A video compression apparatus includes: an acquisition unit configured to acquire video data including a plurality of frames outputted from an imaging element that has a first imaging region to image a subject and a second imaging region to image a subject and for which a first frame rate can be set for the first imaging region and a second frame rate higher than the first frame rate can be set for the second imaging region; and a compression unit configured to compress the video data acquired by the acquisition unit based on the first frame rate and the second frame rate.

Video compression apparatus, electronic apparatus, and video compression program

A display device includes an acquisition unit that acquires moving image data generated by an image-capturing device and velocity information on the image-capturing device while generating the moving image data, and a display control unit that controls a region to be processed for a moving image to be displayed on a display unit using the moving image data, based on the velocity information acquired by the acquisition unit.

Display device and program

An image-capturing apparatus for generating a moving image includes an image sensor that receives light from a subject and outputs moving image data, an acquisition unit that acquires velocity information, and a control unit that controls an exposure time of the image sensor. The control unit controls the image sensor to receive the light from the subject for a first exposure time and changing the first exposure time to a second exposure time for accumulating electric charges, the second exposure time being longer than the first exposure time, based on the velocity information of the image-capturing apparatus.
