Summary :

This paper describes methods of tracking of moving objects in a cluttered background by integrating optical flow, depth data, and/or uniform brightness regions. First, a basic method is introduced which extracts a region with uniform optical flow as the target region. Then an extended method is described in which optical flow and depth are fused. A target region is extracted by Baysian inference in term of optical flow, depth and the predicted target location. This method works only for textured objects because optical flow or depth are extracted for textured objects. In order to solve this problem, uniform regions in addition to the optical flow are used for tracking. Realtime human tracking is realized for real image sequences by using a real time processor with multiple DSPs.
