Abstract
According to one embodiment, a moving object detector includes an image input device and an image processing device. The image input device captures a moving object existing at a close distance to acquire image information of the moving object. The image processing device applies arithmetic processing to the image information to generate a cylindrical binary image and a top view binary image, extracts a region of the moving object by background correlation, estimates an approaching direction of the moving object from the cylindrical binary image, and estimates a motion trajectory of the moving object based on the approaching direction and the top view binary image.

A moving object detector comprising:
- an image input device that captures a moving object existing at a close distance to acquire image information of the moving object;
- and
- an image processing device that applies arithmetic processing to the image information to generate a cylindrical binary image and a top view binary image, extracts a region of the moving object by background correlation, estimates an approaching direction of the moving object from the cylindrical binary image, and estimates a motion trajectory of the moving object based on the approaching direction and the top view binary image.
