Abstract :
This paper describes a smart camera system under development at Princeton University. This smart camera is designed for use in a smart room in which the camera detects the presence of a person in its visual field and determines when various gestures are made by the person. As a first step toward a VLSI implementation, we use Trimedia processors hosted by a PC. This paper describes the relationship between the algorithms used for human activity detection and the architectures required to perform these tasks in real time
