Abstract
An illustrative example method of tracking an object includes detecting one or more points on the object over time to obtain a plurality of detections, determining a position of each of the detections, determining a relationship between the determined positions, and determining an estimated heading angle of the object based on the relationship.
Claims20
A method of tracking an object, the method comprising:
- detecting one or more points on the object over time to obtain a plurality of detections;
- determining a position of each of the detections;
- determining a spatial relationship between the determined positions;
- and
- determining an estimated heading angle of the object based on the spatial relationship.
2 more elements
A device for tracking an object, the device comprising:
- a detector that detects one or more points on the object over time;
- and
- a processor that is configured to determine a position of each of the detected one or more points, determine a spatial relationship between the determined positions, and determine an estimated heading angle of the object based on the relationship.
A device for tracking an object, the device comprising:
- detection means for detecting one or more points on the object over time;
- and
- determining means for determining a position of each of the detected one or more points, determining a spatial relationship between the determined positions, and determining an estimated heading angle of the object based on the relationship.
