Dynamic expansion of map data for object detection and tracking

摘要

A computer implemented method of tracking a target object in an object recognition system includes the steps of acquiring a plurality of images with a camera and at the same time tracking the target object and dynamically constructing online map data from the plurality of images including. Tracking the target object is based on online map data and offline map data. In one aspect, tracking the target object includes enabling only one of online map data and offline map data for tracking based on whether the tracking is successful. In another aspect, tracking the target object includes merging the online map data and the offline map data to generate a merged online model.
