System and method for visual motion based object segmentation and tracking
The PMP Growth algorithm described herein provides for image tracking, segmentation and processing in environments where the camera system moves around a great deal, i.e., causing image jumps from one image frame to the next. It also is operative in systems where the objects themselves are making quick movements that alter their path. Attributes of the PMP Growth algorithm allow tracking systems using the PMP Growth algorithm to follow objects a long distance in a scene. This detection and tracking method is designed to track objects within a sequence of video image frames, and includes detecting keypoints in a current image frame of the video image frames, assigning local appearance features to the detected keypoints, establishing Point-Motion-Pairs between two successive image frames of the video image frames, and accumulating additional matches between image locations to form complete coherent motion object models of the objects being tracked. The segmentation aspect permits for the discovery of different coherently moving regions in the images.

Providing virtual inserts using image tracking with camera and position sensors
Camera registration and / or sensor data is updated during a live event by determining a difference between an estimated position of an object in an image and an actual position of the object in the image. The estimated position of the object in the image can be based on an estimated position of the object in the live event, e.g., based on GPS or other location data. This position is transformed to the image space using current camera registration and / or sensor data. The actual position of the object in the image can be determined by template matching which accounts for an orientation of the object, a shape of the object, an estimated size of the representation of the object in the image, and the estimated position of the object in the image. The updated camera registration / sensor data can be used in detecting an object in a subsequent image.
