This paper describes the proposed ATDT approach for autonomous template-based detection and tracking from a moving airborne camera or an electro-optical (EO) device. The advantages of the proposed method ATDT is that it is fully autonomous (no human involvement is needed; in the experiment the human was only involved to navigate the UAV not for any of the steps of the video analysis) replacing the need of human operators for video analytics tasks, it can be used on board UAV, is computationally lean and can operate in real time.
