Abstract:
1. An object detection system including a first and a second image processing apparatus: wherein the first image processing apparatus comprises: a reduction unit configured to reduce each frame image of an input moving image input at a first frame rate; a first detection unit configured to detect a predetermined object from each reduced frame image obtained by the reduction unit to obtain a first detection result of detecting the predetermined object from a low resolution input moving image with a high frame rate; and a transmission unit configured to transmit the input moving image at a second frame rate lower than the first frame rate and the first detection result from the low resolution input moving image with the high frame rate to the second image processing apparatus; and the second image processing apparatus comprises; a reception unit configured to receive the input moving image transmitted at the second frame rate and the first detection result from the low resolution input moving image with the high frame rate from the first image processing apparatus; a second detection unit configured to detect the predetermined object from each frame image of the input moving image received at the second frame rate to obtain a second detection result of detecting the predetermined object from a high resolution input moving image with a low frame rate; and an output unit configured to output the first detection result from the low resolution input moving image of the high frame rate and the second detection result from the high resolution input moving image with the low frame rate.
