COPSe (Collaboration for Public
Safety Enhancement) in an integrated platform of a set
of software tools, such as mobile audio-visual communication,
concealed weapon detection (CWD), surveillance, and video
retrieval and mining, installed in police cars or attached
to officers' uniforms. It provides police officers with
powerful technological means to fight crime and to ensure
their own safety as well as that of the environment and
citizens. COPSe is also a distributed and networked system
for providing and disseminating accurate, timely, and
reliable information, in pervasive fashion, anywhere and
anytime. One of its major components is ubiquitous and
mobile audio-visual communication system tailored to police
need using wearable devices attached to officers' uniform.
The multi-party video communication is a result of our
on-going research in video compression, wireless communication,
and video streaming. COPSe ensures inter-operability of
widely dispersed heterogeneous data streams, and uses
an evolutionary approach, in which additional technologies,
such as biometric solutions, can be included.
