Patent ID: 7983449

Claim:
A system for detecting a moving object, the system comprising: an image obtaining unit to obtain a first image of an obstacle at a predetermined position and a second image of the obstacle at a position after a movement of the system by using a light source; an image predicting unit to predict the second image at the position after the movement of the system by using the first image and information pertaining to the movement of the system; and a comparing/analyzing unit to compare and analyze the second image obtained by the image obtaining unit and the second image predicted by the image predicting unit to detect the moving object using at least one processor, wherein the image obtaining unit obtains first and second images of the obstacle by receiving the light source, which is generated in a plane and reflected from the obstacle, through a single camera sensor, wherein the image obtaining unit obtains a distance data between the light source and the obstacle at the positions at which the first image and the second image are obtained, and wherein the comparing/analyzing unit compares and analyzes a distance data at the position at which the second image is obtained by the image obtaining unit and a distance data of the predicted second image.
