Abstract
Alias capture to support searching for an object-of-interest is disclosed. A method includes capturing, using a camera with a defined field of view, video image frames that include a moving object-of-interest. The method also includes tracking the object-of-interest over a period of time starting when the object-of-interest enters the field of view and ending when the object-of-interest exits the field of view. The method also includes detecting, at a point in time in-between the start and end of the period of time of the tracking, a threshold exceeding change in an appearance of the object-of-interest. The method also includes creating, before the end of the period of time of the tracking, a new object profile for the object-of-interest in response to the detecting of the threshold exceeding change.
