Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system for detection of foreign objects on airport travel surfaces comprising: a plurality of foreign object detector modules associated with a corresponding plurality of existing aircraft travel surface lighting supports, each of said foreign object detector modules being configured to capture at least one image in its field of view and to provide a corresponding detection output, said at least one image including a part of said airport travel surface; and a detection output analyzer operative to receive said detection output and to provide an output indication of foreign object presence; characterized in that said detection output analyzer comprises an initial frame detection algorithm for processing an initial frame and a change detection algorithm for processing a subsequent frame.
