Abstract

An object tracking system, which uses an omni-directional camera, is proposed in this work. First, we construct a mapping table, which describes the relationships between image coordinates and omni-directional angles Then, we develop a surveillance system to detect unexpected objects automatically from omni-directional images. Finally, we generate perspective views for detected objects by using the mapping table. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm provides efficient performances.
