Visual surveillance is the latest paradigm for social security through machine intelligence. It includes the use of visual data captured by infrared sensors or visible-light cameras mounted in cars, corridors, traffic signals etc. Visual surveillance facilitates the classification of human behavior, crowd activity, and gesture analysis to achieve application-specific objectives.
