There is provided a control device, an imaging system, and a 3D model data generation method capable of appropriately extracting a subject from a moving image. The control device includes a control unit that performs control to synchronize an imaging timing at which an imaging device performs imaging with a display timing at which a display device located in an imaging range of the imaging device displays a first moving image, and an image processing unit that performs foreground/background difference processing on the basis of a second moving image captured by the imaging device at a first timing and a third moving image captured by the imaging device at a second timing different from the first timing. The second moving image and the third moving image both include at least a part of the first moving image whose display timing is synchronized between the second moving image and the third moving image. The present technology can be applied to, for example, an imaging system for capturing a moving image used for generating a 3D model.

Display of free viewpoint video content is switched so as to alleviate health hazard to viewers without impairing the reality. The omni window is a window integrating all windows, through each of which each sub-content is looked in from main content, and also serves as an entrance to a free viewpoint space of each sub-content. A viewer can go back and forth between different free viewpoint spaces by way of the omni window and the free viewpoint video is switched in accordance with such an exploring motion within the spaces. Furthermore, it is possible to impart a conversion function for a perceived size of the viewer to the omni window.

Information processing device and information processing method

There is provided an image processing apparatus that includes an ML3D model generation section, which are applicable to a home server that generates a display image of a predetermined viewpoint from an omnidirectional image or the like. The ML3D model generation section receives transmission information in which auxiliary information is added to at least one of texture information of a first layer, depth information of the first layer, texture information of a second layer or depth information of the second layer, and executes predetermined image processing using the auxiliary information for at least one of the texture information of the first layer, the depth information of the first layer, the texture information of the second layer or the depth information of the second layer.

The present disclosure relates to an image processing device and an image processing method for achieving an easy change of a display mode of each object in live-action content. The image processing device includes an image generation section that changes a display mode of each of objects within a display image on the basis of segment information that indicates a position of a segment in which each of the objects is present, the position of the segment being a position in each of a plurality of layer images that are images generated on the basis of a plurality of captured images and are images classified into a plurality of layers in accordance with distances of the images from a predetermined visual point. For example, the present disclosure is applicable to a display device or the like.

Provided is an image processing device. A feature point detection unit detects a feature point from moving image data. An association processing unit associates the feature point with additional information, the feature point being selected based on feature point selection information for selecting one or at least two feature points that display the additional information displayed to be accompanied with the feature point. A motion analysis unit analyzes a changing behavior of the feature point through reproduction of moving image data. A data generating unit generates data indicating change content to change display of the additional information associated with the feature point based on motion information indicating the behavior of the feature point analyzed by the motion analysis unit and a display scenario indicating a change pattern to change the additional information added to the feature point according to the behavior of the feature point.
