This report describes a real-time system for tracking pedestrians in sequences of grayscale images acquired by a stationary camera. The system outputs the spatio-temporal coordinates of each pedestrian during the period when the pedestrian is visible. Implemented on a Datacube MaxVideo 20 equipped with a Datacube Max 860, the system achieved a peak performance of over 30 framers per second. Experimental results based on indoor and outdoor scenes have shown that the system is robust under many difficult traffic situations. This system was designed to be robust to high levels of noise and particularly to deal with difficult situations, such as partial or full occlusions of pedestrians. The report compares vision sensors with other types of possible sensors for the pedestrian control task and avaluates the use of active deformable models as an effective pedestrian tracking module.
