Abstract: An image processing device of a person detection system mounted on a moving body is configured to: detect, in image data obtained from a camera, an area in which an obstacle appears; determine whether the area meets an upper body detection process condition that the obstacle in the area is distanced from a road surface within a predetermined range from the camera; perform an upper body detection process in which the area of the image data is compared with upper body comparison data to determine whether the obstacle in the area is a person, for the area that meets the upper body detection process condition; and perform a whole-body detection process in which the area of the image data is compared with whole-body comparison data to determine whether the obstacle in the area is a person, for the area that does not meet the upper body detection process condition.

Abstract: An image processing device of a person detection system mounted on a moving body is configured to: detect, in image data obtained from a camera, an area of the image data in which an obstacle appears; perform a center-of-gravity area-width adjustment process in which a position of center of gravity of the obstacle in the area of the image data is estimated and a width of the area of the image data is adjusted based on the position of center of gravity; and determine whether the obstacle in the area is a person by comparing a post-adjustment area obtained after the center-of-gravity area-width adjustment process is performed with dictionary data.

Abstract: A mobile vehicle includes one or more wheels, a sensor configured to detect the position of a follow target, and a controlling section configured to control the one or more wheels based on a detection result of the sensor such that the mobile vehicle follows the follow target. The controlling section is configured to determine a change point at which the traveling direction of the follow target has changed based on the detection result of the sensor, and to set a target point based on the change point.
