Automated Reading of Videotape.

Abstract

This report describes the concepts and software which are used in a prototype videotape reader being developed at WSMR. The goal is to read from one frame of video the position of the target and the three angular rotations of the target. This is done by first making a contour of the target from a frame of video. The Fourier descriptors of the contour are then computed and normalized. (Author)
