  • Publication number: 20240071028
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a detector that detects a movable object in a frame image of a video, a calculator that calculates a confidence of the detected movable object being a predetermined object, and a detection range determiner that determines a detection range for a first movable object detected in a first frame based on a confidence of the first movable object calculated with a range circumscribing the first movable object and on a confidence of the first movable object in the first frame calculated with a detection range for a second movable object detected in a second frame preceding the first frame and records the determined detection range into a recorder.

  • Publication number: 20230267767
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes an image obtainer that obtains a moving image including an operation area captured with an image sensor, an image generator that generates an image of a face region of a worker performing an operation in the operation area based on the moving image, a statistical information generator that generates statistical information for the operation performed by the worker based on the moving image, a data generator that generates data including the generated image of the face of the worker linked to the generated statistical information for the operation performed by the worker, and an output unit that outputs the generated data.

  • Patent number: 9208579
    Abstract: In an object tracking device, a search region setting unit sets the search region of an object in a frame image at a present point in time, based on an object region in a frame image at a previous point in time, zoom center coordinates in the frame image at the previous point in time, and a ratio between the zoom scaling factor of the frame image at the previous point in time and the zoom scaling factor of the frame image at the present point in time. A normalizing unit normalizes the image of a search region of the object included in the frame image at the present point in time to a fixed size. A matching unit searches the normalized mage of the search region for an object region similar to a template image.
