Abstract
An autonomous lock-on target tracking system and method with imaging means for a real space. The imaging means captures and aligns first and second images. A frame-differencing operation produces a resultant image including blobs corresponding to elements in the real space. One of the blobs is analyzed, classified, and tracked as a target.
