Real-time camera motion tracking in planar view scenarios

We propose a novel method for real-time camera motion tracking in planar view scenarios. This method relies on the geometry of a tripod, an initial estimation of camera pose for the first video frame and a primitive tracking procedure. This process uses lines and circles as primitives, which are extracted applying classification and regression tree. We have applied the proposed method to high-definition videos of soccer matches. Experimental results prove that our proposal can be applied to processing high-definition video in real time. We validate the procedure by inserting virtual content in the video sequence.
