Abstract
A method and apparatus for tracking an object in an image. An image of a scene comprising an object is received. The image is processed with a first tracker to produce a first estimate of a position of the object in the image and a first confidence value. The image is processed with a second tracker to produce a second estimate of the position of the object in the image and a second confidence value. The second tracker processes the image concurrently with the first tracker. An estimate of the position of the object in the image is selected using the first and second confidence values. The object is then tracked using the selected estimate.
