Abstract
Searching through a series of images such as video images for slowly-moving objects such as enemy snipers, using pattern matching, color matching, brightness matching, or the like. Multiple search speeds facilitate finding objects moving at different velocities through the visual field. Search speeds can be determined as, e.g. every Nth frame, or a frame from every Nth period of time. Background motion, such as bushes blowing in the wind, do not trigger false positives.
