AbstractThis research study develops a stolen object detection system that is based on motion detection with improved Camshift tracking algorithm. The algorithm takes the first frame of the video as a background model and calculates difference with the current frame. All the motionregionsintheframearetrackedastheyaresubtractedfromthebackground,butonly objects in first frame are classified as stolen objects or not. The system was tested on object stealing scenarios captured in indoor and outdoor environments and found to be robust against occlusion but some harsh lighting changes and shadow conditions may impair the detection of the system.
