urveillance with the help of an aerial robot is an interesting research topic, studied also in this work. With the help of a lightweight camera and a versatile processing platform, target recognition can be achieved with very low cost hardware. This paper considers Quanser Qball x4 system with Open TLD toolbox operating in the ground station. The Qball x4 system can provide flight without human intervention and during the flight, obtained video sequence is transmitted to the ground processing host computer, which runs open TLD module. The operator marks the object to be tracked, and then the software marks the video image whenever it finds the predetermined patterns in the video stream. The real time applications show that the integration of such modules provides very good results in recognizing stationary and moving targets.
