Adaptive multifovea sensors for mobile tracking

This paper presents an implementation of adaptive multifovea sensors with reconfigurable structures based on multiresolution topologies and hierarchical data structures related to vision pyramids. These sensors are particularly useful for applications where fast data processing is a requirement together with low cost, volume, weight and power consumption. One of those applications, detection and tracking of several moving objects, as well as the algorithm used for the application is described.
