Asmart cameraorintelligent camerais a vision system which, in addition to image capture circuitry, is capable of extracting application-specific information from the captured images, along with generating event descriptions or making decisions that are used in an intelligent and automated system.A smart camera is a self-contained, standalone vision system with built-in image sensor in the housing of an industrial video camera. It contains all necessary communication interfaces, e.g. Ethernet, as well as industry-proof 24V I/O lines for connection to aprogrammable logic controller, actuators, relays or pneumatic valves. It is not necessarily larger than an industrial or surveillance camera. A capability inmachine vision generally means a degree of development such that these capabilities are ready for use on individual applications. This architecture has the advantage of a more compact volume compared to PC-based vision systems and often achieves lower cost, at the expense of a somewhat simpler (or omitted)user interfaceIntelligent visual surveillance systems deal with the real-time monitoring of persistent and transient objects within a specific environment. The primary aims of these systems are to provide an automatic interpretation of scenes and to understand and predict the actions and interactions of the observed objects based on the information acquired by sensors. Smart Cameras are becoming more popular in Intelligent Surveillance Systems area. Smart cameras are cameras that can perform tasks far beyond simply taking photos and recording videos. Thanks to the purposely built-in intelligent image processing andpatternRecognitionalgorithms, smartcamerascandetectmotion,measureobjects,read vehicle number plates, and even recognize human behaviors.The important differences between a smart camera and normal cameras, such as consumer digital cameras and camcorders, lie in two aspects. The first is in camera system architecture. A smart camera usually has a special image processing unit containing one or more high performance microprocessors to run intelligent ASIPalgorithms, in which the primary objective is not to improve images quality but to extract information and knowledge from images. The image processing hardware in normal cameras is usually simpler and less powerful with the main aim being to achieve good visual image quality. The other main difference is in the primary camera output. A smart camera outputs either the features extracted from the captured images or a high-level description of the scene, which is fed into an automated control system, while for normal cameras the primary output is the processed version of the captured images for human consumption. For this reason, normal video cameras have large output bandwidth requirements (in direct proportion to the resolution of the image sensor used), while smart camera can have very low data bandwidth requirements at the output (it can be just onebit inthe simplestcase,with 1meaningthereis motionand0 meaning thereis no motion,.

BackgroundClosed circuit traffic monitoring was the prime means for collecting and studying road traffic data through the mid to late 1990s, according to the official government website for the city of Murfreesboro, US. CCTV software included the connection of miles ofoptical cable and CCTV cameras. The data captured by the cameras was then transmittedback toacentralserver. Softwareandhardwaretestsincludedfilmingroadtrafficoverset periods of time to assess traffic volume and vehicle speeds. While CCTV units are still used today, efficiency testing is often conducted to assess if cameras can obtain sewer drainage breakdowns and identifying broken intersection lights and signs. The CCTV System enables the Central Control operator to monitor the traffic flow along the expressway. This will help the operator to get an overview of the situation. If there is an emergency or any major congestion, the relevant authority can be immediately alerted.

Gatso Meter Speed Cameras

Gatso speed cameras use radar technology and as they can be used as fixed speed cameras, fixed upon tripods, used inside moving police vehicles and in-car mobile police units, they are extremely convenient for local authorities and police forces across the UK. Because of this, they account for 90%of our fixed speed cameras. Costing approximately 20,000 per camera - or 40,000 in rural locations due to the need for a 240v power supply, the fixed Gatso cameras can take up to 400 pictures before the film runs out, and are rear-facing. They are designed this way so that when the camera flashes at a speeding motorist, it doesn't blind them and cause an accident. However this means that you often don't see a Gatso camera until the very last minute- which makes sure that the camera pays for itself relatively quickly. Often you'll find two Gatosspointing in opposite directions, to catch motorists traveling either way. Annoyingly, they are clever little machines which can distinguish between different sizes of vehicles and can also enforce separate speeding limits - e.g. on roads where cars and vans are allowed to drive at 60mph, but HGVs are restricted to 40mph, it will be able to tell which is which, and enforce the limits accordingly

Truvelo Speed Cameras

Truvelo system is steadily becoming more common and some parts of the UK nowpredominantlyusethistypeofcamera.ThreewhitelinesarepaintedjustaheadoftheTruvelo camera and there are strips in the road that register the speed of the passing vehicle and trigger the camera. By using an infra-red flash, the Truvelo camera avoids the flash that the rear Gatso cameras produce when a photograph is taken. This means that the driver doesn't see a flash but the camera can take a photograph of the driver, as well as the front of the vehicle.

SPECS CamerasSPECS work in conjunction with the Automatic Number Plate Reading (ANPR)technology. These are the cameras that you often see fixed to gantries towering overmotorways or larger roads. You might also see them on central reservations or on the road side. They are fitted with infra red illuminators and are only ever seen in groups of 2 or more. The groups of cameras are fixed at separate locations and work together to establish the average speed a vehicle is traveling at - by working out how long it took it to travelbetween each cameraposition.

SMART CAMERA: It uses radar and laser-based technology, and has a flash that cannot be seen by the human eye. It uses radar and laser-based technology, and has a flash that cannot be seen by the human eye. It is being tested at Ngauranga Gorge with a viewto extending the technology to other high-risk speeding sites. Police insist the switch todigital is not a revenue-gathering exercise, but rather a move to a more efficient and cost-effective system.

Speed cameras are a smart deterrent, a smart deterrent that will reduce speeding,improve enforcement and, most importantly, save lives.Red light cameras have clearly done their job and anti-speeding cameras would clearly be effective .In most parts of New York City, the speed limit is30 miles-per-hour.

TYPICAL APPLICDATIONS:Cameras have allowed the city to dip into the pockets of drivers who run red lightsand now there is growing political momentum to use them to punish speeders.
