Abstract

An image processing device is provided. The image processing device includes: a tracking area setting section that sets a tracking area in a frame image of an original motion picture; a color information obtaining section that obtains color information of the tracking area set by the tracking area setting section; a tracking position estimating section that estimates a tracking position with reference to the tracking area with respect to each frame image of the original motion picture by using the color information obtained by the color information obtaining section; an output frame setting section that sets an output frame enclosing the tracking area set by the tracking area setting section and that updates the output frame based on the estimated tracking position; and a lock-on motion picture generating section that generates a motion picture that is based on the output frame.
