Detect swimmer in lane of 50 meter pool
How can I detect a swimmer who is wearing a coloured cap and does some splashing in the water? I want to know when a swimmer approached the lane boundaries and ends.
One approach is colour detection to track swimming cap colour. The problem with this is that the splashes of water and distance might hide the cap.
One possible approach is using cascade training with a lot of images of water splashes. Would this approach work?
Please tell me possible approaches and alternatives.
Thanks in advance
