Title: Mise en mémoire tampon de l'audio dans des systèmes d'alarme vocale bidirectionnels
Inventor: FOISY STEPHANE
IPC: G08B13/16
Filed: 2012-07-12
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système d'alarme comprenant un tableau d'alarme qui signale des conditions d'alarme détectées dans des locaux à un serveur de surveillance sur un réseau à commutation par paquets. Le tableau d'alarme détecte également et met en mémoire tampon l'audio dans les locaux. En réponse à une condition d'alarme détectée, l'audio en mémoire tampon, qui a été mis en mémoire tampon avant de signaler la condition d'alarme détectée, est transféré vers le poste de surveillance. Le tableau d'alarme peut en outre recevoir l'audio en direct des locaux. Les données représentant l'audio en direct et l'audio en mémoire tampon peuvent être transférées simultanément, permettant ainsi à un opérateur se trouvant dans un centre de télésurveillance d'écouter l'audio résultant d'événements avant et après qu'une alarme a été signalée. Le système d'alarme peut en outre permettre une communication en temps réel entre le centre de surveillance et le tableau.

Abstract: A reduction in processing time of a process giving a blurring effect is achieved. An image conversion apparatus (100) extracts from among pixel rows parallel to an object pixel row, a pixel row of  y =7 as a first pixel row overlapping an aperture shape (101). The image conversion apparatus (100) further extracts a pixel row of  y =4 as a second pixel row having the number of pixels successively overlapping the aperture shape (101) equal to or greater than that of the first pixel row. The image conversion apparatus (100) calculates a value of a second pixel in the case of converting an original image (IN), by referring to a storage unit that stores a value of a first pixel in the case of converting the original image (IN). For example, the image conversion apparatus (100) defines an average of the value of the first pixel in the case of converting the original image (IN), a value of a diffusion source pixel (IN[5][2]), and a diffusion source pixel (IN[5][3]) as the value of the second pixel in the case of converting the original image (IN).
