Popis: | Depth data from conventional cameras in monitoring fields provides a thorough assessment of human behavior. In this context, the depth of each viewpoint must be calculated using binocular stereo, which requires two cameras to retrieve 3D data. In networked surveillance environments, this drives excess energy and also provides extra infrastructure. We launched a new computational photographic technique for depth estimation using a single camera based on the ideas of perspective projection and lens magnification property. The person to camera distance (or depth) is obtained from understanding the focal length, field of view and magnification characteristics. Prior to finding distance, initially real height is estimated using Human body anthropometrics. These metrics are given as inputs to the Gradient-Boosting machine learning algorithm for estimating Real Height. And then magnification and Field of View measurements are extracted for each sample. The depth (or distance) is predicted on the basis of the geometrical relationship between field of view, magnification and camera at object distance. Using physical distance and height measurements taken in real time as ground truth, experimental validation is performed and it is inferred that with in 3m–7 m range, both in indoor and outdoor environments, the camera to person distance (Preddist) anticipated from field of view and magnification is 91% correlated with actual depth at a confidence point of 95% with RMSE of 0.579. |
