Abstract
A tracking apparatus includes a face detection unit, a face corresponding region detection unit, a face tracking unit, a peripheral part tracking unit, a tracking switch unit. The face tracking unit tracks the face in accordance with a result detected by the face detection unit or a result detected by the face corresponding region detection unit. The peripheral part tracking unit tracks, as a part other than the face, a part of the subject having a preset positional relationship with the face. The tracking switch unit switches to the tracking of a part other than the face by the peripheral part tracking unit when the face is not tracked by the face tracking unit.
