Motion detection apparatus
First Claim
1. A motion detection apparatus for detecting a position and a posture of an object to be measured, comprising:
- an inertia motion detecting section which detects an inertia motion of the object to be measured by using at least one of an acceleration sensor and an angular velocity sensor;
an image pickup section, which is fixed to the inertia motion detecting section, which picks up a peripheral image of the object to be measured;
an image comparing section which compares images picked up at different points in time by the image pickup section;
a camera position and posture acquiring section which detects a position and a posture of the object to be measured by using a result of comparing the images by the image comparing section; and
a spatial position and posture acquiring section which detects a position and a posture in space of the object to be measured on the basis of information obtained by the inertia motion detecting section and the camera position and posture acquiring section.

Abstract
A motion detection apparatus includes an inertia motion detection section which detects an inertia motion of an object to be measured by using at least one of an acceleration sensor or an angular velocity sensor. An image pickup section which picks up a peripheral image of the object to be measured. An image comparison section which compares images picked up at different points in time by the image pickup section. A camera position and posture acquiring section which detects a position and a posture of the object to be measured by using a result of comparing the images by the image comparison section. A spatial position and posture acquiring section which detects a position and a posture in space of the object to be measured on the basis of information obtained by the inertia motion detection section and the camera position and posture acquiring section.
