Abstract
An image processing apparatus for tracking an image of a predetermined object included in an input captured image includes acquiring the captured image, executing tracking processing to identify a position of the image of the predetermined object included in the captured image, executing the tracking processing using different matching methods, acquiring situation information indicating a state of the predetermined object and/or an image capture situation of the captured image, and switching, on a basis of the situation information, to executing the tracking processing using either a first tracking unit or a second tracking unit on a basis of the captured image. The matching method used by the first tracking unit has a lower power consumption associated with executing the tracking processing than the matching method used by the second tracking unit.
