Abstract

A method of tracking a person is examined by using omnidirectional sensor with a polar coordinates image. In order to extract person's region from original image background subtraction using the HSI value which is not so influenced by a shadow, is applied. Thus, person's region is extracted by using the radius and direction information on polar coordinates. Then, for person tracking migration prediction with previous frame information is performed. Here, features of each person, such as physical size and color, are checked and updated depend on person's condition. Consequently, when no occlusion is occurred, persons can be traced within a distance of 3m from camera to persons.
