This study proposes a new image processing algorithm to detect objects using their apparent streaks. A faint streak can be improved its noise-to-signal ratio with the root square of its pixel length by compression. We apply this algorithm to datasets observed at Australia remote observatory in order to confirm validity. As a result, we confirmed that the algorithm can detect object appeared with streaks fainter than background noise.
