MULTI-CAMERA VISION SYSTEM AND METHOD OF MONITORING

A multi-camera vision system and method of monitoring. In one embodiment imaging systems provide object classifications with cameras positioned to receive image data from a field of view to classify an object among multiple classifications. A control unit receives classification or position information of objects and (ii) displays an image corresponding to a classified object relative to the position of the structure. An embodiment of a related method monitors positions of an imaged object about a boundary by continually capturing at least first and second series of image frames, each series comprising different fields of view of a scene about the boundary, with some of the image frames in the first series covering a wide angle field of view and some of the image frames in the second series covering no more than a narrow angle field of view.
