Project summary |
This project will develop a multi-cue person tracking sytem that will integrate stereo range processing with other visual processing modalities for robust performace in active environments.
Project description |
Next generation intelligent environments and interfaces require low-cost, easily configurable person tracking systems to provide perceptual awareness of users. We will build a robust multi-cue vision module that will provide these services. By exploiting the near orthogonal error modes of different cues or sensing modalities, this system can be more robust and real-time than a system based on any single cue. We plan to implement this system on a single motherboard system. We hope to demonstrate a laptop-based system with (relatively) low-cost stereo camera heads. |
Demos, movies and other examples |
Spatio-temporal trajectories of 3 users moving in a room; horizontal dimension is time, from 0..50 seconds. Other dimensions are position on ground plane in plan-view representation |
