# Motion Detector
|
||
|
|
A project made for Auburn ELEC 7450: Digtal Image Processing. The source code can be found on my
|
||
|
|
[GitHub](https://github.com/joeyahines/motion_detector)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Goal
|
||
|
|
The goal of this project was to detect motion on a video stream from a [VideoForLinux](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video4Linux) source.
|
||
|
|
The algorithm can also be tested by loading in individual frames.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Implementation
|
||
|
|
The project was written in C and VideoForLinux for grabbing image data and [SDL](https://www.libsdl.org/)
|
||
|
|
for rendering the video output. A background model is built by implementing a moving average of the image.
|
||
|
|
In addition to this, a motion mask is implemented to desensitise the algorithm from background motion objects.
