Abstract: An object detection device includes: an optical flow calculator to calculate an optical flow between images captured by the image capturer at different times; an evaluation value calculator to divide the image captured by the image capturer into areas, and calculate, for each divided area, an evaluation value by using the optical flows of pixels belonging to the divided area, the evaluation value indicating a measure of a possibility that the divided area is an object area representing part or whole of the object to be detected; and an area determinator to determine an area in an image, in which the object to be detected exists, by comparing the evaluation value of each divided area calculated by the evaluation value calculator with a threshold value.

Abstract: Image matching on a pair of image data about images which are shot at different shooting positions is performed, and a point corresponding to the coordinates of a distance measurement point on the image shown by one image data of the pair is searched through the image shown by the other image data of the pair. The value of a parameter showing the attitude of an airplane (2) is corrected in such a way that the difference between the coordinates of the distance measurement point on the image shown by the other image data of the pair and the coordinates of the corresponding point which is searched for via the image matching becomes small, to estimate the attitude of the airplane (2).

Abstract: A digital content editing apparatus includes: a digital content generating unit for processing data and generating digital content constituted by a group of files, the digital content; and an encrypting unit for encrypting encryption target files among the group of files constituting the digital content generated by the digital content generating unit by using a part of the group of non-encryption target files among the group of files constituting the digital content.
