Abstract

           Detecting human beings accurately in a visual surveillance system is crucial for diverse application areas including abnormal event detection, human gait characterization, congestion analysis, person identification, gender classification and fall detection for elderly people. The first step of the detection process is to detect an object which is in motion. Object detection could be performed using YOLOv7, optical flow and spatio-temporal filtering techniques. Once detected, a moving object could be classified as a human being using shape-based, texture-based or motion-based features. A comprehensive review with comparisons on available techniques for detecting human beings in surveillance videos is presented in this paper.

The characteristics of few benchmark datasets as well as the future research directions on human detection have also been discussed. We can use camera for Human Motion Detection. The Camera is used to catch the live images of the area in which it is being implemented, if any object is moving. The captured images are stored for further work. If motion is found in this video, the computer will start recording, buzz an alarm and send SMS to people listed in its database. In this way the system will provide the security against any misdeed.
