A method of operating an object detection and tracking system includes the step of estimating () a current background of a current frame of sensor data generated by a sensor based on a previous frame of sensor data by a computer-based processor. The method further includes estimating () a foreground of the current frame of sensor data by comparing the current frame of sensor data to the current background, and detecting () an object using a sensor-specific object model.
