Abstract:
1. A multisensor processing system for surveillance, comprising: an enclosure for enclosing and mounting components of the system in a unified package mountable to survey a surveillance environment; a sensor mounting surface provided within the enclosure, for geometrically arranging sensors before deployment of the system into the surveillance environment; a pair of spaced-apart first sensors mounted to the mounting surface arranged to sense within a first field of view, each of the first sensors having a predetermined first resolution and a first frame rate; a second sensor mounted to the mounting surface arranged to sense within a second field of view, the second sensor having a second frame rate and a predetermined second resolution higher than the first resolution, wherein the first sensors and the second sensor are spatially positioned on the mounting surface prior to being deployed into the surveillance environment such that the second field of view of the second sensor is coextensive with at least a portion of the first field of view of the pair of spaced-apart first sensors; a signal processing subsystem within the enclosure coupled to receive signals from the first sensors and the second sensor, the signal processing subsystem including a programmed processor and memory for storing data and instructions for the processor, the processor operative to execute instructions to: whereby the signals from the second sensor may be searched and accessed by reference to object identifiers, synchronized frames of the first and second sensors, and/or object metadata.
