This paper describes how image sequences taken by a moving video camera may be processed to detect and track moving objects against a moving background in real-time. The motion segmentation and shape tracking system is known as a scene segmenter establishing tracking, version 2 (ASSET-2). Motion is found by tracking image features, and segmentation is based on first-order (i.e. six-parameter) flow fields. Shape tracking is performed using two-dimensional radial map representations. The system runs in real-time, and is accurate and reliable. It requires no camera calibration and no knowledge of the camera's motion. © British Crown Copyright 1998.
