Abstract

The Panoramic Area Surveillance System (PASS) provides a unique imaging and processing capability for a wide range of security and situational awareness applications. PASS comprises a network of multi-modal cameras and its operational performance is derived from a range of extensive image and data processing functions implemented as realtime software on commercially available hardware. The development of PASS has offered a number of design challenges, including the balance between implementation constraints and system performance. Within this paper, the PASS system and its development challenges are described and its operation is illustrated through a range of application examples.
