AI ON THE JETSON NANO LESSON 28: Tracking Objects in OpenCV using Contours

 

In Lesson 27 we learned how to isolate an object of interest by masking it, and separating it from the background. In this lesson we learn how to track the object of interest by creating OpenCV contours, and then drawing a con tour or box around the object of interest in the original frame. This allows us to track objects of interest in real time on live videos. The video above takes you through the lesson step-by-step, and below is the demo code we developed during the lesson
