Dr. Terence Sim is going to visit Alpen-Adria-Universitaet Klagenfurt on May 6th 2015. Terence is an Associate Professor at National University of Singapore working on face processing techniques. In his talk Terence will discuss his recent work on "Controllable Face Privacy" where he is able to de-identify faces by altering certain attributes while keeping others unchanged. The talk is scheduled for Wednesday May 6th 2015 at 11:00 (s.t.) and is going to take place in the Lakeside Labs seminar room (L4.1.114).
The abstract of Ternece's talk and his be are available for download. More information about Ternece and his work is available on his website.
]]>The TrustEYE project was presented in a talk on September 12th, 2014 at the summer school on Assistive Technologies in Interactive and Cognitive Environments (ATICE) in Vilanova i la Geltru, Spain. The lecture covered basic security and privacy requirements in visual sensor networks and showcased the TrustEYE.M4 platform as an example of a trustworthy camera node. The slides of the talk can be downloaded from the publications section.
On June 6th the TrustEYE project participated in the Austrian Computer Science Day 2014 taking place at Graz University of Technology. Prof. Rinner gave a talk on privacy protection, security and self-organization in camera networks. A live demo of our TrustEYE.M4 prototype was shown as well. The TrustEYE project was also featured in a radio interview which aired on June 10th on OE1.
A recording of the interview is available below.
]]>We are happy to announce that the TrustEYE project will be represented with two papers at the 11th edition of the IEEE International Conference on Advanced Video and Signal-Based Surveillance (AVSS) taking place in Seoul, Korea in August 2014.
Our two papers at AVSS'14 are:
TrustEYE.M4: Protecting the Sensor - not the Camera
(T. Winkler, Á. Erdélyi and B. Rinner)
Adaptive Cartooning for Privacy Protection in Camera Networks
(Á. Erdélyi, T. Barát, P. Valet, T. Winkler and B. Rinner)
Authors' versions of the publications are available in our publications section.
Details about the talk and the speaker are provided in the Abstract.
The slides from the talk are now availabel for download: Presentation Slides
]]>The project focuses on the development of security features and privacy protection techniques for smart cameras in monitoring applications. Within the project we explore novel hybrid ARM/FPGA system on chip solutions and the concept of physical unclonable functions as a basis for providing security close to the image sensor.
Detailed information about the position can be found here: ProSecCo Job Offer
]]>The second one is a book chapter for the upcoming book Intelligent Multimedia Surveillance: Current Trends and Research. The chapter's title is Privacy and Security in Video Surveillance (authors: T. Winkler and B. Rinner, Springer, ISBN 978-3-642-41511-1).
Authors' versions of the publications are available in our publications section.
]]>The TrustEYE project participates in the 2013 edition of the MediaEval Benchmarking Initiative for Multimedia Evaluation workshop taking place in Barcelona from October 18-19th. Our work entitled "Serious Fun: Cartooning for Privacy Protection" will be presented by Ádám Erdélyi in the session on visual privacy. The working note paper can found on our publications section.
]]>The latest revision of the TrustEYE.M4 prototype is now assembled and the related software components are evolving rapidly. The platform is based on a Cortex M4 microcontroller (168Mhz) and provides 4MB of external SRAM. A LiPo battery and a WiFi extension board allow us to operate the system as a standalone node in a visual sensor network. Background information can be found in the prototypes section.
