There is provided an information processing apparatus including a processing unit that tracks a target on the basis of a captured image that has been captured by an imaging device and sensor information obtained by communication from a sensor that senses the target.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and information processing system

Provided is an imaging device including: as assistant control unit that determines, on the basis of user's proficiency level information regarding imaging, an item presented to assist the imaging; and a presentation unit that presents item information, which is information regarding the item, to the user.

Imaging device, imaging method, and program

A detection apparatus has a detector for detecting, on the basis of an object area that is an area corresponding to an object in an image, an effective focus area from two or more focus areas set to the image.

Detection apparatus, detection method, detection program, and imaging apparatus

An information processing apparatus includes a control unit configured to determine a setting of a light emitting unit according to concept data indicating a characteristic of a desired image and a light emission result of the light emitting unit.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, program, and lighting system

A method for processing image information has accessing position information associated with images, identifying a position sequence that provides a series of locations along a pathway corresponding to a subject, and displaying the images in an order of the position sequence. The position sequence is adjusted based on movement of the subject.

Image information processing method, apparatus, and program utilizing a position sequence

An information processing apparatus includes a control unit configured to determine a setting of a light emitting unit according to concept data indicating a characteristic of a desired image and a light emission result of the light emitting unit, and the control unit controls the determined setting to maintain the concept data in a case where change in an object has occurred.

The present technology relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program that are designed to enable easy generation of a path for successively displaying characteristic images. The information processing device includes a setting unit that sets a path for connecting characteristic portions in at least one image by referring to metadata including at least information about feature points detected from the image. The setting unit sets the path by determining a regression curve, using the feature points. In a case where the feature points include a feature point at a distance equal to or longer than a predetermined threshold value from the regression curve, the setting unit redetermines the regression curve after removing a feature point detected from an image including a feature point having a low score among the feature points. The present technology can be applied to information processing devices that process still images and moving images.

Information processing device, information processing method, and program

An information processing apparatus including circuitry that connects a reference image and a target image with at least one of a plurality of complement images based on a reference viewpoint of a subject and a target viewpoint of the subject in response to an identification of the target viewpoint. Each of the plurality of complement images corresponds to a complementary viewpoint of the subject between the reference viewpoint and the target viewpoint. At least one of the plurality of complement images is an interpolation image, which is an image corresponding to a virtual viewpoint along the virtual path.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

There is provided a control apparatus including: a processing unit configured to decide, on a basis of object information indicating a state of an object, a plurality of imaging devices that image the objects such that each of all the objects included in a predetermined area imaged by the plurality of imaging devices falls within an angle of view at which the at least two or more imaging devices perform imaging, and control each of the plurality of imaging devices.

Control apparatus and control method

The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and method that enables to correctly obtain an area of a main object at the time of auto focusing. A control block selects a local focus area from information of a taken image and supplies designated focus position information indicative of the selected local focus area to an image processing block. The image processing block executes a control operation related with focusing on the basis of object area information indicative of an area corresponding to two or more objects within an image and designated focus position information indicative of a designated focus position in this image. The present disclosure is applicable to an imaging apparatus, for example.

Image processing apparatus and method

Provided is an information processing device including an adjustment value determination unit that determines a second image quality adjustment value of each of a plurality of cameras on a basis of a first image quality adjustment value of each of the plurality of cameras and a confidence level of each of the plurality of cameras that are acquired from each of the plurality of cameras.

Information processing device, information processing method, and information processing system

The present technology relates to a video processing device, a video processing method, and a program for providing a bullet time video centering on a moving object. The video processing device acquires view point position information indicating the range of movement of a view point position for an object in an input image frame where the object is imaged in chronological order at multiple different view point positions. Time information indicates a time range in the chronological order of imaging the input image frame. The device processes the input image frame such that the object is at a specific position on an output image frame when the view point position moves within the time range indicated by the time information and the view point position movement range indicated by the view point position information.

Video processing device, video processing method, and program

[Object] Technology capable of adjusting a view angle area more easily and intuitively is desired. [Solution] According to the present disclosure, there is provided an information processing device including: a control unit which superimposes an adjustment view angle area for adjusting a view angle area of one imaging device among a plurality of imaging devices onto the view angle area of the one imaging device. According to the present disclosure, since a control unit superimposes an adjustment view angle area onto a view angle area of one imaging device, a user can adjust the view angle area more easily and intuitively. Of course, the effects of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

The present technology relates to an information processing device and method, and a program which enable a photographing position and a photographing attitude to be inferred under a more lenient condition. A position/attitude calculation unit calculates a photographing position and a photographing attitude of a captured image to be processed relative to a known photographing position and photographing attitude of one captured image in a reference space on the basis of two captured images having five or more feature points that correspond to each other. In addition, the position/attitude calculation unit calculates a photographing position and a photographing attitude of the captured image to be processed in the reference space on the basis of a position of a subject in the reference space corresponding to a common feature point in the two captured images and another captured image of which a photographing position and a photographing attitude are known and the photographing position and the photographing attitude of the captured image to be processed relative to the photographing position and the photographing attitude of the one captured image. The present technology can be applied to smartphones.
