Abstract

A computer vision pipeline detects tracks and classifies people or other specified class of objects in a steam of video. The ability to not only detect motion, but to distinguish people or other specified objects, can improve the systems usefulness in applications like security monitoring. A motion detection module provides a motion bitmap and a background subtraction module provides a foreground bitmap, and an object tracking module uses these bitmaps identify and track the specified classes of objects. From these objects and tracks, categorized object data can then be generated.
