Abstract :
A system for face detection in outdoor environments for multisensor video surveillance applications is presented. The system is characterized by a combination of two pan-tilt video cameras, which cooperate in order to track and to characterize moving objects with positioning and biometric informations. The final result of the action of the system is the collection of small video shots regarding the face of humans detected in outdoor environments with a robust behavior.
