Scenario: Abandoned object.
The detection of abandoned objects is more or less the detection of idle (stationary or non-moving) objects that remain stationary over a certain period of time. The period of time is adjustable. In several types of scenes, idle objects should be detected. In a parking lot e.g., an idle object can be a parked car or a left suitcase. For this scenario we are not looking at the object types “person” or “car”, but at unidentified objects, called “unknown objects”. An unknown object is any object that is not a person or a vehicle. In general, unknown objects cannot move.
What should be detected?
Whenever an unknown object appears in the scene and remains stationary for some amount of time person, an alarm needs to be generated. This alarm must remain active, as long as the unknown object remains stationary.
Criteria for verification
- Is the alarm generated (yes/no)?
- How correct is the timing of the alarm (start delay, overall time overlap)
- Position correctness (object should not move, so position can be verified)
Sub-scenarios
Specific, more detailed descriptions of the scenario that can be used for creation of real video scenes for the actual verification.
