Abstract

The present invention relates to a motion detecting apparatus and method which is capable of correctly detecting a moving object by determining a motion variation on a pixel basis through comparison between frames. The motion detecting apparatus can correctly detect a region of a moving object by determining whether pixels of the input image correspond to an object, garbage or background on a pixel-basis and can prevent a detected object from missing from an overlapping region occurring in object detection through the existing frame-based comparison, which can result in high accuracy of detection of the moving object.
