Abstract: An image input unit inputs a plurality of images in a time series. Each input image includes a boundary line extending toward a vanishing point on a plane. A reverse projection image generation unit generates a reverse projection image of each input image by projecting information related to each input image onto the plane. A boundary line detection unit detects the boundary line from the reverse projection image by identifying a boundary line candidate on each reverse projection image.

Abstract: A plurality of images are inputted in time series at a predetermined interval. An image processing section divides one image into a plurality of blocks and calculates each evaluation value between a particular block on the one image and each neighboring block on next image. A reduced image processing section reduces the plurality of images by a predetermined reduction ratio, divides one reduced image corresponding to the one image into a plurality of blocks, and calculates each evaluation value between a particular block on the one reduced image and each neighboring block on other reduced image corresponding to a multiple of the predetermined interval for the predetermined reduction ratio. A moving quantity detection section counts the evaluation value by unit of the each neighboring block for the time serial image and the other reduced image, selects one neighboring block whose evaluation value is highest, and calculates a moving quantity between the particular block and the one neighboring block.
