Abstract

This paper proposed the real-time tracking algorithm in the active camera system, which is based on the intelligent method. To separate the object from background, the similarity of the color is analyzed through the fuzzy inference engine. And after segmentation, the local difference method between the continuous images is used to track the moving object. The experiment is performed using the developed embedded camera system with an ARM processor.
