Time-of-Flight (TOF) cameras relate to a very recent and growing technology which has already proved to be useful for computer vision tasks. In this paper we investigate on the use of a TOF camera to perform video-based graffiti detection, which can be thought of as a monitoring system able to detect acts of vandalism such as dirtying, etching and defacing walls and objects surfaces. Experimental results show promising capabilities of the proposed approach, with improvements expected as the technology gets more mature.

Abstract
Time-of-Flight (TOF) cameras relate to a very recent and growing technology which has already proved to be useful for computer vision tasks. In this paper we investigate on the use of a TOF camera to perform video-based graffiti detection, which can be thought of as a monitoring system able to detect acts of vandalism such as dirtying, etching and defacing walls and objects surfaces. Experimental results show promising capabilities of the proposed approach, with improvements expected as the technology gets more mature.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
