Detecting a pebble in videos
I would like to detect a pebble in videos, the image below is an example of how the pebble(s) look like. I would ideally like to detect and track the pebbles. What is the best approach to solving this problem?
- The approach needs to be computationally inexpensive as it needs to be able to run on a mobile device
- The background will not be of a uniform colour - like it is in the image, the background will be dynamic
- Only need to detect and track a single pebble
- Don't want to use colour for detection as lighting conditions will be varied
- I am able to obtain multiple images of the pebble for training purposes
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
That's a strange idea : Don't want to use colour for detection as lighting conditions will be varied Do you think that a gray camera is better when lighting conditions will be varied?
Yeah I guess a gray camera would be better, but I am not looking for a colour detection solution, I want to see whether I can either do shape recognition or object detection.
