Basic motion and tracking detection using Python and OpenCV (Part 2)

Interested in building a home surveillance system using Python and OpenCV? In this tutorial, I'll show you how to build a motion detection and tracking system using computer vision.

nice to show coordinate systems to the object in this video?

I am interested in using this technology to build a sky cam to track satellites. Can this record smooth video instead of time lapse? I understand it is to save space, but sky activity is minimal. Does it save as one continuous file or short clips? Thanks.

hello, your programmed is very nice.. may i have a question? is it possible to distinguish if there's something object has been detected? ex. a human walk, do the camera can identify that the detected motion is a human? then is it possible if i add audio recognition according to the identified object? ex. there's an audio tells where the motion came from.  i hope you get what is my point. pls  i need your opinion about this.. i hope you will grant the information that i need.. thank you very much.. keep it up ! :) Godbless you

Hey!

That's cool. It really worked. So, what if the camera is mounted on a moving platform?
That's my actual problem. I believe you would like to help me.
Thank you very much.
