Abstract: A new approach to solve the object tracking problem is proposed using a Swarm Intelligence metaphor. It is based on a prey-predator scheme with a swarm of predator particles defined to track a herd of prey pixels using the intensity of its flavours. The method is described, including the definition of predator particles' behaviour as a set of rules in a Boids fashion. Object tracking behaviour emerges from the interaction of individual particles. The paper includes experimental evaluations with video streams that illustrate the robustness and efficiency for real-time vision based tasks using a general purpose computer.
