Patent ID: 8532337

Claim:
An object tracking method, comprising: performing a classification process in a first frame picture, so as to obtain multiple first classifications of pixels within a first focus frame, wherein the first focus frame has a first rectangular frame therein, and the classification process comprises: obtaining the color feature of each of the pixels within the first focus frame; calculating multiple weight values according to the color features respectively and correspondingly; and establishing the first classifications for the weight values from large to small, with the first rectangular frame being set in a pixel range covered by the first classification having the largest weight value among the weight values; performing a positioning process according to the first rectangular frame in a second frame picture, so as to obtain a second rectangular frame; obtaining a color feature of each of the pixels around the second rectangular frame sequentially, and establishing multiple second classifications according to the color features; calculating an approximation of the second classification and the corresponding first classification sequentially, so as to obtain an approximation value respectively; comparing each approximation value sequentially to determine whether the approximation value is larger than a predetermined threshold; if yes, progressively adjusting the second rectangular frame to a pixel range covered by the second classifications; and if no, stopping adjusting the second rectangular frame, so as to establish a second focus frame.
