Abstract Detection and tracking of approaching targets in an infrared (IR) image sequence is important for surveillance applications. In this paper an algorithm is proposed which provides a complete solution (track while scan) for detection and tracking for IRST system. The proposal method uses only motion as a cue to detect the target. Detection is followed by tracking. In a real scenario, the movement of a target is arbitrary and no a priori information is available. We propose a tracking method which tracks maneuvering and nonmaneuvering targets simultaneously using a filter bank. The switch-over amongst the filters is based on a single-step decision logic.
