Abstract :
Object tracking is an important computer vision problem with many civilian and military applications including surveillance, robotics and intelligent vehicle design. Most of these applications require fast processing due to their real time nature. The Cell processor is a cost-efficient commodity architecture intended for video gaming and provides new opportunities for parallel processing. This paper provides a cost-efficient motion detection using the Cell processor. The results have shown that this solution can meet the real time processing requirements of realistic motion detection applications.
