Imai's latest patents include an image processing device, an image processing method, and an image processing program. One of his notable inventions involves a correction process that is realized by a simpler method. This imaging apparatus includes an image acquisition unit, a template storage unit, an adaptive position specifying unit, and a distortion correction processing unit. The image acquisition unit captures an image that includes a predetermined subject. The template storage unit holds a template that contains correction degrees for various positions in a shape corresponding to the correction target region of the predetermined subject. The adaptive position specifying unit identifies coordinates that adapt to a template in the image. Finally, the distortion correction processing unit corrects the image based on the coordinates specified by the adaptive position specifying unit and the correction degree included in the template.
Another of Imai's patents describes an image processing apparatus that consists of an image acquisition unit and an image processing unit. The image acquisition unit captures a face image, while the image processing unit adjusts the brightness of the acquired face image. This unit combines the original face image with the adjusted image, utilizing map data that designates a predetermined region of the face as a transparent area based on the three-dimensional shape of the face.
