Abstract
Embodiments of the invention relate to an image processing apparatus and method of a black box system for vehicles, which can simplify an analysis stage without causing any Doppler effect by directly analyzing an image of a camera basically mounted to the black box for vehicles, and which includes a unit for detecting an accident risk before a sudden braking operation and occurrence of an accident. The image processing apparatus includes: a subject distance change detector which analyzes a size change of a subject present in an image captured by a camera to detect a distance change between the camera and the subject; a light source analyzer which analyzes a light source present in the image; an image divider which divides the image into plural sections to apply a differently weighted accident-risk level value to each of the divided sections; and an alarm unit for generating an alarm corresponding to an accident-risk situation in the divided sections.
