PURPOSE:To provide a video camera driving device which is capable of automatically tracking an object without requiring a thermally-sensitive sensor such as an infrared ray camera, etc. CONSTITUTION:When a part of video (for instance, a part of the face of a speaker) displayed on a speaker display monitor 5 is desigated as a noted area, the motion vector of this area is calculated as an area specific vector and area specific vector information S14 showing this vector is supplied to a control angle arithmetic part 15. Thus, the area specific vector information S14 is converted into angle vector information S15 showing the angles in the horizontal direction and vertical direction of a camera fixing base. Next, a camera fixing base driving part 3 changes the angles in the horizontal direction and vertical direction of the camera fixing base in accordance with each angle vector information S15. As a result, the angle of a video camera 4 is controlled by following up the motion of the speaker and the video of the speaker is displayed at the center of the monitor 5. |
