Abstract
According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes a camera interface for connecting to a camera, a communication interface for connecting to an external device, and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured to acquire an image from the camera via the camera interface, identify at least two different types of key points of an object depicted in the image, calculate evaluation values of respective combinations in which the different types of key points are connected to one another, and then select at least two patterns of combinations with other key points in descending order of the evaluation values for each of the key points. The processing unit recognizes the object depicted in the image by connecting combinations of at least two patterns selected for each of the key points with other key points.
