Object Tracking Using Camshift Algorithm in Open CV

Aditi Jog, Shirish Halbe · International Journal of Scientific Research · 2012

These paper reviews tracking of moving object with camshaft algorithm in OpenCV. In many other cases camshaft considered a feature of tracked object. | In our paper, we have not considered any feature of object to be tracked. Here first Reference frame is selected by user and further continuously updated Binary foreground pixels are given as an argument to CAMshift, for locating location of desired object in each frame. Mask image is created from reference frame in order to masked out undesired motion contours in video frame | Before Tracking, Motion contour detection is achieved. | We proved, CAMshift algorithm can be implemented for tracking even if user don't have any feature information of object to be tracked.
