Abstract:

The main purpose of our device is to detect velocity of motions in a movie file, and it is helpful to understand the mechanism in idealized cases. It is too complicated to come up with appropriate algorithms for all possible input data at once, and we want to look at the simplest cases first. Our choice of data is a simulated movie. Reducing to bare bones, a blank, constant background (noise-free) with a single object moving across the screen is a good start.
