Abstract
An image processing apparatus performs an image recognition process, such as pattern matching or contour detection, on image data supplied from an image pickup device, and stores history data of the image recognition process in an external storage apparatus. In this case, an extraction image is extracted from an extraction region determined in accordance with the image recognition process performed on the input image data and is stored in the external storage device as history data. Furthermore, the history data logged in the external storage device may include a compressed image that is obtained by compressing, using lossy compression, the entire image data subjected to the image processing performed by the image processing apparatus.
