A fire detection device luminance data over a time period longer than a repetition period of movement of a flame, to generate resampled data, and a device that calculates an average value of N (natural number equal to or larger than 2) items of the resampled data, and determines that the input image is an image of a flame, by comparing a count of sampled data items larger than the average value, or a count of sampled data items smaller than the average value, with a predetermined value.

Fire detection device

An image processing device having an improved image processing speed and capable of detecting an object at high speed. Where frames are thinned out for real-time processing during frame processing of an image signal, line interval expanding unit expands the interval between lines of the image signal by an amount corresponding to the number of the frames thinned out. Image processing unit performs line processing of the lines whose interval has been expanded, according to pipeline control.

Image processing device

A detecting device for road monitoring which detects traveling states of vehicles on a road (traffic stagnation, stopping of vehicles, etc.) or fallen objects on a road is provided. Luminance change detecting unit prepares background image data by taking a time average of luminance for each picture element, and detects image portions where inputted image data is different in luminance from the prepared background image data. Hue change detecting unit prepares background image data by taking a time average of hue for each picture element, and detects image portions where inputted image data is different in hue from the prepared background image data. Overlapping portion extracting and judging unit extracts overlapping portions between image portions detected by the luminance change detecting unit when it is in the daytime and illuminance is larger than a predetermined value and image portions detected by the hue change detecting unit at the same point of time, and judges the extracted overlapping portions to represent objects to be detected. Comprehensive portion extracting and judging unit extracts comprehensive portions covering image portions detected by the luminance change detecting unit when it is in the daytime and illuminance is smaller than a predetermined value and image portions detected by the hue change detecting unit at the same point of time, and judges the extracted comprehensive portions to represent objects to be detected.
