Challenges in Video Analytics

  • Chapter
Book cover Embedded Computer Vision

Part of the book series: Advances in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition ((ACVPR))

Abstract

Video analytics technology has matured and found application in a variety of fields over the past decade. This chapter discusses the current state-ofthe-art, and describes challenges for future video analytics implementations. Current applications and markets for video analytics are described in the context of a processing pipeline. Application-specific challenges are described with potential solutions to those challenges. This chapter also lists some implementation considerations for embedded video analytics and concludes with future and emerging applications of video analytics.
