The purpose of this study was to investigate multi-spectral tracking. Various algorithms were investigated and developed to enhance the contrast between target and non-target classes. Different tracking algorithms were implemented on the resulting grayscale input. A physical tracking system consisting of a video input processor and DSP was designed and built to implement algorithms and investigate the viability of realtime multi-spectral tracking. It is illustrated that conventional intensity tracking clouds the available information and that by studying various spectral inputs information is extracted more efficiently from the available data. 2008-08-11T09:25:20Z 2010-06-01T08:28:53Z 2008-08-11T09:25:20Z 2010-06-01T08:28:53Z 2005-03 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/1621 en University of Stellenbosch application/pdf Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch
