Method and device for consistent region of interest
First Claim
1. A method for maintaining proper mapping of a mapped region of interest with respect to a region of interest, the method including:
- receiving feedback regarding motion of a surveillance camera; and
remapping the mapped region of interest based on feedback received such that the mapped region of interest corresponds with the region of interest.

Abstract
The present invention describes a system and method for surveillance cameras that maintain proper mapping of a mapped region of interest with an imaged region of interest based on feedback received regarding the current orientation of a surveillance camera. The system or method first determines the location of the imaged region of interest within the surveillance camera'"'"'s imaged current field of view based on mechanical or imaged feedback, or a combination of both. The system or method then remaps the mapped region of interest within the surveillance camera'"'"'s imaged current field of view such that the mapped region of interest is coextensive with the imaged region of interest.

15. A method for maintaining a mapped region of interest in the proper location, the method comprising:
-
compiling an image database representative of a total possible viewing area available to a camera; using the image database to complete a composite field of view of the total possible viewing area available to the camera; defining a region of interest with respect to a location of the region of interest within the composite field of view; moving the camera to a current field of view within the total possible viewing area available to the camera; comparing the current field of view with the composite field of view to determine orientation of the camera and location of the region of interest within; and setting a mapped region of interest to be coextensive with the location of the region of interest. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
