ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling a camera using an image compression algorithm. A motion region and a motionless region are determined with respect to an input image based on a motion vector of a macro block which is for the generation of compressed data from the input image. A center value and a size of a moving object is estimated from the motion region. According to the center value and the size of the moving object, the camera is controlled to track and photograph the moving object. Accordingly, a central processing unit of the moving object tracking system is relieved of substantial processing load, and the processing speed of the system is improved.
