VIDEO PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18318070 titled 'VIDEO PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The present invention is a technique for accurately determining whether an object in a video is a living body, even with a short one-second video.
- The technique involves a video processing apparatus that analyzes video data of the object, which is made up of multiple frames.
- The video processing apparatus includes a correction unit that corrects each frame of the video data based on a correction coefficient. This correction is done to adjust the colors of different target hues.
- The apparatus also includes a determination unit that determines whether the object is a living body based on the average hue value of the object's skin area in each corrected frame.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Surveillance systems: The technique can be used to quickly determine if a person is present in a video feed, aiding in security and monitoring applications.
- Medical diagnostics: The technology can be applied to analyze video data of skin areas to detect abnormalities or diseases.
- Human-computer interaction: The technique can be used in gesture recognition systems, where it can determine if a hand or body movement is performed by a living body.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Accurate identification: The technique provides a high degree of accuracy in determining whether an object is a living body, even with short video clips.
- Efficiency: The analysis can be performed quickly, making it suitable for real-time applications.
- Robustness: The correction of colors based on different target hues helps to ensure accurate determination, even in varying lighting conditions or different skin tones.
Benefits of this technology:
- Time-saving: The technique can quickly analyze video data and determine if an object is a living body, reducing the need for manual inspection.
- Accuracy: The high degree of accuracy in determining living bodies can aid in various applications, such as security or medical diagnostics.
- Versatility: The technique can be applied to different types of video data and objects, making it adaptable to various scenarios.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present invention provides a technique for determining whether an object is a living body with a high degree of accuracy even for a relatively short video of about one second. To achieve this, a video processing apparatus configured to determine whether an object is a living body from video data of the object constituted by a plurality of frames, comprises a correction unit configured to correct each of the plurality of frames constituting the video data based on a correction coefficient for correcting to colors of a plurality of target hues different from each other; and a determination unit configured to determine whether the object is a living body based on an average hue value of a skin area of the object in each of the plurality of frames being corrected.
