Abstract
Guard safety in a corrections facility may be improved by processing a video stream to identify guards that are present based at least in part on their apparel and to identify inmates that are present based at least in part on their apparel. A determination is made as to a number of guards that are present and a number of inmates that are present. A first alarm is issued when a ratio (R) of the number of guards that are present in the region of the corrections facility and the number of inmates that are present in the region of the corrections facility falls below a Guard Safety Ratio Threshold (GSRT). A second alarm may be issued when a separation distance between one or more of the inmates and a guard falls below a Guard Safety Spacing Threshold (GSST).
