Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009139723A1] A method is provided for detecting moving objects in a video signal generated by a moving camera. A first plurality of pixels is selected from a first frame and a second plurality of pixels comprised in that first plurality, is identified in a preceding frame. Based upon the second plurality of pixels, changes occurred in pixels belonging to the first plurality of pixels are identified, and a shifting intensity value of pixels for which changes have been identified, is calculated. Then, a vector which is associated with the pixels' locations and calculated shifting intensity value is generated, and a connected component which comprises a group of pixels comprised in the second plurality of pixels, is identified. The group is characterized in that a change in each of its pixels is associated with a change in each of the remaining pixels of that group, and that pixels comprised in the group have a distinctive shifting intensity value, indicating a movement of the connected component which is associated with the moving object, relative to background shifting caused by the camera movement.
