Abstract: This disclosure provides an apparatus and method for performing object detection based on images captured by a fisheye camera and an electronic device. The apparatus includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor according to an embodiment is configured to: project an original image captured by the fisheye camera onto a cylindrical or spherical projection model, and perform reverse mapping to obtain at least two reversely mapped images, angles of view of the at least two reversely mapped images being towards different directions, detect objects in the reversely mapped images, respectively, and detect an object that is the same among the objects detected in the reversely mapped images. According to this disclosure, information in the wide field of view images obtained by capturing by the fisheye camera may be fully utilized.
