Challenge of multi-camera tracking
Yong Wang, Ke Lü, Rui Zhai · 2014
Multi-camera tracking is quite different from single camera tracking in mathematical principles and application scenarios, and it faces new technology and system architecture challenges. The existing theories and algorithms used in object matching, cameras calibration and topology estimation, and information fusion have been reviewed and show that the integrated application of multi techniques and multi theories is the key to solve the technology challenges. The distributed architectures of multi-camera tracking system based on camera processor and based on object agent have been compared and show that improving the computation ability of cameras and reducing the functions of control center is the key to solve the architecture challenges.
