Using Background and Segmentation Algorithms Applied in Mobile Robots.

In this article a segmentation algorithm for detecting moving objects is presented. The aim of the research is to integrate the algorithm in applications such as car parking video surveillance systems. One of the techniques used in this paper to detect motion in a sequence of images is the use of the background model, which is widely used. The technique allows to detect which objects are moving (without identification) which is the first stage for further processing in tasks such as tracking and object recognition. The results from the segmentation algorithm using several parameters are presented that validate the approach.
