Abstract

Today surveillance cameras are used in many places like hospitals, museums, ATM centres etc for security purpose. Since videos captured by such cameras are time consuming, most of them are never watched. Inorder to conserve time, an abstract of the video is generated using the Rack-through Method. In the abstract video, most of the activity of the long video is condensed by simultaneously showing several actions, even when they originally occurred at different times. The abstract video also gives an index into the original video by pointing to the original time of each activity.
