Abstract
In an image including a continuous visual field of 360 degrees, such as a celestial sphere image, in a case where a partial region is displayed as an output target region, transition from a certain output target region to the other output target region is realized smoothly and with natural feeling, without having visually uncomfortable feeling. For this reason, a transition source output target region and a transition destination output target region are specified, in an output target region which is a partial region of the entire image, which is an image having a continuous visual field of 360 degrees in at least one direction. Then, a visual field transition path from the specified transition source output target region to the specified transition destination output target region is automatically determined.
