Dual Dynamic PTZ Tracking Using Cooperating Cameras

Stereo Localization Using Dual PTZ Cameras

In this paper, we present a cooperative stereo system based on two pant-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras that can localize a moving target in a complex environment. Given an approximate target position that can be estimated by a fixed camera with a wide field of view, two PTZ cameras with a large baseline are pointed toward the target in order to estimate precisely its position. The overall method is di...

An Object Tracking System for PTZ Cameras Using CAM Shift

In this paper, we present a robust real-time surveillance system of image object tracking for Pan-Tilt-Zoom(PTZ) camera. For image object tracking, we use the CAM shift tracking algorithm based on the HSI color image distribution of detected moving objects. CAM shift algorithm is very efficient for real-time tracking because of its fast and robust performance. In this system, C++ and OpenCV env...

Cooperative Object Tracking with Multiple PTZ Cameras

Research in visual surveillance systems is shifting from using few stationary, passive cameras to employing large heterogeneous sensor networks. One promising type of sensor in particular is the Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) camera, which can cover a potentially much larger area than passive cameras, and can obtain much higher resolution imagery through zoom capacity. In this paper, a system that can tra...

An Image Tracking System for PTZ Cameras Using OpenCV

In this paper, we implement a real-time surveillance system for image object tracking using PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) cameras. For this, we use the mean shift tracking algorithm based on the color image distribution of detected object. Mean shift algorithm is efficient for real-time tracking because of its fast and stable performance. In this system, OpenCV environment is used for image processing an...
