Abstract: A distance information generation apparatus obtains a measurement depth image that expresses a measurement result for a distance to an object and a color image captured at a corresponding field of view. The measurement depth image is upsampled by a predetermined technique to generate a candidate depth image. On the basis of a result of analyzing the color image, a reflection characteristic for the object, and information regarding a relative motion between an image capturing apparatus and the object, a reliability image, in which a reliability for a distance value expressed by the candidate depth image is set for each pixel, is generated. A distance value having a high reliability is read out for each pixel from the candidate depth image, whereby an output depth image is generated.

Abstract: An image acquisition section of an information processing apparatus acquires, from an imaging apparatus, polarization images in a plurality of orientations. A normal acquisition section of an image analysis section detects a surface of a subject by acquiring a normal vector on the basis of orientation dependence of polarization luminance. A surface assumption section assumes the presence of an undetected surface continuing from the detected surface. A subject detection section confirms whether or not the assumed surface is present using a normal vector estimated for the assumed surface. An output data generation section generates and outputs output data using information regarding the detected surface.

Abstract: An image generation device divides a distorted-image plane into pixel blocks in order to generate a distorted image in consideration of the distortion and chromatic aberration of an eyepiece. In the plane of a source image, the image generation device determines individual RGB sample positions included in the pixel blocks, sets a bounding rectangle containing the individual RGB sample positions, and determines, for example, computation target pixels corresponding to the bounding rectangle. The image generation device calculates the pixel values of, for example, the computation target pixels, interpolates and samples the calculated pixel values, and regards the results of interpolation and sampling as the pixel values of the distorted image.

Abstract: When a preset event occurs during a game progress, game software outputs an event code indicating the event that has occurred. A recording apparatus records a game video generated by execution of the game software, in association with time information. An event information transmitting section transmits, to a management server, event information including the event code and the event occurrence time. A video information transmitting section transmits, to the management server, an image ID set for the game video in the recording apparatus and time information indicating the start time and the end time of the game video. An editing management section acquires, from the management server, event data that identifies the event that has occurred in the game video, and determines a scene to be edited. A video editing section performs editing processing on the game video, based on the scene determined by the editing management section.
