Abstract :
This paper proposes a hybrid tracking approach which combines the optical and magnetic localization technologies. It first describes the collinear epipolar plane model, then rewrite and enhance the epipolar constraint under this model. Based on it, this paper further discusses the point corresponding and target recognition in multi-ocular infrared tracking systems. Aiming at the calculation complexity during these two processes, it employs magnetic localization technology to tag and roughly localize the tracked targets and then get refined results by optical localization, which dramatically reduces the calculated amount in tracking.
