Object Tracking

In this tutorial, you will learn how to use OpenCV and Deep Learning to detect vehicles in video streams, track them, and apply speed estimation to detect the MPH/KPH of the moving vehicle. This tutorial is inspired by PyImageSearch readers…

In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the dlib library to efficiently track multiple objects in real-time video. So far in this series on object tracking we have learned how to: Track single objects with OpenCV Track multiple…

This tutorial will teach you how to perform object tracking using dlib and Python. After reading today’s blog post you will be able to track objects in real-time video with dlib. A couple months ago we discussed centroid tracking, a…

Last updated on July 8, 2021. In this tutorial you will learn how to build a “people counter” with OpenCV and Python. Using OpenCV, we’ll count the number of people who are heading “in” or “out” of a department store…

Inside today’s tutorial, you will learn how to track multiple objects using OpenCV and Python. This post was inspired by a question I received from PyImageSearch reader, Ariel. Ariel writes: Hi Adrian, thanks for last week’s blog post on object…

In last week’s blog post we got our feet wet by implementing a simple object tracking algorithm called “centroid tracking”. Today, we are going to take the next step and look at eight separate object tracking algorithms built right into…

Last updated on July 8, 2021. Today’s tutorial kicks off a new series of blog posts on object tracking, arguably one of the most requested topics here on PyImageSearch. Object tracking is the process of: Taking an initial set of…

This past Saturday, I was caught in the grips of childhood nostalgia, so I busted out my PlayStation 1 and my original copy of Final Fantasy VII. As a kid in late middle school/early high school, I logged 70+ hours…

Today marks the 100th blog post on PyImageSearch. 100 posts. It’s hard to believe it, but it’s true. When I started PyImageSearch back in January of 2014, I had no idea what the blog would turn into. I didn’t know…
