Car Tracking

We have developed an algorithm to track cars in the surrounding road scene and then generate a “bird’s eye view” of the road. Our algorithm uses an efficient, robust tracking algorithm (see here for more details) and a novel template update algorithm (see here for more details). Example results are shown in the movie below.


Example: car tracking and Bird’s Eye View generation.
