Abstract
An information content of a section of a current image of a series of images of a video signal is calculated, wherein the video signal has to be fed to an algorithm for calculating and indicating detections of objects in the video signal. If the calculated information content of the section of the current image is smaller than a threshold value, the calculation and indication of detections of objects for the section of at least the current image or the current image and further images of the series of images is suppressed.
