Abstract :
This paper proposes a new approach to track a human head in 3D voxel space. Information of both color and distance is obtained from multiple stereo cameras and integrated in 3D voxel space. Formulating a likelihood function from voxel location and its color information can achieve stable tracking with particle filtering in 3D voxel space
