In an odd synchonicity, I was just looking at the docs for Motion homepage. An interesting example is at motion example

The real tool that comes to mind with motion, regarding your problem, is a setup function called "tuning motion" which has graphics at tuning motion . Look at the noise level setting. It is possible to filter out increasing levels of noise, leaving only pure motion behind.

It sounds like you have an exciting project going there. It ought to be easy to separate video noise from actual motion with good cameras and a bit of Perl. By tracking motion, random noise events can be removed, because the noise won't move....they are sporadic. Only objects will be trackable.

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth.
