Abstract
A mobile electronic device processes a sequence of images to identify and re-identify an object of interest in the sequence. An image sensor of the device, receives a sequence of images. The device detects an object in a first image as well as positional parameters of the device that correspond to the object in the first image. The device determines a range of positional parameters within which the object may appear in a field of view of the device. When the device detects that the object of interest exited the field of view it subsequently uses motion sensor data to determine that the object of interest has likely re-entered the field of view, it will analyze the current frame to confirm that the object of interest has re-entered the field of view.
