In this paper, we present a method for propagating segmentation information across a saccade for a foveating camera. In particular, we take a region of interest from a wide-angle, low-fidelity image and propagate its segmentation information to a zoomed, high-fidelity image containing that region. Our method uses normalized greyscale templates to estimate the change in translation and magnification required to transform the segmented region. This process is particularly useful for systems whose segmentation methods rely on prior images, such as motion or difference segmentation, because the segmentation methods cannot be simply be rerun to obtain a segmentation in the high-fidelity images.
