Video Processing to Track for Each Pedestrian

To track the pedestrians automatically, I have developed simple system for video processing as shown in the pictures below. The results still quite noisy but it works after some more filtering on the data.

Example of video tracking is provided below. You may download the motion movie in avi format.

Left : Picture taken by video camera (download AVI: 4.0MB). Right: mask of the pedestrian after background subtraction. (download AVI: 4.7 MB)

Left: Contour of the pedestrians (download AVI: 3.8 MB). Right: segmented pedestrians marked by bounding box (download AVI: 4.2 MB). Coordinate of pedestrian is saved as mid point of the bounding box.
