Moving Target Detection and Tracking Based on Pyramid Lucas-Kanade Optical Flow

In order to enable the optical flow to track larger and faster moving targets, pyramid Lucas-Kanade optical flow method is used to detect and track moving targets. First, detecting the corners which is easy to track, in order to improve the tracking accuracy, detected corners and then calculate the sub-pixel corner, and then the video in each frame of the image layered in the image pyramid to calculate the optical flow at the top corner, use the next pyramid as the starting point of the pyramid and repeat this process until the bottom pyramid image, which can overcome the Lucas-Kanade optical flow method cannot track faster and larger movements the shortcomings, to achieve the tracking of moving goals.
