So I'm looking at the Dynamic Tracking (DT) video on the Autel web, under the EVO.
In the examples you see a little green box (I assume the pilot has drawn around the object to be tracked) but in most instances the 'object' is the only thing in the frame - other than one swimming video from above where there are other swimmers in the frame. There is a car being tracked from above, but no other cars going the other way, there is a large boat of some sort, the only boat in the frame, one person jumping on a bike - the only person in the frame. I also noted on the CES video, the person inside the glass cage is very close to the EVO, so the only person in the frame.
But what happens if another car, going the other way, enters the frame - could the DT perhaps pick up the other car (in close vicinity as it passed the tracked car) and lock on that car.. then the EVO (in this case) starts following the wrong car? That would be disastrous - all of a sudden the drone starts following the other car, or the other sail boat, or another biker, ... I'm sure its as good as the algorithm that defines the tracking, but for those that have used DT, how good is it?
My application might be, I'm on a walk with my wife, a paved path with some trees overhanging the path. The EVO is above me 30' so it does not hit the trees. There are other walkers on the path too, some passing me, walking faster than I am, others walking the other way on the path. Will the dynamic tracking stay locked on me with others in such close vicinity? I played with GPS tracking on another drone and the 'lock' was on my GPS phone, so others could be in my vicinity but it did not matter, the drone would follow the phone, not me specifically, but it would know where the phone was and follow that - so as long as the phone was in my pocket, or on my bike, or in my boat, I'd be followed.
Thoughts?
