In the third and final course of the Computer Vision for Engineering and Science specialization, you will learn to track objects and detect motion in videos. Tracking objects and detecting motion are difficult tasks but are required for applications as varied as microbiology and autonomous systems. To track objects, you first need to detect them. You’ll use pre-trained deep neural networks to perform object detection. You’ll also use optical flow to detect motion and use the results to detect moving objects.
