There are many approaches for motion detection in continuous video streams. All of them are based on comparison of current video fr a me with one from the previous fr a mes or with something that we ll call background. In this article I ll try to describe some of the most common approaches. In describing the algorithms, I ll use an image processing library I ve described in my previous article. So, if you are common with it, it will only help. The demo applications support the following types of video sources: AVI files (using Video for Windows, interop library is included) updating JPEG from internet cameras MJPEG (motion JPEG) streams from different internet cameras MMS Stream - Microsoft Media Services local capture device (USB cameras or other capture devices).-There are many approaches for motion detection in continuous video streams.
