Background subtraction is a major preprocessing step in many vision-based applications. For
example, consider the case of a visitor counter where a static camera takes the number of visitors
entering or leaving the room, or a traffic camera extracting information about the vehicles etc. In
all these cases, first you need to extract the person or vehicles alone. Technically, you need to
extract the moving foreground from static background.
If you have an image of background alone, like image of the room without visitors, image of the road
If you have an image of background alone, like an image of the room without visitors, image of the road
without vehicles etc, it is an easy job. Just subtract the new image from the background. You get
the foreground objects alone. But in most of the cases, you may not have such an image, so we need
to extract the background from whatever images we have. It become more complicated when there is
shadow of the vehicles. Since shadow is also moving, simple subtraction will mark that also as

shadows of the vehicles. Since shadows also move, simple subtraction will mark that also as
foreground. It complicates things.
Several algorithms were introduced for this purpose. OpenCV has implemented three such algorithms
which is very easy to use. We will see them one-by-one.

As in previous case, we have to create a background subtractor object. Here, you have an option of
selecting whether shadow to be detected or not. If detectShadows = True (which is so by default), it

detects and marks shadows, but decreases the speed. Shadows will be marked in gray color.
