The demonstrator shows how the INMOVE tools can be integrated with other existing tools and components to form a system that can fulfil the given objectives. The complete system is designed to communicate over mobile data connections and running on mobile computer platforms. A mobile surveillance system can be used everywhere a need for surveillance and protection of people, goods and assets is required, e.g.money transportation between banks with a high risk of attack and lorry transports for both driver and goods protection. With a dual or multi camera set-up the system demonstrates automatic detection and tracking of moving objects around a vehicle using PTZ or panoramic view cameras. The video signal from the moving camera is compressed and sent over the mobile data communication link along with the GPS position to a control centre, who can monitor and take appropriate action.

The Sports Viewing Prototype demonstrates use of intelligent tools providing video processing and mobile communication technology. The Scientific Results include the advancement of computer vision technology in a novel sports viewing application (including several publications); the Commercial Results comprise the software and the opportunities identified for using it. A prototype application has been developed and trialed using tools developed by project partners. The application uses several cameras fixed around the stadium. Their input is automatically processed to find the positions of the players and ball. This can be displayed as an animation of the game. This information can be sent over several different channels, e.g. digital TV, digital radio, the internet, and cellular phone networks; to be displayed on TV, all types of computers, and advanced phones. The implementation of the application was divided into tools, completed separately by multiple project partners. These tools are available via the in move toolkit website, and some of them are also used in other applications. The prototype comprises the software (tools) for video processing and data communication; and the installation of appropriate components at a sports stadium, to run it. The potential applications (and end users) for this result are entertainment services for spectators, and coaching tools for sports club. Content Providers and Rights Holders are intermediate users of the application. The Main Features and Benefits of the proposed application are: - It can satisfy the user 'need' of the sports fan for information when other channels are unavailable. - It has the potential to be first to market; technology to track sports players using cameras is state-of-the-art. - Variations on the proposed service can be used in many contexts, e.g. mobile phone, laptop, digital TV and radio, etc. This is a useful feature for an operator, and also safeguards the result against a reliance on a single transmission medium. The Result comprises the following: - The Software (tools) to deliver a service by video processing the data - A Prototype installation of the applciation at a trial venue. - An Analysis of the market and the value added by the introduction of tools for the evaluation of deployment by company or licence. The Key Innovative Features include: - It is a novel real-time sports information service, to be available on the internet and mobile phones. - Successful automated real time tracking of players has not been previously published. - There are tangible advances in computer vision and data transmission and display technology. The Current Status of the result is that Offline results have been demonstrated and trialed, and a prototype for delivering an on-line ('real time') service is nearing completion. This will be completed and demonstrated to key industry players who have already expressed an interest in participating in the development of the application in a commercial context. 'Seed Funding' for this work has been pursued by a project partner. It is expected that exploitation of the relevant INMOVE tools will benefit the community of sports teams, both large and small, and their spectators; and the project partners whose tools are gainfully employed. More generally, it will help increase the availability of applications requiring technology that is similar to or derived from tools produced by this project. This will benefit to the community at large through more widespread use of appropriate technology to generate goods and services.

The INMOVE Toolkit consists of The Toolkit Framework and mobile / video / audio software modules or simply tools. The INMOVE Toolkit Framework consists of the following major components: - A web-based Toolkit User Interface (UI), which forms the main portal to the toolkit. It can be used to browse, and modify information about the tools in the toolkit from an arbitrary computer, using an Internet browser. It allows further the downloading of the selected tools, and facilitates communication between the tools providers and users (bug reporting), as well as among the users (discussion forum). - A collection of utility tools - the so-called INMOVE Software Development Kit (SDK), facilitating inter-operability among the INMOVE tools. The SDK provides basic interfacing primitives, based on the specifications by INMOVE, intended to orchestrate and accelerate the combination of the current and future tools into valid INMOVE applications. - A number of toolkit demonstration applications, at least one for each normal / utility (SDK) tool. - The Toolkit Wizard is a graphical web interface that may be used for building own tool combinations using few simple steps. After downloading the desired tools, you may use the web service for creating any tool combination/configuration by editing visual graph representation of the setup. The final setup may be tried out by simply downloading (and executing) the created configuration and batch files from the service. The Tools: - A collection of mobile / audio / video tools (from each involved partner), which comply to the most requirements specified in the project (we call them also INMOVE compliant), among others with respect to interfacing, documentation and demonstration. Most of these tools internally use the INMOVE SDK. The list of the tools per end of August: - AttachMetadata; - Camera Calibration; - Capture; - Create; - Display; - GE_Difference; - GE_Tracker; - ImageMagick; - JMF; - MediaConverter; - MobileAnimation; - Nokia Multimedia Converter; - OpenCV; - Pipe; - SendMMS; - SMODEC; - Sports Content Generating. The details of the tools can be found at the INMOVE Toolkit web-site: http://inmove.erve.vtt.fi/toolkit.html More information on the INMOVE project can be found at: http://inmove.erve.vtt.fi/
The objective of the Service Station Application was to provide the service station personnel with means of surveying the service station surroundings. Examples of those means included the collecting of the video sequences and images on suspicious objects, and tracking and visualising their appearances in the clear and comprehensive ways. The output of the application was transmitted through fixed/wireless networks to users having PCs or mobile terminals. The animation of the movement of the objects (cars, men) on PDAs was found especially useful by the actual users in the trials. The INMOVE tools were widely used for the application.

TNO has developed a surveillance system using INMOVE video/MMS tools, which keeps an eye on, for example, elderly residents in their own house, using intelligent sensors (a.o. cameras). The system collects the information from various sensors, analyses it and autonomously draws conclusions, which may result in triggering actions of emergency services. The system enables elderly to live longer in their own house. Field trials of this so-called Unattended Autonomous Surveillance (UAS) system have recently been successfully completed. The idea of the UAS system is that the technology keeps an eye on the residents in their own house. When a worrisome change in the state of the house or the resident occurs, the system first makes contact with the resident(s) and subsequently with the emergency services, when necessary. In such case, the contacted service has very detailed information about the occurring alarming situation at its disposal. The information can be reached through Internet of mobile phone (using e-mail, SMS, streaming video or Multimedia Messaging System MMS for still images from the house). This dramatically improves the situation awareness of the emergency personnel, which results in more efficient handling of alarms. The demonstration system has been mainly developed as part of the Unattended Autonomous Surveillance (UAS) project of TNO, started in January 2001. Most of the development work has been performed outside the INMOVE project. The implementation of the demonstration system, and specifically its video/MMS subsystems as well as the trial of the demonstrator (evaluation) were performed within the INMOVE project.

The Intelligent Monitoring Demonstrator is able to successfully localise multiple users within a large environment of interest and to broadcast location information in a variety of heterogeneous platforms (i.e. desktop PCs, PDAs, etc). The user receives in his mobile terminal, namely a palmtop or a third generation mobile phone, positioning information obtained by a multi-camera system. In particular an animated map shows in real time position of objects detected on the scene by the network of video cameras. Moving icons indicate trajectories of objects. Combining Image Processing Tools with Networking Tools and delivering data on heterogeneous mobile platform automatically generated contents regarding a scene of interest; the implemented system is useful for those users, which desire to monitor a particular area of interest in real time.
