Real-time active visual surveillance by integrating peripheral motion detection with foveated tracking
In this paper we describe an active binocular tracking system integrating peripheral motion detection. The system is made up of a binocular active system used to track the objects and a fixed camera providing wide angle images of the environment. The system can cope with changes in lighting conditions by adjusting aperture and focus. Binocular flow enables tracking of nonrigid objects even when partial occlusion occurs.
