ABSTRACT:
A motion detection device includes a feature extracting section2extracting a feature area of an object from among frame images clipped by an image pickup section1, a feature standardizing section3standardizing a size of a feature area extracted by the feature extracting section2, a balloting section4counting up a ballot value of an image area on a frame image located in a standardized pattern that is standardized by the feature standardizing section3, and a shift speed detecting section5calculating a gradient of a counted-up ballot value and calculating a shift direction, a shift speed and position of a feature area based on the gradient.
