Description

The IPP3000R is an configuration EPROM device used with an Altera EPF10K10 integrated circuit, provides extensive processing capabilities for use as a basic building block for new generation video based security systems. It is a video motion detector operating in real time and capable of discriminating degrees of motion as a basis for providing enhanced image motion detection. The IPP3000R uses a patented principle of locating edges in both the horizontal and vertical directions. The edges are uniquely processed to provide substantially improved results which minimizes false alarm conditions, while maximizing system sensitivity insuring positive detection. The image viewing area is subdivided into very small units (cells). The horizontal and vertical edge processed results are encoded into a single bit representing the boundary status of each cell. This approach provides a greatly reduced volume of data (128 times reduction) which represents the status of many pieces of the image. This condensed data format provides faster processing speed, as well as a significant reduction of support electronics. A typical application requires digitized image data, one IPP3000R, one EPF10K10 (up to eight multiplexed camera inputs) and two external RAM ICs, (MASK RAM optional). The EPF10K10 stores a status representation of the reference image in external RAM. It then compares the real time representation of the image with the stored reference image and determines the degree of change. If the change exceeds a user selected tolerance for motion, an alarm output flag is set. This flag sets/resets each field of the image. An update of the reference image can be directed by an external timer or manual/computer-controlled directive. There are two user determined modes of external timer motion detection available. One selects change of the real time image from the reference image. The other detects only the new edge conditions (intruder boundary). The masking option allows the user to ignore specific areas of view. The EPF10K10 can support up to eight multiplexed camera inputs, using RS170 cameras and a video digitizer, with a 7.5 image sample/second rate for each.
