Abstract
An object is to detect generation of a light streak regardless of a direction in which the light streak extends. An image processing device includes a light spot detection unit, a light streak candidate extraction unit, and a light streak presence/absence determination unit. The light spot detection unit detects a light spot having a luminance value larger than or equal to a predetermined value from an image acquired by a camera mounted in a vehicle. The light streak candidate extraction unit extracts a light streak candidate extending from the light spot detected by the light spot detection unit. The light streak presence/absence determination unit determines that the light streak candidate is a light streak when a difference in angle between a portion of the light streak candidate extending from the light spot to one side and a portion of the light streak candidate extending from the light spot to the other side is within a predetermined range.
