REAL-TIME DETECTON OF PERIODIC MOTION SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Abstract:

Provided are systems and methods for detecting periodic movement in a video stream. A system includes an imaging module configured to capture video of a scene and a logic device configured to communicate with the imaging module. The logic device is configured to receive a video sequence of the scene from the imaging module, where the received video sequence comprises one or more video regions that are pixel-wise consistent between successive frames of the received video sequence. The logic device is configured to determine a periodicity deviation with respect to at least one of the one or more video regions based, at least in part, on the at least one video region. The logic device may issue an alert based, at least in part, on the determined periodicity deviation.
