The information processing method includes segment extraction processing and adjustment processing. In the segment extraction processing, a segment corresponding to a label associated with an effect is extracted from a video of a camera (). In the adjustment processing, an application position of the effect is adjusted according to a change in a posture of the camera (), which posture is detected by utilization of information including acceleration data, in such a manner that the application position of the effect is not deviated from the extracted segment.

Method, device and medium where an effect applied to a segment of a video is changed according to posture detected by a camera

The present technology relates to an image processing apparatus and method that allow to more accurately identify image processing target areas in an image. An image processing apparatus of the present technology includes a determination unit that determines, on the basis of reliability information indicating reliability of depth information, whether to make a determination on the basis of the depth information, the determination being as to whether an area is a target area for predetermined image processing, and the depth information indicating a depth of an image. The present technology can be applied to, for example, an imaging apparatus that captures a subject, a server that processes a captured image, etc.

Image processing apparatus and method

The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program making it possible to further enhance entertainability. A play state recognition unit recognizes a play state of a game. The effect rendering unit performs image processing for adding an effect to an image representing the state of the commentator that makes a gaming commentary on the basis of the play state of the game recognized by the play state recognition unit. For example, a game status indicating predetermined information is displayed at a predetermined location on the game screen of the game in accordance with the play state of the game. The play state recognition unit analyzes the game status to recognize the play state of the game. The present technology can be applied to a video distribution service that distributes a video of a game screen, for example.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and program

The present disclosure relates to an image processing device, an imaging device, and an image processing method to superimpose a complementary image in such a manner that an appearance becomes more natural. From an image acquired by imaging of an arbitrary subject, a removal region selecting unit selects a region, in which an intended object to be removed is included, as a removal region with reference to distance information that is acquired when the image is imaged and that indicates a distance to the subject. Based on the distance information, a complementary region specifying unit specifies a complementary region to complement the removal region from a region including a background of the object to be removed in the image. An image superimposition processing unit superimposes a complementary image generated from the complementary region on a place from which the removal region is deleted in the image.

Image processing device, imaging device, and image processing method for replacing selected image area based on distance

Image processing device and method for processing images captured at different times. The method may comprise determining a location of a first area in a first image, determining in a second image captured at a different time than the first image, a location of a second area, wherein the first area and the second area include a same object, and determining a new background area in the second image based on the location of the first area and the location of the second area, wherein the new background area includes a portion of the second image included in the first area but not included in the second area.
