Detection and tracking of fast-moving objects have widespread utility in many fields. However, fulfilling this demand for fast and efficient detecting and tracking using image-based techniques is problematic, owing to the complex calculations and limited data processing capabilities. To tackle this problem, we propose an image-free method to achieve real-time detection and tracking of fast-moving objects. It employs the Hadamard pattern to illuminate the fast-moving object by a spatial light modulator, in which the resulting light signal is collected by a single-pixel detector. The single-pixel measurement values are directly used to reconstruct the position information without image reconstruction. Furthermore, a new sampling method is used to optimize the pattern projection way for achieving an ultra-low sampling rate. Compared with the state-of-the-art methods, our approach is not only capable of handling real-time detection and tracking, but also it has a small amount of calculation and high efficiency. We experimentally demonstrate that the proposed method, using a 22kHz digital micro-mirror device, can implement a 105fps frame rate at a 1.28% sampling rate when tracks. Our method breaks through the traditional tracking ways, which can implement the object real-time tracking without image reconstruction.
