Smart Cameras in Barcelona

From SecurityInfoWatch.com:

The press releases are in full force with examples of how smart cameras are being deployed. Today's news is from ObjectVideo and the project is in Barcelona. The story states:

the Metro will use the ObjectVideo system to identify intruders in what the Barcelona Metro considers "employee only" areas, such as tunnels, restricted station areas and train parking lots . . . including the surveillance of station platforms, abandoned luggage and even "abnormal behavior by passengers."

The story also notes that accuracy has improved in recent years. For example, ObjectVideo "has written algorithms that are not false-tripped by recurring elements, such as arriving trains."
