Abstract

Systems and methods for moving object detection using a mobile infrared camera are described. The methods include receiving multiple frames, each frame including an image of at least a portion of a planar surface, stabilizing two consecutive frames of the plurality of frames, the stabilizing comprising determining a transformation mapping a succeeding frame of the two consecutive frames to a preceding frame of the two consecutive frames and based on the transformation, warping the two consecutive frames to a reference frame of the plurality of frames, and detecting a movement of an object in the two consecutive frames, the movement based on a change in positions of the object in the preceding frame and the successive frame.
