A method of controlling a mobile apparatus includes acquiring a first original image and a second original image, extracting a first feature point of the first original image and a second feature point of the second original image, generating a first blurring image and a second blurring image by blurring the first original image and the second original image, respectively, calculating a similarity between at least two images of the first original image, the second original image, the first blurring image, and the second blurring image, determining a change in scale of the second original image based on the calculated similarity, and controlling at least one of an object recognition and a position recognition by matching the second feature point of the second original image to the first feature point of the first original image based on the change in scale.
