Abstract

There are many applications where an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is required to visually track a ground-based target using an on-board camera. In these applications, successful target tracking often requires that past estimates of the target be transformed into the current image frame so that moving targets can be correctly identified [1]. If the target is moving on an approximately planar surface, then the coordinate transformation can be accomplished using the homography matrix.
