Title

CCTV Video Analytic

Business Needs / Challenges

Traditional Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras are installed at strategic locations in Hong Kong to allow the Transport Department Emergency Transport Coordination Centre (ETCC) to monitor traffic condition and take remedial actions in case of emergency. There are around 1,000 fixed or pan-tilt-zoom cameras with different years of installation. At present, monitoring of camera images are performed manually by ETCC operators.  Proof of concept exercise would like to be conducted to study how Artificial Intelligence technologies could automatically monitor CCTV video and alert ETCC operators on any abnormal traffic condition.

Application Areas

Transport

Expected Outcomes

1) What type of abnormal traffic conditions can be discovered?
2) Can images from all existing cameras be adopted for automatic AI detection?
3) Any difficulties/requirements/arrangement on capturing the video images for Video Analytic purpose?
4) Estimate on the cost and schedule for full implementation.
