ABSTRACT:
When a search is made for a motion vector of a moving image, a motion vector search desirable against a hard movement is devised to be made with a small processing amount, and a motion vector detection device includes a wide range motion vector search part, a narrow range motion vector search part, a motion vector prediction part, and a motion vector re-search part. A rough search is made at equal intervals on an inputted image while a corresponding position in the reference image is made the center; a fine search is made in the vicinity of a predicted value of the motion vector only at one stage in accordance with a search format of a gradient method; and from a result of both, motion vector detection is performed as a motion vector search start point by the gradient method.
