Vision Based People Tracking Using Stereo Camera and Camshift

In this paper proposes a visual manipulation method that incorporates computation of 3D object position from characteristic disparity of stereo image. First, we proceed to an image revision work using the calibration. To obtain the characteristic disparity, a set of characteristic points, essential to obtain characteristics like center points or corner points are determined from the CAMShift center of left and right images. By iterative computation and tracking in real time, the algorithm is able to robustly provide accurate 3D position of target objects.
