ABSTRACT:
A target recognizing device that creates a template concerning a target by itself is provided. The device comprises a robot camera for creating continuous images showing a target and an arithmetic operation unit for controlling the robot camera. A robot camera acquires continuous image information by means of a camera rotatable by a motor. The arithmetic operation unit comprises a template management section for allowing an update part to update a template stored in a template storage part and a target recognition section having an image storage part where the acquired image information is stored, a recognizing part for recognizing a target by using the template, and a motion command part for rotating a camera according to the result of recognition.
