Motion enhancement for preprocessing of optical flow detection and scientific visualization

Abstract We introduce a simple method for motion enhancement. The method enables us to realize brightness enhancement of moving objects, to reduce the influence of non-uniform illumination in motion analysis and to visualize dynamic streamlines in fluid flow analysis.
