Our team’s entry was entitled “Visual Analytics System for Pandemic Management during COVID-19”. It made use of AI-based video analytics for Control and Contact Tracking functions. By utilizing various AI models developed by the ROSE lab, the proposed platform can perform quick person searches and contact tracking within a network of surveillance cameras. It proactively monitors the area by raising alarms on the social distancing violation, detecting people without a face mask, and showing the population density heat map for crowd control.
