This paper describes a high speed image processing system for automatic target detection and tracking in IR image sequence. To detect and track moving targets in infrared clutter in real time, we have developed an effective morphological filter which removes the noise and clutter. After obtaining the potential objects, the system calculates their centroid and labels them. The architecture of the system consists of two units: the image acquisition and displaying unit and the image processing unit. The system captures the consecutive images in real time, detects and identifies objects within three or four frames, then tracks them at the video rate. The experimental results showed the effectiveness of this proposed system
