The present invention provides a system and method for processing a sequence of images representing a moving object or feature of interest. The system comprises entry means for entering a next image from the sequence into the system, descriptor means for providing a current description of the feature, and location means for providing an estimate of the location of the feature in the next image. A feature extraction means extracts an area of data from said next image based on the estimate provided by the location means. A feature identification means programmed to compare tne extracted data with the current feature descriptor then determines the location of the feature in said next image, and a presentation means presents historical data describing past locations of the feature. Then an estimating device estimates the position of the feature in a further image, the estimation being performed on the basis of the location of the feature determined by said feature identification means and said historical data provided by the presentation means. <IMAGE> |
