The article presents a real-time hardware implementation of a foreground
object detection for a non-static camera setup. The system consists of two
parts: the calculation of the displacement between two consecutive frames
using a correlation based corner tracker and background generation method
ViBE (Visual Background Extractor). The paper discusses details of the used
hardware modules, resource utilization, computing performance and power
dissipation. The solution was evaluated on sequences recorded with a static
and moving camera. The system was successfully tested on a hardware platform
with an FPGA device. It allows to process a 720x576 pixels and 50 frames per
second video stream in real-time.
