Abstract
The paper presents a passive ranging method for estimating distances to an object using a video sequence gathered from a moving platform. The motivation is provided by potential application to object distance estimation using video data from general aviation aircraft. The method exploits scale changes of an object in the video sequence, as inferred by processing wavelet transforms of video frames, to compute distance. The underlying principles are presented along with results of bench experiments
