In a preferred embodiment, the detecting a target vehicle from the acquired frame of video image according to a vehicle detection and identification algorithm to obtain a target vehicle image specifically includes: traversing the video image by using a first preset window, and comparing RGB channel values of pixel points in a window coverage area in the video image with RGB channel values in a feature pool to obtain a comparison result; and judging whether the window coverage area is the target vehicle area or not according to the comparison result, and if so, taking the image of the window coverage area as the target vehicle image.
Considering that the probability of the target vehicle appearing in any region of the video image is the same, the present embodiment is beneficial to ensuring accurate detection of the target vehicle by traversing the video image using the window with a fixed size, i.e., the first preset window, in the target vehicle detection process.

Candidate points of the feature points are detected using a window of fixed size, for example, 3 × 3, and the maximum value is selected as the vertex of the window, i.e., the target feature point.
However, when some point in the limited domain Ω violates the target pixel instantaneous speed condition or the limited domain motion discontinuity, such as the appearance of shadow, sudden dimming of light, etc., the solution error obtained increases. And screening out the characteristic points meeting the constraint conditions to solve the stable target pixel instantaneous velocity vector.
The x, y are biased and written in matrix form based on the target pixel instantaneous velocity equation (2):
define the matrix as
The conditional number of the matrix is
In formula (10), λmaxAnd λminThe maximum eigenvalue and the minimum eigenvalue of the matrix H, respectively.

As shown in fig. 3, as an example, after the camera inputs the 1 st frame of video image and performs the gray processing, the tracking area is determined according to the vehicle detection and recognition algorithm, and then the detection of the feature points in the image of the area to be tracked is started according to the vertex detection algorithm, and the feature points are drawn and stored. And when the 2 nd frame gray image is input, according to a target pixel instantaneous speed estimation algorithm, solving u and v values by using a weighted least square method, and calculating the position where the characteristic point of the next frame video image can appear. And then, the vertex detection algorithm calculates new characteristic points based on the new video image, replaces the original characteristic point data, calculates the positions of the characteristic points on the next frame of video image according to the target pixel instantaneous speed estimation algorithm, and leads the characteristic points to track to the position. And repeating the iteration, measuring and calculating the characteristic points in real time and tracking the characteristic points to accelerate the tracking speed of the camera.
