Everything about Optical flow

Pattern of motion in a visual scene due to relative motion of the observer

Optical flow or optic flow is the pattern of apparent motion of objects, surfaces, and edges in a visual scene caused by the relative motion between an observer and a scene. Optical flow can also be defined as the distribution of apparent velocities of movement of brightness pattern in an image. Wikipedia →
