Abstract
The detection of moving objects is important in many tasks. The authors examine moving object detection based primarily on visual motion. It is concluded that in realistic situations, detection using visual information alone is quite difficult, particularly when the camera is also moving. The availability of additional information about camera motion and/or scene structure simplifies the problem. Detection algorithms are developed for the cases in which 1) camera motion is known; 2) only camera rotation is known; 3) only camera translation is known; 4) objects move in contact with a smooth surface; and 5) an object is being actively tracked, but the camera motion associated with the tracking is not known precisely. Examples of several of these techniques are presented.
