Abstract :
Analysis for identifying and computing the velocity of multiple moving objects in sequences of images is presented. While previously published analyses addressed sequences with one or two moving objects, this analysis is extended to sequences with multiple moving objects. simulation is performed to demonstrate the applicability of this technique. Multiple moving objects appear in the spectral domain as groups of individual peaks which identify the objects and are used to compute their velocities. Algorithms which evaluate the spectral peaks and calculate their velocity are also presented
