Abstract:

FITIS-JU is a major Serbian supplier of video surveillance systems (VSS), with a well-developed sales network. Apart from national references in SERBIA, FITIS-JU has provided security equipment for many objects in MONTENEGRO, RUSSIA and UKRAINE. So far, FITIS-JU has provided complete VSS solutions for numerous large objects. Contemporary video surveillance systems rely heavily on intensive human effort for detecting and assessing threats. Nowadays, the technology has reached a stage where mounting cameras to capture video imagery is cheap, but finding available human resources to watch the footage full-time is expensive and unreliable. Besides being unable to maintain constant attention for long periods of time, humans cannot process a load of information contained in complicated scenes. In modern surveillance systems, automated solutions are sought instead of humans for continuously analysing the imagery. Intensive research in the fields of computer and video technology in the last decade has resulted in the development of clever algorithms that can automatically analyse video data and make decisions about the content.
