Abstract

The paper proposes a Debris tracking system that associates Debris in water bodies in sequential video frames and gives the movement of debris between the frames. Hence we can identify and track Debris in water bodies in both front and aerial views. The system measures the displacement of each pixel when compared to the previous frame. Pixels show the motion and they are represented by displacement vectors. The system built automatically computes the displacement vector for every pixel. Experimental results prove that the system is capable to detect and track the Debris in water bodies under varying views.
