An image processing device includes a signal processing device, and the signal processing device is configured to perform distance determination processing of determining, based on a depth map concerning an image displayed on a display, an image portion inside a target distance range which is a predetermined distance range in the image, and an image portion outside the target distance range, and perform image processing of subjecting at least the image portion outside the target distance range to image processing of monotonizing visibility based on a determination result of the distance determination processing and displaying the image on the display.

Image processing device, image processing method, recording medium storing image processing program and image pickup apparatus

An imaging device, comprising an image sensor that images a shooting target and outputs image data, a memory that stores inference models for performing guidance display or automatic control, when shooting the shooting target, an inference engine that performs inference for the control of the guidance display or automatic control, using the inference model, and a controller that determines whether or not the inference model is suitable for shooting a shooting target that the user wants, and if it is determined that the inference model is not suitable for shooting, requests generation of an inference model that is suitable for a shooting target the user wants to an external learning device.

Imaging device, information terminal, control method for imaging device, and control method for information terminal

A display system, that is capable of displaying substantially the same content on a wearable terminal that is attached to the head of a user and has a first display section, and on a unit other than the wearable terminal that has a second display, comprises a controller that determines an object the user is gazing at, and a display controller that controls update of display states based on the object that has been determined, when an image, that has been displayed on the second display, is displayed on the first display.

Display system, mobile information unit, wearable terminal and information display method

A display apparatus includes an image acquisition unit to acquire a first image by imaging, an information acquisition unit to acquire first imaging range information including information on a first imaging, range of the imaging acquired by the image acquisition unit, and a communication unit, to perform communication to acquire, from an external device acquiring a second image by imaging, second imaging range information including information on a second imaging range of the imaging acquired by the external device. The display apparatus also includes a controller to acquire an area included in the first imaging range and the second imaging range as a corresponding range, and a display controller to generate display information indicative of the corresponding range, and a display to display the display information.

Display apparatus, display system, and control method for display apparatus

An imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit, a first image processor, and a record processor. The imaging unit sequentially acquires image data groups comprising pieces of image data different in exposure conditions to generate HDR moving image frames. The first image processor subjects the pieces of the image data belonging to each of the image data groups to first composition processing, to generate HDR moving image data comprising HDR moving image frames. The record processor is configured to record image data for still images so that the pieces of the image data belonging to each of the image data groups are subjected to second composition processing different from the first composition processing, to generate HDR still image data.

Imaging apparatus and imaging method

An information terminal apparatus includes a communication section configured to perform communication with an image pickup apparatus capable of performing time-lapse photographing, a signal processing section configured to generate, halfway in a photographing period by the image pickup apparatus, a check image based on a plurality of picked-up images transmitted from the image pickup apparatus and acquired via the communication section, and a display control section configured to display the check image generated by the signal processing section. Halfway in photographing of the time-lapse photographing, a time-lapse moving image is generated using a photographing result of the time-lapse photographing performed to that point and displayed, whereby quality of the time-lapse moving image is made predictable. A change of setting of the time-lapse photographing is received and reflected on subsequent time-lapse photographing, whereby a user easily obtains a desired picked-up image.

Information terminal apparatus, image pickup apparatus, image-information processing system, and image-information processing method for controlling time-lapse imaging

An apparatus including a processor comprising hardware, wherein the processor is configured to: perform a selection operation of selecting one or more pickup images among a time-sequential series of pickup images; perform a correction operation to correct a brightness of the one or more pickup images selected by the selection operation; and generate a composite image based on: one or more pickup images among the series of pickup images not selected; and a result of the correction operation.

Apparatus, method, and computer-readable storage device for generating composite image

An image processing apparatus is configured as follows. Namely, an image processing apparatus is provided with an imaging device in which a plurality of types of imaging elements having different spectral sensitivities are aligned on a single plane and which obtains a color imaging signal, first edge direction judging unit which judges a direction along which an edge is produced in the color imaging signal based on pixel values of the respective imaging elements, a high-color difference region judging unit which judges a region where the pixel values have a high-color difference, second edge direction judging unit which further judges a direction of the edge, direction dependence smoothing unit which smoothes the pixel values of the respective imaging elements by interpolating them along the direction, and omnidirectional smoothing unit which smoothes the pixel values of the respective imaging elements in all directions based on pixel values of peripheral pixels.
