Tracking target setting device, tracking target setting method and tracking target setting program

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To appropriately set a tracking target even when a plurality of candidate targets is detected.SOLUTION: An aircraft 1 comprises: an optical sensor 13 capable of changing a detection direction; and a control unit 18. The control unit 18: partitions a visual field 130 of the optical sensor 13 into a plurality of tracking regions 132; determines, when the optical sensor 13 detects a plurality of candidate targets T in the visual field 130, whether or not the plurality of candidate targets T is detected in any one of the tracking regions 132; and, when determining that the plurality of candidate targets T is detected only in one tracking region 132, sets a center of an area where the plurality of candidate targets T is detected in the tracking region 132 as a tracking target of the optical sensor 13.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
