摘要：We described various properties of a Horizon View Camera (HVC), which is a unique optical system composed of a camera and a mirror. The HVC makes it possible to direct the optical axis of the camera to the horizon using the mirror. The upper part of the image was the reflected image in the mirror. This image included only objects on the ground a part from the ground itself. Another low part is the direct image in front of the HVC. These were obtained by the HVC at the same time. The HVC, therefore, has unique properties for detecting objects, and ground region extraction was easy. We described the HVC's structure and properties, and detected objects using these properties. In the experiments, we confirmed that detecting objects using the HVC was easy and effective.
