An image processing device is provided with a storage unit configured to store for each model among a plurality of models, a model template obtained by reducing a model image; an image reduction unit configured to reduce an input image by the reduction ratio for each model; and a search unit configured to search for the location of a model in an input image on the basis of a reduced input image and a model template. The storage unit stores model templates for at least two of the models wherein said model templates are obtained by reducing the model images by the same reduction ratio; and The image reduction unit processes the at least two models jointly. The image processing device is hereby capable of high-speed identification and recognition of a plurality of models from an input image.
