Abstract
In a moving-target tracking apparatus for tracking a target moving in a dynamic picture image, color information, differential information and target position information based on a prediction for a motion according to the past motion are detected in the form of two-dimensional map. These maps are merged into a single map. A target position is detected in accordance with the merged map. Thus, an operational ability on a real-time basis and a tracking performance are improved.
