To detect an object robustly when it has influence of change of lighting or weather, or to detect a motion information, such as position and speed or the like of the object with sufficient accuracy, by the method of calculating three-dimensional coordinate of the object of pedestrian, bicycle or the like and detecting the object from information on height, and asking for parallax image using correlation operation for image acquired from stereo camera attached in pillar or the like which exists in road.
A processing area established according to position and height of the object and arrangement of stereo camera is established plurally for acquired image. The object of pedestrian, bicycle or the like is detected by applying the method using a principle of a plane projection stereo method for every established processing area. The object of whole image is detected by unifying the object detection result for every processing area. The motion information, such as position, speed or the like is detected by tracking the detected object sequentially.
