Feature Matching and Tracking: Making Vehicles and Robots See

 Learn how to use feature-based tracking to identify predefined objects in a video. Start with exploring what image features are and then how to locate an object of interest in a video frame using feature detection, description, and matching. See how the Registration Estimator app helps you select detectors and descriptors depending on the data. Extend the feature matching technique to various frames in the input video or track the object using point tracking which is often a more reliable technique for object tracking. Follow the exercise on recovering a rotated video with the matching features framework in Simulink® provided at the end of the video.
