Abstract: An image control apparatus which controls a search screen for searching a related image, comprises: an attribute display section setting a reference image and causing to display a specific condition in each of the attributes of the reference image; a related image display section causing to display the related image which has been searched by an image search section according to the specific attribute condition selected from among the displayed specific conditions; a search screen display section causing to display the search screen including at least the reference image, the specific condition in each of the attributes of the reference image, and the searched related image; and a change screen display section causing to display a change screen for changing the specific attribute condition to be used for the search to a condition except the specific condition in each of the attributes related to the reference image.

Abstract: An imaging device includes an imaging unit that images a subject and that continuously creates image data on the subject; a display unit that chronologically displays live view images associated with the image data created by the imaging unit; a face detector that detects the face of a subject included in the live view image; a trimming unit that creates a face image by cutting out, from the live view images, a face area including the face of the subject detected by the face detector; and a display controller that displays the face image created by the trimming unit at a display position specified in a display area of the display unit.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes a first and a second imaging unit, a clipping unit, an image processing control unit. The first imaging unit is provided on a front face of an apparatus main body. The second imaging unit is provided on a back face of the apparatus main body. The clipping unit clips image data of the second main subject from the second acquired image data. The image processing control unit combines the first acquired image data with the image data of the second main subject clipped by the clipping unit to meet combining conditions determined by the first image data.

Abstract: A start position and an end position of a sliding operation along a direction in which the main subject moves in the video image is detected respectively as a first position and a second position. It is controlled so as to play a video image over a range between the first position and the second position. The video image constituted with the plurality of images starting with the first image and ending with the second image is played along a forward direction if the first image with the main subject at the first position precedes the second image with the main subject at the second position, and the video image constituted with the plurality of images starting with the first image and ending with the second image is played along a reverse direction if the first image follows the second image.

Abstract: An image search device includes a target-image selecting unit that selects target image data from recorded image data; a target-image displaying unit that displays the selected target-image data on a display unit; a relevant-image selecting unit that selects relevant image data that contains a predetermined number of images each having at least one element item identical to the corresponding piece of element information assigned to the target image data in such a manner that the relevant image data contains at least one image that has combination of the element items that is different from combination of the element items assigned to the other relevant images; and a relevant-image displaying unit that displays, on the display unit, the selected relevant image data containing the predetermined number of the images.

Abstract: A camera comprises an imaging unit for imaging an object image; a first storage unit for storing plural still pictures and plural motion pictures, as images, and information other than the images; a display unit for displaying one or plural images, or an image output from the imaging unit; a search source specification unit for specifying a search source image; a search condition specification unit for specifying a search condition; and a search unit for searching an image similar to the search source image specified by the search source specification unit and in accordance with the search condition specified by the search condition specification unit.

Abstract: A display apparatus of the present invention has a display section for displaying a plurality of groups of images on the same screen on a group basis. The display apparatus allows a user to select a desired group from the plurality of groups with the operation of a selection instruction section. When the user instructs image switching, only the images in the selected group is switched. Thus, the user can retrieve a target image efficiently from the groups of images managed on a group basis.

Abstract: A portable terminal comprises a LCD display screen (2) located on a control surface of a case for displaying thereon information according to the communication mode; a main soft key (3) located below the LCD display screen (2) with which can be rotated in a direction towards or away from the display screen as well as can be pressed; and first auxiliary soft key (4A) and second auxiliary soft key (4B) located on the two sides of the main soft key (3) which can be pressed. In this portable terminal, for each communication mode, function having the highest frequency of use is allocated to the main soft key (3) mode and functions having the next highest frequency of use are allocated to the first auxiliary soft key (4A) and second auxiliary soft key (4B).
