Abstract
Provided is an apparatus and method for automatically recognizing an object by using a low-speed camera in a dual photographing mode, in which the apparatus includes an image acquirer and an image information analyzer. In the present disclosure, without using a separate motion sensor a movement state of a specific object during sports activities may be automatically recognized by using a successive photographing function of a low-speed camera in a dual photographing mode. Further, once an object starts moving, high-speed images in a multiple exposure mode may be automatically captured by using a high-speed photographing function of the low-speed camera in a dual photographing mode without using an expensive high-speed camera, and based on the captured images, movement information, including a movement speed and direction of the sports ball, the force and axis of rotation of the ball, and the like, is automatically analyzed to generate object movement information.
