Aimed at the unsatisfactory result of the consecutive frames method for detecting moving objects in changing scene,a novel soccer player detection algorithm based on improved consecutive frames is proposed.Firstly,the method of dominate color of playfield back projection is used to filter the auditorium to get the playfield,then the color of playfield is extracted to fill the region outside,the fixed background is gotten,the consecutive frames method is applied to detect players.Finally,correlation of two normalized color histograms is employed to identify the team that a player belongs to.Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is effective and robust.
