Abstract:
1. A target video detecting apparatus comprising: an input video index database (DB) that stores a video index for each frame of an input video signal; a target video index DB that stores a video index for each frame of a target video signal; a video index calculator that classifies each frame of the input video signal into a plurality of segments, calculates a video index of each frame of the input video signal by combining difference values of representative brightness values of the plurality of segments, and stores the calculated video index in the input video index DB; and a detection unit that detects a plurality of frames that are expected to be a target video signal from the input video signal by comparing a video index of the input video signal and a video index of the target video signal, and detects the target video signal from the input video signal by comparing video indexes from a start frame of the plurality of detected frames and a frame of the target video signal, which corresponds to the start frame.
