发明名称 Video feature tracking with loss-of-track detection
摘要 A method ( 500, 600 ) of tracking a feature ( 201 ) across a sequence of image frames is disclosed. A current feature position in a current frame is estimated from at least a previous feature position in a previous frame. Feature data is extracted from pixel data of the current frame. The feature data is then compared with reference data. If a difference between the feature data and the reference data is larger than a predetermined number, then track of the feature ( 201 ) has been lost. Alternatively, the current feature position is appended to the trajectory of the feature, and the reference data is updated periodically with feature data of a plurality of frames. Preferably the reference data is a statistical representation of feature data of the plurality of frames.
