Abstract

Tracking of objects of interest is of great significance for video based automated surveillance systems. This research presents the design and implementation of Xilinx ML510 (Virtex-5 FXT) FPGA platform based vision system for real-time object tracking in a video sequence. Modified particle filtering and sum of absolute differences (SAD) based scheme is used for object tracking. The proposed complete system is designed to meet the real-time requirements of video surveillance applications. The implemented system can robustly track the objects present in a video stream in real-time for standard PAL size color video.
