TARGET OBJECT DETERMINATION DEVICE, TARGET OBJECT DETERMINATION METHOD AND PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To determine a target object attracting attention precisely.SOLUTION: A full-length imaging unit 11 captures moving images of multiple people. A body movement amount detecting unit 12 detects the body movement amount of each of the multiple people from the images captured by the full-length imaging unit 11. A face imaging unit 13 captures a moving image of the face of each of the multiple people. An imaging unit control unit 14 controls the face imaging unit 13 and makes the face imaging unit 13 point its view to a face of a person whose detected body movement amount is less than a threshold or whose detected body movement amount decreases in the multiple people to capture the face of the person. A line of sight detecting unit 15 detects a direction of a line of sight of the person whose face appears in the image captured by the face imaging unit 13 from the image. A target object determination unit 17 determines a target object attracting attention on the basis of the direction of the detected line of sight.
