| 20100033579 | Image Shooting Device And Image Playback Device - An image shooting device includes: an image sensing device that, by sequential shooting, outputs a signal representing a series of shot images; a tracking processing portion that, based on the output signal of the image sensing device, sequentially detects the position of a tracking target on the series of shot images and thereby tracks the tracking target on the series of shot images; a clipping processing portion that, for each shot image, based on the detected position, sets a clipping region in the shot image and extracts the image within the clipping region as a clipped image or outputs clipping information indicating the position and extent of the clipping region; and a tracking evaluation portion that, based on the output signal of the image sensing device, evaluates the degree of reliability or ease of tracking by the tracking processing portion. The clipping processing portion varies the extent of the clipping region in accordance with the evaluated degree. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20100157107 | Image Apparatus And Electronic Apparatus - A clipping set portion includes: a main object detection portion which detects a main object in an input image and generates main object position information; a clipping region set portion which sets a clipping region for the input image based on the main object position information; and a zoom information generation portion which generates zoom information based on zoom intention information from a user input via an operation portion. The zoom intention information is information which is input via the operation portion at a time of taking the input image and indicates whether or not to perform a zoom process. | 06-24-2010 |
| 20100165104 | Drive Assistance Device - A drive assistance device has an imaging device ( | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100283582 | Wireless Communication Apparatus - A wireless communication apparatus conducts wireless communication with an external apparatus. The wireless communication apparatus includes an image capture unit which captures an image of a subject, a memory which stores image data based on the captured image, an establishment unit which establishes wireless communication between the external apparatus and the body of the wireless communication apparatus, a communication unit which transmits the image data to the external apparatus by the wireless communication as established, a battery which supplies power to the image capture unit and the communication unit, a determination unit which detects remaining battery power of the battery to determine whether or not the detected remaining battery power falls below a predetermined value, and a control unit which disconnects the wireless communication established by the establishment unit, based on a determination that the remaining battery power falls below the predetermined value, to interrupt transmission of the image data conducted by the communication unit. | 11-11-2010 |
| 20110007175 | Imaging Device and Image Reproduction Device - An imaging device ( | 01-13-2011 |
| 20110019027 | Imaging Device - An imaging device includes: a tracking processing portion which tracks a tracking target on a series of frame images based on an output signal of an image sensor; a tracking reliability evaluation portion which, based on the output signal of the image sensor, evaluates a degree of reliability of tracking by the tracking processing portion, and classifies the degree into one of a plurality of levels; and a display portion which displays the series of frame images. A tracking target icon corresponding to a tracking target and a level icon indicating an evaluated degree of reliability are displayed on a display screen. A degree of reliability is classified into one of a plurality of levels and indicated by the level icon. The tracking target icon is expressed by using the same color as that of (the clothes of) the tracking target. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110043654 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS - An image processing apparatus includes a capturer. A capturer captures an original image representing a scene. A first creator creates a first recorded image corresponding to a first cut-out area allocated to the scene, based on the original image captured by the capturer. A second creator creates a second recorded image corresponding to a second cut-out area having a size that falls below a size of the first cut-out area and being allocated to the scene, based on the original image captured by the capturer. A first outputter outputs a first display image corresponding to the first recorded image created by the first creator. A second outputter outputs depiction-range information indicating a depiction range of the second recorded image created by the second creator, in parallel with the output process of the first outputter. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20110074972 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS - An image processing apparatus includes a fetcher. A fetcher fetches an original image. A first converter converts the original image fetched by the fetcher into a first recording image. A second converter converts the original image fetched by the fetcher into a second recording image, in association with the converting process of the first converter. A first editor edits one of the first recording image converted by the first converter and the second recording image converted by the second converter, in response to an editing instruction. A second editor edits the other of the first recording image converted by the first converter and the second recording image converted by the second converter, corresponding to the editing process of the first editor. | 03-31-2011 |
