Abstract
A circuitry of an image processing device divides a first image into a plurality of regions, extracts a feature point from each of the regions, tracks the feature point among a plurality of images to detect a motion vector, estimates a notable target of the first image, calculates the priority level of setting of a tracking feature point for each of the regions for tracking motion of the notable target, and sets the tracking feature point to any of the regions based on the priority level.
