The proposed tracking is appropriate for a large variety of objects with different color/texture patterns. The mean shift iterations are employed to find the target candidate that is the most similar to a given target model, with the similarity being expressed by a metric based on the Bhattacharyya coefficient The mean shift iterations are employed to find the target candidate that is the most similar to a given target model, with the similarity being expressed by a metric based on the Bhattacharyya coefficient 4
