Thanks all for your responses, they have been very helpful. Andrew (and all) - do you know of any published material relating to pedestrian trajectory mapping from CCTV images? i.e., the kind of work done by Hitachi and Shibasaki labs in Japan that you refer to?

I think that's the one they worked on with Jon Kerridge, previously mentioned by in this thread. The main problem we found with infra-red generally was the need for overhead mounting: when we did site surveys, there weren't many street locations where we could do this. I'm sure that there may well be large potential for indoor sites, but real-life implementation outdoors in the public realm proved to be very difficult. Because of this, it wasn't carried forward into the second set of trials. Regards, Andrew This message has been scanned for viruses by MailControl - www.mailcontrol.com
