how do you distinguish between poop and mud? :)

its great in theory but real world creates harder challenges. the real answer is to keep track of all the dogs that pass by and then compare the before/after scenes for differences. i'm doing this with my garage door camera for detecting water (for a completely different problem)



Perhaps analyze for the combination of dogs + poop? The dog probability will be transient/a spike, whereas the poop probability will be constant (after appearance of the dog).
