Image processing apparatus based on open platform and protocol conversion method used for the same
First Claim
1. An image processing system comprising:
- a network camera configured to capture an original image of an object;
a detector configured to detect a speed of movement of the object;
an image processing apparatus comprising at least one processor to implement;
an open platform-compatible unit configured to determine a protocol that is used by a video analysis application installed in or connected to the image processing apparatus, select channel information from among channel information about the original image, channel information about an encoded image of the original image, and channel information about a decoded image of the encoded image, according to the determined protocol, and receive the selected channel information; and
a protocol conversion unit configured to process an input image to comply with the determined protocol, based on the channel information that is received at the open platform-compatible unit,wherein the open platform-compatible unit selects and receives the channel information about the original image based on the speed detected by the detector being over a predetermined threshold, and the open platform-compatible unit selects and receives the channel information about at least one from among the encoded image and the decoded image based on the speed detected by the detector being under the predetermined threshold.

Abstract
Provided is an image processing apparatus and method that may employ a new program or protocol without having to additionally develop a new program or a protocol for image processing. The image processing apparatus may include: an open platform-compatible unit configured to determine a protocol that is used by a video analysis application installed in or connected to the image processing apparatus, and receive at least one of channel information about an original image, channel information about an encoded image, channel information about a decoded image, resolution information about the decoded image and frame rate information that is required to receive the decoded image, in accordance with the determined protocol; and a protocol conversion unit configured to process an input image to comply with the determined protocol, based on the at least one information that is received at the open platform-compatible unit.

11. An image processing method comprising:
-
receiving an input image of an object from a network camera; detecting, by a detector, a speed of movement of the object; determining a protocol that is used by a video analysis application installed in or connected to an image processing apparatus; selecting channel information from among channel information about an original image of the object, channel information about an encoded image of the original image, and channel information about a decoded image of the encoded image, according to the determined protocol, and receiving the selected channel information; and processing the input image to comply with the determined protocol based on the channel information that is received at an open platform-compatible unit, wherein the selecting the channel information comprises selecting the channel information about the original image based on the speed detected by the detector being over a predetermined threshold, and selecting the channel information about at least one from among the encoded image and the decoded image based on the speed detected by the detector being under the predetermined threshold. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
