1. A method to process a captured image using at least one camera, the method comprising:
receiving a first image captured at a first frame rate by the at least one camera;
detecting a human object from the first image;
generating an event signal when it is detected that a product object is picked up by the human object after the human object is detected from the first image;
acquiring a second image including the human object by controlling the at least one camera to capture the image at a second frame rate higher than the first frame rate in response to the event signal;
receiving payment information from a point-of-sales (POS) device;
providing information related to the detected product object;
converting the second image to a third image of a third frame rate depending on whether the related information matches the payment information, the third frame rate being lower than the second frame rate; and
storing the payment information and the third image in a database.
