Manual video surveillance used for safety and security purposes is inefficient and privacy protection must be guaranteed. In this paper, we propose a system named ASEV that automatically assesses situations for airport surveillance. It combines four main components: a low-level image processing unit based on a new hardware implementation to extract features in real time, a high-level image processing unit for scene analysis, a real-time inference engine for scene understanding, and a data protection stage for log encryption. In addition, four often neglected aspects are successfully addressed: two-way communication between system and operator, power consumption, monitored people privacy and operator activity control. Extensive evaluation at a real airport shows that the proposed system improves the operator performance with sound and visual alerts based on the automatic assessment of v...
