Abstract
Recent years have seen a continued increase in the need for, and use of automatic video surveillance, both in urban (civilian) and military airborne applications. A surveillance system is typically comprised of one or more video sensors (such as cameras), each of which is mounted on a mobile pan/tilt platform. Because the platform hardware is expensive, making the most use out of each sensor is a worthy goal. To this end, we consider the design of a novel real-time surveillance system that uses a single camera equipped with pan/tilt and zoom capabilities, to ‘keep track’ of as many targets as possible for as long as possible.
