Abstract

Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for origination camera technology that generates a cell representation of a local space associated with an origination camera in a multicast domain, predicts that an object in the local space will exit the local space and enter one or more adjacent spaces associated with additional cameras in the multicast domain, and sends the cell representation and a trajectory of the object to the additional cameras before the object exits the local space. Additionally, transition camera technology may generate a leader election message based on a multicasted trajectory of an object and a predicted trajectory of the object, send the leader election message from a transition camera to one or more additional cameras in a multicast domain, and track the object in the local space in response to a leader notification message.

Claims (19)

1. At least one computer readable storage medium comprising a set of executable program instructions, which when executed by an origination camera in a multicast domain, cause the origination camera to:

generate a cell representation of a local space associated with the origination camera, wherein the cell representation is to include a plurality of cells that provide a soft tiling of the local space, wherein the plurality of cells is to include a first set of cells corresponding to observed inactivity and a second set of cells corresponding to observed activity, and wherein the first set of cells is to include unoccupied cells;

predict that an object in the local space will exit the local space and enter one or more adjacent spaces associated with one or more additional cameras in the multicast domain; and

send the cell representation and a trajectory of the object to at least one of the one or more additional cameras before the object exits the local space.

2. The at least one computer readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of cells is to include a third set of cells corresponding to predicted activity.

3. The at least one computer readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the cell representation is to include one or more features of the object.

4. The at least one computer readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the cell representation is to include a fixed number of cells.

5. The at least one computer readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the origination camera to reduce one or more of a computational activity of the origination camera or a power consumption of the origination camera after the cell representation and the trajectory are sent.

6. A semiconductor apparatus comprising:

one or more substrates; and

logic coupled to the one or more substrates, wherein the logic is implemented at least partly in one or more of configurable logic or fixed-functionality hardware logic, the logic coupled to the one or more substrates to:

generate a cell representation of a local space associated with an origination camera in a multicast domain, wherein the cell representation is to include a plurality of cells that provide a soft tiling of the local space, wherein the plurality of cells is to include a first set of cells corresponding to observed inactivity and a second set of cells corresponding to observed activity, and wherein the first set of cells is to include unoccupied cells;

predict that an object in the local space will exit the local space and enter one or more adjacent spaces associated with one or more additional cameras in the multicast domain; and

send the cell representation and a trajectory of the object to at least one of the one or more additional cameras before the object exits the local space.

7. The semiconductor apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the plurality of cells is to include a third set of cells corresponding to predicted activity.

8. The semiconductor apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the cell representation is to include one or more features of the object.

9. The semiconductor apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the cell representation is to include a fixed number of cells.

10. The semiconductor apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the logic coupled to the one or more substrates is to reduce one or more of a computational activity of the origination camera or a power consumption of the origination camera after the cell representation and the trajectory are sent.

11. The semiconductor apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the logic coupled to the one or more substrates includes transistor channel regions that are positioned within the one or more substrates.
