Abstract

Laser Point Tracking (LPT) is algorithm dedicated to rapidly moving laser-generated blob. By usage of few features: brightness, area and velocity, it is able track blurred and dark trail of laser. Further research were made to overcome problems, which occur while tracking two lasers simultaneously. The acquired results are promising. The presented algorithm for tracking multiple laser points might be applied to various multimedia presentation systems e.g. gimbal camera guidance during lectures or laser shooting ranges. The presented algorithm was compared against three state-of-the art object trackers using real-life test sequences. Only LPT tracker succeeded in the task. State-of-the art general purpose trackers were able to track the target for less than 10 % of the sequence. Due to the significant improvement of tracking quality it was possible to apply the algorithm and create the professional laser shooting range characterized by outstanding quality.
