1. An object matching method of matching an object staying inside an overlapped monitoring region between adjacent monitoring regions captured by two image capturing units, the two image capturing units respectively having a first coordinate system and a second coordinate system, the object matching method being applied to a camera system having an operation processor electrically connected with the two image capturing units, the object matching method comprising:

  • the operation processor detecting at least one moving object located inside the overlapped monitoring region to generate a first coordinate point upon the first coordinate system and a second coordinate point upon the second coordinate system;

    the operation processor computing a plurality of transforming parameters of the first coordinate system relative to the second coordinate system;

    the operation processor setting some of the plurality of transforming parameters having similar parameter values as being selfsame according to a comparison result between the transforming parameters and a threshold;

    the operation processor defining an amount of the said selfsame transforming parameters as a reliability level;

    the operation processor determining a final transform parameter by the reliability level;

    the operation processor utilizing the final transform parameter to transform the first coordinate point into a third coordinate point upon the second coordinate system; and

    the operation processor determining whether the first coordinate point and the second coordinate point are considered as the same moving object when a difference between the third coordinate point and the second coordinate point is smaller than a specific value.
