ABSTRACT:
In a mobile body motion calculation apparatus (100), a corresponding point calculation section (101) calculates corresponding points between images captured by a camera120. A first motion calculation section (102) calculates a first motion (Ma) of a mobile body using the corresponding points, assuming a predetermined plane in the images. A second motion calculation section (103) calculates a second motion (Mb) using the first motion (Ma) and the corresponding points.
