Tracking Moving Objects by a Mobile Camera
نویسندگان
چکیده
A system for video tracking of a moving object by the robot-held camera is presented, and efficient tracking methods are proposed. We describe our initial implementation of a system which is capable of tracking a single moving object against highly textured background. A pyramid-based image processor, PVM-1 is employed to support some fast algorithms in locating the moving object from the difference image. Object tracking is accomplished in the static look-and-move mode by the translational motion of a CCD camera mounted on the robot arm. Discussion is given on the implementation of tracking filters and on the effective utilization of multi-resolution processing for the object searching. Finally a method for dynamic look-andmove tracking is proposed for the future improvement of tracking performance.

Moving Vehicle Tracking Using Disjoint View Multicameras
Multicamera vehicle tracking is a necessary part of any video-based intelligent transportation system for extracting different traffic parameters such as link travel times and origin/destination counts. In many applications, it is needed to locate traffic cameras disjoint from each other to cover a wide area. This paper presents a method for tracking moving vehicles in such camera networks. The...
متن کاملLocation-Based Tracking of Moving Obstacles from a Mobile Robot
Tracking moving obstacles from a moving platform is a useful skill for the coming generation of mobile robot. The methods used in existing moving objects tracking that operated from fixed platform and fixed background, are not applicable. Instead, we propose a system that detects unexpected moving obstacles that appear in the path of mobile robot. The system is designed to track and determine t...
متن کاملMotion detection by a moving observer using Kalman filter and neural network in soccer robot
In many autonomous mobile applications, robots must be capable of analyzing motion of moving objects in their environment. Duringmovement of robot the quality of images is affected by quakes of camera which cause high errors in image processing outputs. In thispaper, we propose a novel method to effectively overcome this problem using Neural Networks and Kalman Filtering theory. Thistechnique u...
متن کاملActive Visual-Based Detection and Tracking of Moving Objects from Clustering and Classification Methods
This paper describes a method proposed for the detection, the tracking and the identification of mobile objects, detected from a mobile camera, typically a camera embedded on a robot. A global architecture is presented, using only vision, in order to solve simultaneously several problems: the camera (or vehicle) Localization, the environment Mapping and the Detection and Tracking of Moving Obje...
متن کاملOptical Flow based person following behaviour of a robot
Tracking features between two consecutive images captures the essence of motion in order to categorize objects (either static or moving) in the scene. There has been a lot of literature on tracking features (sparse or dense) and lot of improvements have also been proposed over time. Many of these methods try to extract motion either through global optic flow methods, Horn-Schunck or local optic...
متن کاملMoving objects detection and information-theoretic tracking using mobile platform sensors
Detection and tracking of moving objects with camera systems mounted on a mobile robot presents a formidable problem since the ego-motion of the robot and the moving objects jointly form a challengingly discernible motion in the image. In this paper we are concerned with multiple-camera systems, namely the Ladybug R ©2 camera, whose perspective images were used to detect motion and subsequently...
