Abstract
A processing device generates composite images from a sequence of images. The composite images may be used as frames of video. A foreground/background segmentation is performed at selected frames to extract a plurality of foreground object images depicting a foreground object at different locations as it moves across a scene. The foreground object images are stored to a foreground object list. The foreground object images in the foreground object list are overlaid onto subsequent video frames that follow the respective frames from which they were extracted, thereby generating a composite video.
