Abstract: Disclosed is an image recording device, wherein the image sensor acquires an image data set onto an image area of the image sensor. The position sensor detects a spatial position of the image area relative to a reference direction and provides position data that specify both an angle of rotation and a tilt angle of the image sensor. The evaluation unit determines, from the position data, a projective transformation that maps the image data set onto a projection plane, which is tilted with respect to the image area, in dependence on both the rotation and the tilt. The evaluation unit determines an image section in the projection plane for the image data set mapped onto the projection plane by a projective transformation and displays the image section with at least a region of the imaged scene that lies within the image section in the graphical user output interface.
