Abstract

This paper proposes an algorithm for managing redundant measurements provided by a stereo multi-camera system to achieve accurate visual tracking of a moving object. Self-occlusion, different visual resolution zones and optimal selection of redundant measurements are some of the problems addressed. The algorithm uses the extended Kalman filter embedded in a computational efficient pose estimation procedure based on Binary Space Partitioning Tree geometric modelling of 3D objects. Experimental results are presented for the case of an object moving in the visual space of two fixed cameras.
