In this talk, new results on the problem of feature based observability, identifiability and control problems will be introduced and discussed, for a dynamical system with a perspective observation function. The principal message of the talk is that -- features in motion can be viewed as a dynamical system in an appropriate homogeneous space viz. a Grassmannian. Systems Theory over a `Grassmannian' is a promising subject with applications that include the subspace tracking problem and motion estimation problem. In this talk, many foundational questions on the motion estimation problem will be detailed.
