Abstract:
A moving body position estimating device includes an acquisition unit and a processor. The acquisition unit acquires information including first data relating to a first image and second data relating to a second image including a difference between the first image and the second image accompanying a movement of a moving body. The processor implements estimating, based on the information, a direction of a rotation accompanying the movement; detecting, based on the direction of the rotation, first feature points inside a first region inside the first image and second feature points inside a second region inside the first image; and determining first corresponding points inside a third region inside the second image and estimating a change of a position of the moving body based on each of the first feature points and each of the first corresponding points.
