detection signal, IR detection signal and shape information signal of the image analysis module 124 and the RX module RX, which transmits a signal analyzing whether the signal is detected to the detection signal processing unit 130, an appropriate alarm command signal And a detection signal processor 130 for classifying the false alarm signal and transmitting the alarm signal to the alarm receiver 140.

The above-mentioned narrow angle lens 121 of the camera module 120 is to improve the infrared wavelength detection and shape recognition rate by minimizing the sensing area of the image by the image sensor 122 to increase the analysis speed and resolution during image analysis.

The image detection range of the image captured by the narrow angle lens 121 may be adjusted by the sensing area setting unit 123. As an example of employing the sensing area setting unit 123, a fixed manual iris method may be adopted as the narrow angle lens 121.

The image sensor 122 is installed in the camera module 120 to detect the infrared wavelength transmitted from the TX module TX as an image and update a predetermined amount of time in the image storage device 124a (memory) of the image analysis module 124. To be updated in such a way as to:

The image analysis module 124 analyzes an image (image) stored in the image storage device 124a and transmits an analysis signal (ON = 1, OFF = 0) to the image processor.

As a preferred embodiment according to the image analysis, any technique capable of detecting the presence or absence of infrared rays in the image sensed by the image sensor 122 can be employed without difficulty.

Preferred employment examples according to the image analysis employed in the present invention are as follows.

In general, infrared detectors use infrared LEDs with a near-infrared wavelength band of 880 nm, and the spectral distribution characteristics of infrared LEDs range from about 700 nm to about 1 μm around 880 nm. Since the red light of the infrared LED is visible to the naked eye, there is an advantage that it is easy to check or adjust the operation.

Visible light visible to the human eye is 350 ~ 740nm wavelength band, so the light emitting state of the infrared LED appears slightly bright red with the naked eye but very bright on the image sensor side.

This is because the sensitivity characteristics in the near infrared region of the image sensor are more sensitive than the human eye. In the present invention, the light emission state of the infrared LED is enlarged by the image sensor, and the light emission state and the transmission state of the infrared LED portion are utilized. By analyzing the change in the image level according to the data in real time, the false alarm rate of the infrared sensor can be significantly lowered.

In more detail, the emission level of the infrared LED shown during the day is lower than the night on the screen because the ambient illumination is bright. Since this occurs because of the operation of the auto iris of the image sensor, the brightness of the image sensor must be kept constant so that the value of the image level is kept constant. Therefore, if the fixed iris is fixed by adjusting it in the daytime bright state, and the brightness value of the image level is read by extracting the image part where the infrared LED emits light, the value of the image level does not change regardless of the day / night. Changes in image level occur due to snow, rain, fog, leaves blowing in the wind, and castles that cover winters.

Infrared alarms must be blocked for a certain period of time in any case. Similarly, the image level value of the image sensor is recognized as an intrusion state only when it becomes '0' for a certain time. If the infrared beam is blocked and the '0' value of the image level coincides simultaneously, and the exception is the case where the infrared RX module is broken, the shape is detected when the level of the infrared wavelength is small or "0" in the image information. If only false alarm is detected, all other alarm conditions are treated as false alarms.In case of false alarms, the detection signal processor sends all data related to this, that is, the reception level value and the image level value of the infrared sensor to the manager server. Identify the cause of false alarms.

 The image of the infrared transmitting LED captured by the image sensor should be captured as large and clear as possible with a small deviation of the calculation value of the usual image level, and the background illumination should be dark. The background of the infrared LED is the cover of the infrared sensor, and the cover is made of polycarbonate material which is dark red to facilitate the passage of the infrared beam, so there is no need to darken the background separately, but the size of the infrared LED is very large in image size. If too small is displayed on the screen because of the small size, the brighter portion is displayed during image processing, and the amount of computation of the image level is also reduced, which may cause a large deviation.

To deal with this, a narrow angle lens is used, and the zoom magnification needs to be made as large as possible. In general, the maximum installation distance of the infrared detector does not exceed 100m to facilitate the installation and maintenance, according to the present invention, when the maximum installation distance 100m, a lens having a focal length of 100mm or more may be required, and the sensing area setting unit 123 (See FIG. 4A), an appropriately set image range calculated in inverse proportion to the number of pixels of the image sensor can achieve the desired performance even under 50 mm.

In other words, when using the 300,000 pixel image sensor 122 (refer to FIG. 4A), if the 100 mm lens and the 1.2 million pixel image sensor are used, the 25 mm lens can be used in inverse proportion.

The detection signal processing unit 130 receives the light emission and light shielding signals (light emission = 0, light shielding = 1) transmitted by the RX module RX as shown in FIG. 4A, and correspondingly, whether or not an alarm is issued is programmed. After the control is performed according to the control processing, the received video signal is normally recognized as a background screen, and when a new video signal (object shape) is sensed by the image sensor 122, irrespective of whether or not an infrared wavelength is received in the video information, Upon receiving the light blocking signal transmitted from the RX module RX, the alarm signal and the image information are transmitted to the security facility integrated management system 200 through both communication modules 210A and 210B.

In this case, the detection signal processing unit 130 transmits the alarm signal and the image information to the image information stored in the image storage device 124a before / after the alarm signal transmission for a predetermined time, preferably before / after the alarm signal transmission 10 Send a second video.

The detection signal processor 130 may be installed in the complex infrared sensor receiver receiver 100 or may be installed at an alarm reception and command device 211 and communicate with the image analysis module 124 as shown in FIG. 4B. It may be installed between the modules 210A. In the former case, it can be prevented from being damaged together when the complex IR sensor receiver 100 is damaged, and it is useful when constructing an integrated management system for multiple security facilities, and in the latter case, it is useful for implementing an independent security facility management system.

When the detection signal processing unit 130 is installed in the complex infrared sensor receiver receiver 100, the image storage device is installed in the image analysis module 124, and the alarm receiving and issuing device 211 of the security facility integrated management system 200. In the case of installation on the) side, two pairs of lines of the communication module 210A and 210B are used to transmit an alarm signal (contact signal) to one pair and to transmit the image to the twisted pair transmission method to the other pair, or to use a power line communication method. Can be.

Control processing of the received signal output value of the detection signal processing unit 130 and the alarm command signal corresponding to the infrared detection signal output value in the image will be described in more detail in the control method of the infrared sensor.

Hereinafter will be described an implementation example of a security facility integrated management system using the infrared surveillance sensor shown in Figure 4a.

Referring to FIG. 4B, FIG. 4B is a block diagram illustrating a main configuration of the integrated security facility management system 100 using the infrared sensor shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B. The integrated security facility management system 200 is a specific diagram. The infrared sensor 100 and the camera installed at a specific location or space of the facility are connected to the communication module 210A having a unique IP, and the alarm signal and the image analysis module 124 of the RX module RX are connected. Manager server 220 for storing infrared wavelength detection signal and shape detection signal in the image, transmission date information and false alarm processing information (data), monitor 230 for observing the processing signal or image information transmitted from a remote place; And a communication module 210B and an alarm receiving and initiating device 211 that communicate with the facility side communication module 210A.

Therefore, the integrated security facility management system 200 based on the infrared sensor 100 of the present invention communicates information (data transmission) and control signals through communication modules (210A) (210B) installed on each facility and the manager side, respectively. This is done.

Hereinafter, a method of operating an infrared sensor using an image according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 5.

5, FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating control processing of a composite infrared sensor using an image according to the present invention.

First, when the signal received by the RX module RX detects a predetermined value or more, the output value is transmitted to the detection signal processing unit, and when the light reception signal is not detected by shading, the output value is output to "1" to the detection signal processing unit. If the received signal is below the set range, the output value transmits "2" to the detection signal processor.

In addition, when the infrared wavelength is not detected in the image sensed by the image sensor of the image analysis module 124, the output value 1 is transmitted to the detection signal processor, and in the opposite case, "0" is transmitted to the detection signal processor.

When the object shape is detected, the output value transmits "1" to the detection signal part and, in the opposite case, "0".

The control signal processing unit corresponding to the reception state of the output value of the RX module and the result output value of the image analysis module 124 is shown in Table 1 below.

In Table 1 above, situation 1 is a situation where the received signal is received above the set value, so the infrared sensor can be confirmed that it is operating normally, and the infrared wavelength is not detected in the image by image analysis. It can be judged that there is no situation.

Table 1

division	Received signal output value	IR wavelength detection value	Shape detection value	process
Situation
1	0	0	0	No alarm signal transmitted (no invader)
Situation 2	One	0	0	False alarm signal transmission (attention signal), video information transmission
Situation 3	0	One	0	False alarm signal transmission (attention signal), video information transmission
Situation 4	0	0	One	False alarm signal transmission (attention signal), video information transmission
Situation
5	One	One	0	Alarm signal transmission, video information transmission
Situation 6	One	0	One	Alarm signal transmission, video information transmission
Situation 7	0	One	One	Alarm signal transmission, video information transmission
Situation 8	One	One	One	Alarm signal transmission, video information transmission
Situation 9	2	0		False alarm transmission (sensor check signal transmission), video signal transmission
Situation 10	2	One		False alarm transmission (sensor check signal transmission), video signal transmission

In Table 1 above, situation 2 indicates that the infrared wavelength is detected in the image as a result of the image analysis, but the infrared ray is blocked before the light is received in the surveillance area, so the penetration of the security facility is seriously suspected, or the abnormality or failure of the RX module (RX) is suspected. Therefore, for the security of the through-the-air security facility integrated management system (200) transmits the false alarm signal (caution alarm) and at the same time by transmitting the video information, the administrator directly monitors and observes the situation and the RX module of the infrared sensor (RX Plan your inspection.

In the above Table 1, situation 3 is a situation where the received signal value is higher than the set value. Therefore, when the infrared sensor is normally operated or when the infrared wavelength is detected in the image as a result of image analysis, the penetration attempt cannot be predicted. It only corresponds to a case where fallen leaves or other obstacles pass momentarily in the sensing area, the detection signal processor 130 transmits and stores a false alarm signal to the manager server 220.

In Table 1 above, situation 4 indicates that the received light signal and the infrared wavelength detection signal are normal, but only the object shape is detected. Therefore, the fallen leaves, insects, birds, etc., did not block the infrared beam, or the intruder talked over the height of the infrared beam. Since the situation can be assumed, administrators should check the situation by sending false alarm signals and video information.

In Table 1 above, situation 5 indicates that the received signal is shielded and the result of image analysis indicates that the infrared wavelength is not detected in the image, so that the detection signal processor 130 may be integrated into the security facility integrated management system 200. By sending an emergency command signal and transmitting video information at the same time, the administrator can immediately go to the site or monitor the detailed situation directly. However, since the shape detection is not performed, it may be an alarm due to the sensing of a small object such as a bird or a cat. Therefore, the field check is required. When the shape detection is judged to be a "small bird", the alarm is canceled or not issued.

In the above Table 1, situation 6 is a situation in which the received signal is blocked and the infrared wave is detected in the image as a result of the image analysis, but since the object shape is detected, it can be determined as a penetrator. Therefore, the detection signal processor 130 is an integrated security facility management system (200). By sending an emergency command signal and transmitting video information at the same time, the administrator can immediately go to the site or monitor the detailed situation directly, and analyze the video to analyze the situation where the infrared wavelength is continuously detected and check the camera. The video analysis module 124 and the detection signal processor are arranged to check for abnormalities.

In the above Table 1, situation 7 indicates that the received signal is normal but the infrared wavelength is not detected in the image as a result of image analysis, and since the object shape is detected, it may be determined as a penetrator. Therefore, the detection signal processor 130 is an integrated security facility management system. Transmitting an emergency command signal to the 200 and simultaneously transmitting image information, the manager can immediately dispatch to the site or check the detailed situation directly through monitoring, and analyze the image to receive an infrared light signal without being blocked. Analyze and plan the inspection of the receiver of the infrared sensor.

In the above Table 1, situation 8 is a situation in which the received signal is blocked, the infrared wavelength is not detected in the image, and the object shape is detected, so that the perfect penetrator can be determined. Therefore, the detection signal processor 130 integrates the security facilities. The emergency command signal (alarm signal) is transmitted to the management system 200, and at the same time, the image information is transmitted so that the administrator can immediately go to the site or monitor the detailed situation directly from the remote.

In the above Table 1, the situation 9 and 10 indicates that the received signal value is less than or equal to the previously stored setting value, so it means a sensor failure, a poor reception sensitivity, or a decrease in sensitivity due to weather. Therefore, the detection signal processing unit 130 may detect whether or not infrared rays are detected. Infrared sensor check request signal is sent to the administrator to check the infrared sensor.

In conclusion, Situation 5 to Situation 7 except Situation 8 proves that there is a problem in the security management system although the intrusion alarm is certain, so it is necessary to check the system after the termination of the situation.

As described above, the detection signal processing unit 130 issues a false alarm signal, a sensor check request signal, a caution alarm signal, and an emergency command signal by combining the received signal output value and the reception status, the infrared wavelength output value of the image and the shape detection signal. By transmitting the video of 10 seconds before and after the basis of the occurrence of the caution alarm, emergency occurrence alarm to the integrated management system 200, the administrator can immediately respond to the occurrence of a situation that requires a substantial response.

Setting the video information transmission amount to 10 seconds before / after the alarm is only an example, and the time adjustment width should be set large enough during production.

Therefore, the infrared sensor 100 according to the present invention can reduce unnecessary false alarms and accurately determine and issue only necessary alarms, so that an administrator can immediately respond to an emergency situation such as a penetration penetrator, and also if there is an abnormality of the infrared sensor from a remote location. Since it is possible to check or confirm the failure, it is not necessary to visit and check each infrared sensor, and the reliability of the infrared sensor is greatly enhanced.

The present invention can be applied to intrusion monitoring for security facilities or to detect in advance whether the fire of the main facility or building (smoke detection).
