When tracking a person using a laser range finder (LRF), our previous method could not separate multiple persons when a non-target person overlapped the target person. The proposed method detects the boundary of two or more persons by checking whether the detected object is convex or not. Then, if concave points are detected, that part is determined as the boundary of two persons. From the experimental result, we confirmed that the proposed method robustly separated the target person even when a non-target person walked by the target person.
