An information processing apparatus including at least one processor or circuit to function as a detection unit to detect a predetermined target object from an image captured by an image capturing unit, a setting unit to set a predetermined region with respect to the image, a determination unit to determine whether the target object has exited the predetermined region, a control unit to control an image capturing range of the image capturing unit according to a determination result, and a zoom magnification setting unit to set zoom magnification of the image capturing unit to the same zoom magnification as that before the target object enters the predetermined region. When the target object has exited inside the predetermined region, the determination unit performs an exit determination based on whether the target object has exited from an exit determination region that is smaller than the predetermined region.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and storage medium

An information processing apparatus acquires association information for associating an imaging range of a first imaging apparatus with an imaging range of a second imaging apparatus configured to change the imaging range by controlling at least one of pan, tilt, and zoom. In addition, the information processing apparatus determines whether a change in a position of a subject that is derived based on a position of the subject detected from a first image captured by the first imaging apparatus and the association information, and a change in the position of the subject on the first image satisfy a predetermined condition.

Information processing apparatus having image range of imaging apparatus changed by controlling at least one of pan, tilt, and zoom, information processing method, and storage medium

There is provided with an image capture control device. An estimation unit estimates an orientation of the subject detected in an image captured by the image capture device. A region control unit sets a first region in an image capture range of the image capture device based on whether or not the estimated orientation of the subject is a predetermined orientation. An image capture control unit controls the image capture direction based on whether or not the subject is in the first region.

Image capture control device, image capture device, image capture control method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

An image processing apparatus detects a tracking target object in an image, executes tracking processing to track the object, determines whether an attribute of an object detected from the image is a predetermined attribute, identifies, when a first state in which the object is detected changes to a second state with the object not detected, a given object included in the image and positioned at least partially in front of the object in the second state, based on a position of the object in the first state, controls the tracking processing, based on a determination whether an attribute of the given object is the predetermined attribute, and determines, based on the result, whether to continue the tracking processing. The tracking processing continues until at least a predetermined time has elapsed when a determination to continue the tracking processing on the tracking target object for the predetermined time has been made.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

A control apparatus including an extraction unit configured to extract a subject from an image captured by an image capturing apparatus, an estimation unit configured to estimate a skeleton of the subject extracted by the extraction unit and a control unit configured to control an angle of view of the image capturing apparatus based on a result of the estimation by the estimation unit.

Control apparatus, control system, control method, and storage medium

An image capturing control apparatus is provided and detects a first target subject and a second target subject, converts intra-angle-of-view coordinates of each of the first and second target subjects into pan and tilt coordinate values, store the pan coordinate value and the tilt coordinate value of each of the first and the second target subject, determine an angle of view so as to include the first and second target subjects based on the stored pan and tilt coordinate values, and control an angle of view of the image capturing apparatus based on the determined angle of view.
