Fast prototyping of automatic real-time event detection facilities for video monitoring using DSP module

This paper presents a concept for fast prototyping of real-time hardware/software video processing systems for urban surveillance monitoring equipment. The evaluation module with the TMS320DM6437 signal processor linked with the Code Composer Studio through Matlab/Simulink has been used. The processed video signals have been acquired using BOSCH NBC-255-P network camera with the CMOS ¼" sensor. We analyzed efficiency of implementation of the algorithms using two examples: detection of painting theft and signaling of crossing a pedestrian pass at the red light.
