Computer Vision: Computer Vision is the field concerned with the automated processing of images from the real world to extract information. It is the science and technology of machines that see.

Video Detection : Video tracking is the process of locating a moving object over time using a camera.

We denote images by two-dimensional functions of the form ,

Each element of this matrix is called an image element, picture element, pixel, or pel. If the image is 8 bit image then the pixel value can vary between 0-255.

RGB:

An RGB image has three components: red, green, and blue.

GRAY SCALE: A grayscale image has just one component.

BINARY IMAGE: A binary image is a digital image that has only two possible values for each pixel. Typically the two colour's used for a binary image are black and white though any two colour's can be used.

SIFT algorithm finds the features of our required object in an image. Then it find these features in the next frame of the image.

Unmanned robotics are actively being developed for both civilian and military use to perform dull, dirty, and dangerous activities. Can increase mission performance, Combat effectiveness, and personnel safety. These include detection, neutralization, and breaching of minefields and other obstacles; physical security; fire-fighting; urban warfare; weapons employment. Can use for operations in contaminated and other denied areas.
