Abstract :
A number of algorithms have been developed to determine the motion of rigid objects. Most of these algorithms work on single or multiple objects with single motion. However, in the real world, multiple motions are common place. In this paper, a novel algorithm for recovering the 3D motions of multiple moving rigid objects is derived. This new approach is able to determine the total number of motions in the system and to perform 3D motion-based segmentation by using incremental clustering. Then the motion of each independent rigid object can be recovered
