Abstract
This paper describes a method to track a person by integrating two cues, optical flow and uniform brightness regions, where optical flow cannot be obtained. This method works even if tracking with either optical flow or uniform brightness regions may fail. The proposed method has been implemented on a real time image processor with multiple DSPs and successfully tracked a target person using real image sequences
