Experiment scenarios.

ExperimentDescription of experiment scenarios

1Let the pedestrian stay in the camera’s field of view and stay still; then select the pedestrian’s face as the initialization of the particle tracking algorithm. The distance between pedestrian and pan-tilt platform is 100 m.
2Experiment 2 is the same as Experiment 1.
3Let the UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) in the camera’s field of view and stay still; then select the UAV as the initialization of the particle tracking algorithm and then make the UAV move at 1 m/s. The distance between UAV and pan-tilt platform is 100 m.
4Experiment 4 is the same as Experiment 3.
5Let the UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) in the camera’s field of view and stay still, then select the UAV as the initialization of the particle tracking algorithm and then make the UAV move at 2 m/s. The distance between UAV and pan-tilt platform is 100 m.
