Abstract: In an image creating device (201) for creating an image viewably showing the distribution of an environment parameter of the environment around a character in a virtual space, a parameter acquiring unit (202) acquires an environment parameter of the environment around a character in each direction from the character, a reference curve setting unit (203) sets a reference curve surrounding the character, a trajectory point setting unit (204) sets a trajectory point in a position moved in a predetermined direction from each reference point in the reference curve by an amount of move associated with the value of the environment parameter at the reference point acquired in the direction from the character toward the reference point, and an image creating unit (205) creates an image showing the trajectory curve passing through the set trajectory points and the character viewed from the point of view placed in the virtual space.

Abstract: In an image creating device (201) for creating an image viewably showing the distribution of environment parameters in a virtual space, a parameter acquiring unit (202) acquires environment parameters at a predetermined plurality of places in a virtual space, and an image creating unit (203) creates an image based on the acquired environment parameter. The image creating unit (203) creates, for each of the predetermined plurality of places in the virtual space, an image showing a graphic drawn at a position within the image, the position being associated with the place and associated with the environment at the place.

Abstract: An object storage unit (220) stores object information, including that of a main character who wears a camouflage outfit. More specifically, the object storage unit (220) stores a standard texture (222) showing a standard camouflage pattern, an additional texture (223) showing a replaceable camouflage pattern, as well as a material properties parameter (224) that determines the material properties of the camouflage outfit. When the main character stops, a background specifying unit (232) specifies the object serving as the background of the main character by referring to a position information storage unit (240). In addition, a clothing changing unit (233) appropriate selects a combination of an additional texture (223) and a material properties parameter (224) according to the texture or other features of the specified object, thereby changing the appearance of the main character's camouflage outfit.

Abstract: A player can freely change a movement path of a virtual camera from a default path through an input means. If the virtual camera approaches a background object, the movement path changed by the player is corrected, making the virtual camera apart from the corresponding background object, so that the virtual camera is controlled not to enter the background object. Even if a field has many obstacles, a proper photographed image can be stably displayed while flexibly setting a position of the camera.

Abstract: In order to correct inappropriate swing motion into an appropriate swing motion, a swing analyzing device which measures body weight distributions in the vicinity of the big toes, the little toes, and the heels for the left and right feet at prescribed points during a swing is analyzed with trajectory and the like of balls being hit by the swing. The swing analyzing device comprises: a left foot weight measuring means and a right foot weight measuring means; a visual recording means; a synchronizing means; a recording means; a left foot template; a right foot template; and a display means to display respectively in the vicinity of the big toe, the little toe, and the heel of the left and right templates, weights loaded in corresponding areas.
