Multi-camera Person Tracking in a Cluttered Interaction Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tracking the head and hand in real-time are important tasks for developing an intuitive interaction system. We present a system for robust probabilistic tracking that integrates face detection, face and hand color tracking and foot tracking in a uniform way by using particle filters. The advantages of different cues like motion, color and face detection are combined to yield robust 2D and 3D position estimates in spite of difficult varying lighting conditions and cluttered background. The system enables a user to navigate in the virtual scene by walking around and pointing towards objects by a simple hand gesture. The environment is a 3-sided CAVE with 1-sided stereo back projection.

Multi-modal Person Detection and Tracking from a Mobile Robot in a Crowded Environment
This paper addresses multi-modal person detection and tracking using a 2D SICK Laser Range Finder and a visual camera from a mobile robot in a crowded and cluttered environment. A sequential approach in which the laser data is segmented to filter human leg like structures to generate person hypothesis which are further refined by a state of the art parts based visual person detector for final d...
متن کاملAn on-line variational Bayesian model for multi-person tracking from cluttered scenes
Object tracking is an ubiquitous problem that appears in many applications such as remote sensing, audio processing, computer vision, human-machine interfaces, human-robot interaction, etc. Although thoroughly investigated in computer vision, tracking a time-varying number of persons remains a challenging open problem. In this paper, we propose an on-line variational Bayesian model for multi-pe...
متن کاملPerson Tracking in 3D Using Kalman Filtering in Single and Multiple Camera Environments
We present a multi-camera person tracker solution that makes use of Kalman filtering principles. The tracking system could be used in conjunction with behaviour analysis systems to perform automated monitoring of human activity in a range of different environments. Targets are tracked in a 3-D world-view coordinate system which is common to all cameras monitoring the scene. Targets are modelled...

The intelligent environments, built upon many distributed sensors, are promising technology for ubiquitous interaction between robots and human beings. Especially, it is important to track target objects and get the positional information of them in such environments. This paper focuses on adapting camera selection for target tracking in multi-camera system. In this paper, a fuzzy automaton bas...
متن کاملPedestrians Tracking in a Camera Network
With the increase of the number of cameras installed across a video surveillance network, the ability of security staffs to attentively scan all the video feeds actually decreases. Therefore, the need for an intelligent system that operates as a tracking system is vital for security personnel to do their jobs well. Tracking people as they move through a camera network with non-overlapping field...
