A SINGLE PAN AND TILT CAMERA ARCHITECTURE FOR INDOOR POSITIONING AND TRACKING

T. Gaspar, P. Oliveira

2009

Abstract

A new architecture for indoor positioning and tracking is proposed, based on a single low cost pan and tilt camera, where three main modules can be identified: one related to the interface with the camera, supported on parameter estimation techniques; other, responsible for isolating and identifying the target, based on advanced image processing techniques, and a third, that resorting to nonlinear dynamic system suboptimal state estimation techniques, performs the tracking of the target and estimates its position, and linear and angular velocities. To assess the performance of the proposed methods and this new architecture, a software package was developed. An accuracy of 20 cm was obtained in a series of indoor experimental tests, for a range of operation of up to ten meter, under realistic real time conditions.
