    Abstract

    Cases of friendly fire during combat have been present throughout the course of any conflict during human evolution. These cases are caused by two main factors, 1) incorrectly identifying a target, or 2) correctly identifying a target, however, another target moves into the line of fire. Factor one is the focus of this paper as a significant body of research has shown that humans can recognise many characteristics from human motion such as gender, actions, intention, emotion and identity. Even more importantly the perceptual ability to detect this information may be trainable using simple video based methods.
