Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a multi camera system for location estimation inspired to a model inherited from the Data Fusion domain: the Joint Directorate of Laboratories (JDL) model (E. Waltz et al., 1990). The problem specifically faced is the tracking of objects in two complementary applications: intelligent monitoring (video surveillance) and sport viewing (football players tracking), where multiple occluding objects have to be successfully segmented and located using different features such as color, position and dynamics.
