Abstract
A processing device is configured to obtain a sequence of images of a scene captured by an image sensor, determine an analysis area for an object in a respective image in the sequence of images, and process the respective image within the analysis area for detection of predefined features of the object. The processing device is further configured to receive pose prediction data, PPD, which represents predicted poses of the object as a function of time, and to determine the analysis area based on the PPD. The PPD may be given by three-dimensional poses of the object that have been determined in the system based on images from a plurality of image sensors in the system. The PPD facilitates detection of features of individual objects in the images even if the objects are occluded and/or crowded.
