A Stop Motion for Moving Picture Machines

A Study of Moving Object Detection from Unstable Motion Picture

A new method to detect and track an object having a unique movement out of general moving background comprised of a number of moving areas is reported here. After an overall picture movement is detected and normalized from local movements of an image, the moving object becomes detectable by applying a time sequential processing on the difference between frames. Thus, the detection of moving obj...

Motion estimation using low-band-shift method for wavelet-based moving-picture coding

The discrete wavelet transform (DWT) has several advantages of multiresolution analysis and subband decomposition, which has been successfully used in image processing. However, the shift-variant property is intrinsic due to the decimation process of the wavelet transform, and it makes the wavelet-domain motion estimation and compensation inefficient. To overcome the shift-variant property, a l...

Motion Picture Reconstruction

Gross and microscopic studies of the auriculoventricular conduction system were performed in 60 human hearts. A unique technic is introduced which will produce a photographic. record of undistorted serial sections through a block containing the auriculoventricular node, auriculoventricular bundle and branches. By projecting the completed film as a motion picture, the course and changing relatio...

Motion Strategies for MaintainingVisibility of a Moving

We introduce the problem of computing robot motion strategies that maintain visibility of a moving target in a cluttered workspace. Both motion constraints (as considered in standard motion planning) and visibility constraints (as considered in visual tracking) must be satis-ed. Additional criteria, such as the total distance trav-eled, can be optimized. The general problem is divided into two ...
