Abstract:
A tracking system and an image obtaining means include: a processor; a memory module communicatively coupled to the processor; a pan-tilt camera including angle sensors communicatively coupled to the processor for tracking a predetermined object and sensing the coordinates of the pan-tilt camera; and machine readable instructions stored in the memory module that cause the image obtaining means to determine whether the predetermined object becomes lost within the image periphery of the image data; and if the predetermined object becomes lost, record the coordinates of the camera in the memory module where the predetermined has been tracked for the last time.
