Abstract

Recently, the use of video surveillance system including CCTV is increasing. However as the data recorded through the video surveillance system is exposed, the invasion of privacy is raised. The studies on the technology of protecting privacy in addition to these organizations are actively carried out. To distinguish the human of privacy protection, the identification technique is necessary. This paper proposes the human identification method that uses height and clothing-color information appropriate for the intelligent video surveillance system. The proposed system provides the human identification by using the smartcard and camera at the building entrance and extracts the height and clothing color information of the human. In the inside of the building installed with a camera without a smartcard reader, the identification is made by using the height and color information of the human.

최근 테러 및 범죄의 증가로 CCTV를 비롯한 보안 감시시스템의 활용이 증가하고 있다. 하지만, 영상 감시시스템을 통해 기록되는 데이터가 노출되어 발생하는 프라이버시 침해라는 문제가 제기되고 있다. 이에 기존 감시카메라 시스템에서 프라이버시를 보호하기위해 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 프라이버시 보호 대상자를 판단하기 위해서는 신원확인 기술이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 대상의 키와 옷 색상 정보를 이용하여 영상 감시시스템에 적합한 신원확인 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 시스템은 건물입구에서 스마트카드와 카메라를 통해 정확한 신원확인을 하고, 대상의 키와 색상정보를 추출한다. 스마트카드 단말기가 설치되지 않고 카메라만 설치된 건물내부에서는 대상의 키와 색상정보를 이용하여 신원을 확인한다.
