Abstract
A tracking system includes a camera subsystem that includes cameras that capture vide of a space. Each camera is coupled with a camera client that determines local coordinates of people in the captured video. The camera clients generate frames that include color frames and depth frames labeled with an identifier number of the camera and their corresponding timestamps. The camera clients generate tracks that include metadata describing historical people detections, tracking identifications, timestamps, and the identifier number of the camera. The camera clients send the frames and tracks to cluster servers that maintain the frames and tracks such that they are retrievable using their corresponding labels. A camera server queries the cluster servers to receive the frames and tracks using their corresponding labels. The camera server determines the physical positions of people in the space based on the determined local coordinates.
