Abstract
Tracking objects in real-time has a variety of applications in many fields. Optical flow
based tracking is one such tracking mechanism which can track moving objects even
under complex backgrounds and different light conditions. The research presented in this
paper discusses the feasibility of using optical flow to track moving objects captured in a
camera view, to extract basic information related to the objects. The motion of a simple
pendulum, a ball falling through a viscous medium and fish swimming in a fish tank were
used to demonstrate the validity of the method
