Camera Lag, How To Dampen The Process?

So im trying to do tracking with wall-e. red ball is sitting right in front of him not moving at all. I start color tracking and his head starts randomly shaking back and forth. I can tell the camera is lagging a fair bit. I was brought the idea of 'dampening' the tracking process. Aka. tell the camera function to make a decision on what to do after 3 frames.

How could I do this?

Or what is another way to stop this shaking?

it tracks fine but it takes for ever to turn a direction. ball goes to the left. 5 seconds with jerky movement to turn to it.

Yes, my overheating problem is solved. I just wanted to know how to fix the tracking.

Can you explain a little better? I ask because you said tracking is fine in one post but then say it needs fixing in another. What's actually happening? Any chance of a video to show what's going on?

when im trying to track, ill move the ball to a side and the head slowly jerks over to where the ball is.

Check your servo speeds Check your increment Check your grid Check your tracking speed

You will find you need to play with these settings to find optimum performance

Be sure to keep your processed video frame rate low at 10 fps or lower
