The imaging system includes an event sensor, an image sensor, and a controller. The event sensor is configured obtain an event data set of the targeted scene according to variations of light intensity sensed by pixels of the event sensor when an event occurs in the targeted scene. The image sensor is configured capture a visual image of the targeted scene. The controller is configured to detect human according to the event data set, trigger the image sensor to capture the visual image when the human is detected, and detect the human-object interaction in the targeted scene according to the visual image and a series of event data sets obtained by the event sensor during the event.

A method of producing a model to detect changes in forest cover is disclosed. The method includes obtaining forest-cover classification data of a land area. The land area includes one or more subregions having unchanged forest-cover classifications between a first time and a second time. The method further includes obtaining image data of the subregions at multiple times. For at least one forest-cover classification, the method includes applying a statistical analysis to the image data to determine one or more threshold values representing measurement variations. The method further includes comparing subsequently obtained image data to the one or more threshold values and classifying the one or more subregions as changed or unchanged based on the comparison of subsequently obtained image data to the one or more threshold values.

The disclosed technology includes image-based systems and methods for object tracking within an asset area. Some exemplary methods include receiving an indication of a first object entering an asset area and receiving data indicative of a plurality of captured images. The methods also include performing, by at least one processor, object classification of the first object based on one or more of the plurality of captured images. The methods further include determining a first object location of the first object based at least in part on the object classification, and outputting an indication of the first object location.

Processes, systems, and devices for occlusion detection for video-based object tracking (VBOT) are described herein. Embodiments process video frames to compute histogram data and depth level data for the object to detect a subset of video frames for occlusion events and generate output data that identifies each video frame of the subset of video frames for the occlusion events. Threshold measurement values are used to attempt to reduce or eliminate false positives to increase processing efficiency.
