Abstract:
An image processing apparatus for tracking a target object to be tracked included in a plurality of consecutively captured images, the image processing apparatus comprises an image acquisition unit configured to acquire an image; and a tracking unit configured to detect a target object to be tracked included in the image by matching and acquire over a plurality of the images an amount of movement of the target object to be tracked and a direction of the movement of the target object to be tracked, wherein the tracking unit performs first matching by using a first template corresponding to the target object to be tracked, and performs second matching by using a second template, which is different in size or shape from the first template, in a case where a score of a result of the first matching is lower than a first threshold value.

Claim (Index 2):
The image processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the tracking unit estimates a change of a traveling direction of the target object to be tracked, based on a result of the detection of the target object to be tracked, and performs the second matching by using the second template corresponding to the traveling direction after the change.
