Abstract: A method of monitoring a scene by a camera (7) comprises marking a part (14) of the scene with light having a predefined spectral content and a spatial verification pattern. An analysis image is captured of the scene by a sensor sensitive to the predefined spectral content. The analysis image is segmented based on the predefined spectral content, to find a candidate image region. A spatial pattern is detected in the candidate image region, and a characteristic of the detected spatial pattern is compared to a corresponding characteristic of the spatial verification pattern. If the characteristics match, the candidate image region is identified as a verified image region corresponding to the marked part (14) of the scene. Image data representing the scene is obtained, and image data corresponding to the verified image region is processed in a first manner, and remaining image data is processed in a second manner.

Abstract: There is provided a method for determining the reliability of a fault detection of a camera in a camera system. According to the method data relating to environmental conditions are received (204) and compared to accessed (202) criteria relating to environmental conditions external to the camera and affecting the reliability of the fault detection test. If the received data complies with the criteria it is determined (206) that the fault detection test gives a reliable result. This is advantageous in that false fault detection tests may be identified.

Abstract: An image acquisition device and a method for capturing image data is disclosed. The method comprises exposing an image sensor to light from a scene, selecting substantially all rows of sensor pixels in an image sensor in a substantially random order, starting an exposure period for each row of sensor pixels in the image sensor in the order the rows were selected, buffering the rows of sensor pixels comprised in an image frame until all rows of the image frame have registered image data for the presently captured image frame, and outputting image data representing the image frame by outputting image data from each row of sensor pixels.
Abstract translation: 公开了一种用于捕获图像数据的图像获取装置和方法。 该方法包括将图像传感器曝光到场景的光,基本上随机的顺序选择图像传感器中的基本上所有行的传感器像素,以图像传感器中的行的顺序为每行传感器像素开始曝光周期 选择,缓冲包括在图像帧中的传感器像素的行,直到图像帧的所有行都具有用于当前捕获的图像帧的已登记图像数据,并且通过从每行传感器像素输出图像数据来输出表示图像帧的图像数据。
