TrackingVideo tracking is the process of locating a moving object (or multiple objects) over time using a camera. It has a variety of uses, some of which are: human-computer interaction, security and surveillance, video communication and compression, augmented reality, traffic control, medical imaging and video editing. Video tracking can be a time-consuming process due to the amount of data that is contained in video. Adding further to the complexity is the possible need to use object recognition techniques for tracking, a challenging problem in its own right.
Finger trackingIn the field of gesture recognition and , finger tracking is a high-resolution technique developed in 1969 that is employed to know the consecutive position of the fingers of the user and hence represent objects in 3D. In addition to that, the finger tracking technique is used as a tool of the computer, acting as an external device in our computer, similar to a keyboard and a mouse. The finger tracking system is focused on user-data interaction, where the user interacts with virtual data, by handling through the fingers the volumetric of a 3D object that we want to represent.
Détection d'objetthumb|Détection de visage avec la méthode de Viola et Jones. En vision par ordinateur on désigne par détection d'objet (ou classification d'objet) une méthode permettant de détecter la présence d'une instance (reconnaissance d'objet) ou d'une classe d'objets dans une . Une attention particulière est portée à la détection de visage et la détection de personne. Ces méthodes font souvent appel à l'apprentissage supervisé et ont des applications dans de multiples domaines, tels la ou la vidéo surveillance.
Pose trackingIn virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), a pose tracking system detects the precise pose of head-mounted displays, controllers, other objects or body parts within Euclidean space. Pose tracking is often referred to as 6DOF tracking, for the six degrees of freedom in which the pose is often tracked. Pose tracking is sometimes referred to as positional tracking, but the two are separate. Pose tracking is different from positional tracking because pose tracking includes orientation whereas and positional tracking does not.
Object storageObject storage (also known as object-based storage) is a computer data storage that manages data as objects, as opposed to other storage architectures like which manages data as a file hierarchy, and block storage which manages data as blocks within sectors and tracks. Each object typically includes the data itself, a variable amount of metadata, and a globally unique identifier. Object storage can be implemented at multiple levels, including the device level (object-storage device), the system level, and the interface level.
Oculométrievignette|Vidéo de l'étude du mouvement de l'œil avec la méthode oculométrique. L’oculométrie (en anglais pour « suivi oculaire », ou pour « suivi du regard ») regroupe un ensemble de techniques permettant d'enregistrer les mouvements oculaires. Les oculomètres les plus courants analysent des images de l'œil humain enregistrées par une caméra, souvent en lumière infrarouge, pour calculer la direction du regard du sujet. En fonction de la précision souhaitée, différentes caractéristiques de l'œil sont analysées.
Tracking systemA tracking system, also known as a locating system, is used for the observing of persons or objects on the move and supplying a timely ordered sequence of location data for further processing. A myriad of tracking systems exists. Some are 'lag time' indicators, that is, the data is collected after an item has passed a point for example a bar code or choke point or gate. Others are 'real-time' or 'near real-time' like Global Positioning Systems (GPS) depending on how often the data is refreshed.
