Abstract :
Range images obtained from infrared ranging sensors often provide detailed silhouettes of objects in the field of view. Elements of a system for extracting and analyzing such range silhouettes are proposed. The effectiveness of the system implemented so far is demonstrated on real data. The other elements of the ultimate system are also discussed, but, only at a conceptual level.
