5.1 INTRODUCTION

A sequence of temporal images acquired by a single sensor adds a whole new dimension to two-dimensional (2D) image data. Availability of an image sequence permits the measurement of quantities, such as subpixel intensities, camera motion and depth, and detection and tracking of moving objects. In turn, the processing of image sequences necessitates the development of sophisticated techniques to extract this information. With the recent availability of powerful yet inexpensive computers, data storage ...
