Moving object detection in digital image sequence involves identification of the presence of an object in consecutive frames where as object tracking is used to monitor the movements with respect to the region of interest. In this project, the motion estimation is obtained using Optical Flow. Optical Flow is the distribution of apparent velocities of movement of brightness patterns in an image. Lucas-Kanade algorithm with Sobel, Horn and Guassian smoothing techniques is used in this work for computation of Optical Flow vectors. Single and multiple object movements with respect to the computed...

An aircraft autopilot is a combination of mechanical, electrical & software systems that guide a vehicle without human intervention. Piloting aircraft is a very complex & tedious job resulting in wear & tear of pilots in long distance flights. Autopilot feature in aircraft's helps to reduce the work load on pilots making them more productive & active. This project aims at design & implementation of Auto Pilot Control System. Thrust required to take off flight along with added payload can be achieved by giving PWM pulse to the main motor. Main motor draws high amount of current which can be...

Digital signal processors (DSPs) are essential for real-time processing of digitized data and performing the high-speed numeric calculations necessary to enable a broad range of application areas such as wireless communications, audio and video, etc. This technical write up gives implementation of motion detection algorithm in Blackfin BF533 processor board and MATLAB. The different computation of Sigma-Delta motion detection algorithm like Background Subtraction, Motion likelihood measure, variance which is defined as the Sigma-Delta mean of N times the non-zero differences, motion...
