A fingertip position estimation apparatus includes a processor that executes a process. The process includes: identifying a first fingertip position of a finger included in an image, based on a color area model that defines a color of a finger; calculating dimensions of an area that is different from a background of the image, within an area of a prescribed size that is in contact with the first fingertip position and that is positioned in a direction in which a fingertip is pointing; and when the dimensions are larger than a prescribed threshold, estimating a second fingertip position that is positioned away from the first fingertip position in the direction in which the fingertip is pointing.

Fingertip position estimation apparatus and method

A toy according to an embodiment includes a human sensor, a processor configured to change the operation mode to a suppression mode in which an operation for amusing a target is suppressed when the human sensor detects an object.

An input apparatus includes a processor which is configured to: detect a finger region containing a finger and a fingertip position in a first image captured by a first camera; set a template containing the finger region and generate a plurality of sub-templates by dividing the template along a longitudinal direction of the finger region; obtain a region that best matches the template on a second image generated by a second camera placed a prescribed distance away from the first camera and divide the region into search regions equal in number to the sub-templates along the longitudinal direction of the finger region; perform template matching between a sub-template containing the fingertip position and a corresponding search region to find a matching point corresponding to the fingertip position; and compute the fingertip position in real space based on the fingertip position and the matching point.

A flesh color detection condition determining apparatus includes a flesh color region detecting unit which detects, from an image on which a subject having a flesh color is represented, a group of pixels having colors included in a range of colors corresponding to the flesh color, as a flesh color region; an evaluation value calculating unit which calculates an evaluation value representing a size of the flesh color region; a condition alteration unit which narrows the range of colors until a difference between the evaluation value and a reference value representing a size of the subject on the image is not included in a predetermined allowable range; and a setting unit which sets a narrowest range of colors as a flesh color detection condition, among a range of colors satisfying that the difference is included in the predetermined allowable range.

An information processing device includes, a processor; and a memory which stores a plurality of instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to execute, acquiring images which includes a target object, and the images captured by a plurality of cameras on a time series basis; calculating a plurality of distance from the plurality of each cameras to a target object by using the images; and correcting, in a case where the target object has reached a predetermined x-y plane and a difference in an area of the target object between the images is equal to or less than a predetermined first threshold, the distance that has been calculated to a distance from the cameras to the x-y plane.

Information processing device and information processing method

A movement distance estimating device includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: determine, based on a first image and a second image included in images captured by an image capture device mounted on a moving body, an amount of relative movement of the moving body between a first time point at which the first image is captured and a second time point at which the second image is captured, determine a scale for the amount of relative movement, based on a relation in a three-dimensional space between a road surface and a spatial point corresponding to a feature point in an area other than a road-surface area in at least one image of the captured images, and determine a movement distance of the moving body between the first and second time points, based on the amount of relative movement and the scale.
