Motion tracking of multi-objects for access surveillance based on the panoramic imaging system

摘要

Panoramic images, especially focused images, have many applications in surveillance, robot navigation, art, etc. Described here is a CCD camera with a hyperboloidal mirror for acquiring panoramic focused images. This optical imaging system can greatly simplify the process of acquiring an omni-directional view in real time, thereby presenting panoramic still images or offering a panoramic full motion video. With this panoramic imaging system, we propose a novel approach for motion tracking of multiobjects mainly based on the idea of tracking windows. Experimental results are presented with a sequence of frames to demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed algorithm.
