Abstract
An in-vehicle violence detection and fusion system includes a standard vehicle camera positioned within a vehicle capturing images of at least one occupant of the vehicle. An event camera positioned within the vehicle captures motion images of the at least one occupant. A standard vehicle camera-based region of interest (ROI) signal and an event camera-based ROI signal are received and fused by an ROI fusion module to generate a fused ROI signal. A threat evaluation module receives the fused ROI signal and augments the fused ROI signal with saved data to assist in differentiating normal events from threat events. An event camera-based violence indicator identifies the threat events to the at least one occupant of the vehicle.
