PREDATOR - Tracker that learns and improves

A demo of PREDATOR (TLD), a real-time object tracker that learns the appearance of its target and improves while it tracks. The technology was later developed commercially.
HN found it a nifty demo and cites it as a primitive but effective learning tracker that predates modern deep-learning trackers.

My friend forwarded me the video demo link for this: ▶ this video Very nifty. I'm looking forward to reading the machine learning code involved in this.
OK, 11 years ago then. This time with some very primitive ML: OpenTLD ▶ this video Was good enough for commercialization link . I think their tech is powering this link
Incorrect. Recognition applications have been able to track objects across disparate frames of video even when obscures from camera view, for at least a decade now [1]. 1. ▶ this video
