Abstract
A determination apparatus includes a first acquisition unit, a second acquisition unit, and a controller. The first acquisition unit acquires a facial photograph image, included in a medium holding the facial photograph image, as a first facial image. The second acquisition unit acquires a captured image obtained by capturing an image of an imaging area, in which the face of a driver is assumed to be located, at a start of driving and/or during driving. The controller extracts an image of the face of the driver as a second facial image from the captured image acquired from the second acquisition unit, compares the first facial image and the second facial image, and determines whether the driver is the person in the facial photograph image held by the medium.
