Abstract/Summary

In this contribution the determination of the position of moving and deforming objects in windtunnels from CCD camera information is studied. An analytical approach is discussed which solves the problem directly from manipulating nonlinear distance formulae. Also a least-squares approach is given, which is most convenient to implement from a numerical point of view.
