An apparatus for providing object information based on an image sequence including a plurality of images is provided. The apparatus includes an object detector for conducting object detection on three or more images of the plurality of images of the image sequence to obtain the object information, wherein each image of the image sequence on which object detection is conducted, is an object-detected image of the image sequence, and wherein each image of the image sequence on which object detection is not conducted, is not an object-detected image of the image sequence. Moreover, the apparatus includes an object tracker for conducting object tracking on one or more images of the image sequence to obtain the object information.
