Abstract
The approach discussed in this contribution is an example for the interpretation of temporal variations in image sequences recorded by a translating camera. The encouraging results show how obstacles can be detected in image sequences taken from a translating camea by evaluation of optical flow vectors estimated with independently developed approaches. Further developments are necessary to extend the approach to more general motion and more complex environments.
