\subsection{Processing}  Real-time analysis is not an explicit goal of this technology as it's its  intended use is primarily for research. However, performance is a serious consideration if, for no other reason than it to  ensures that processing is remains  affordable and doesn't fall behind data collection.In the current iteration of the software, and with today's multi-core prossesors, tasks are highly parralelisable. Feature tracking and trajectory analysis can be performed on multiple video sequences, typically cut up into 20 minute or 1 hour segments, in parralel on a single mid-to-high-performance machine.  In the current iteration of the software, and with today's multi-core prossesors, tasks are highly parralelisable. Feature tracking and trajectory analysis can be performed on multiple video sequences, typically cut up into 20 minute or 1 hour segments, in parralel on a single mid-to-high-performance machine. With parralel processing, memory becomes the main bottleneck. Most of the analysis is conducted on a pair of dedicated consumer-grade high-performance machines.
