ITU-T F.735.1 PDF

Currently, with the development of hardware and intelligent algorithms, various intelligent algorithms are developed for a large number of scenarios. In order to meet the various scenarios and requirements, cameras supporting algorithms on-demand deployment and online upgrade without service interruption are needed. A software-defined camera is a kind of intelligent premises unit (IPU), see [ITU-T F.743.1], which provides a technical approach to decoupling hardware and software and to support algorithms on-demand deployment, online upgrade without service interruption and continuous online learning to adapt to various scenarios. This Recommendation defines the typical scenarios, functional architecture and requirements of such software-defined cameras.

The scope of this Recommendation includes:

1) typical scenarios of software-defined cameras;

2) the functional architecture of software-defined cameras;

3) the requirements of software-defined cameras.
