This article is from Predator Object Tracking Algorithm the Future of Computer Interface? This article was translated from.
I just saw this used to demonstrate a new algorithm of video object tracking, which is part of a doctoral thesis. Czech Zdenek Kalal is a student at the University of Surrey, UK. He demonstrated his amazing precision positioning system that can track almost any object in the scene, as long as you can see it, and put it checked. It can do a lot of things look. In this video, he demonstrates his fingers through the camera shot, put his finger selected as a target. So the system can accurately track the movement of his fingers. Even more surprising is that this system is able to improve the tracking algorithm by analyzing the motion of the object. You can teach it to track your finger, face or on the highway mad Britain's car in a very short period of time. With this system, we almost can really achieve human-machine interface "Minority Report" like that. Like Microsoft's Xbox Kinect that, while the better.
Kalal There are 12 videos to demonstrate what he can do with this algorithm. As long as you have a good camera, this software installed on your computer, tablet or phone, it will be able to track the precise location of a dot on your forehead, your fingers, or your eyes. You put the camera into the door, it can automatically recognize someone you know is coming, or warn you that this is a stranger. People will be able to do by hand simple manipulation computer. This technology is widely applied prospects.
You can from the University of Surrey's website to find the code for this program, which is free. Kalal was awarded the "Technology Everywhere" as scholarship awards.
