Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and an information processing system capable of achieving simpler camera calibration. A control unit generates, in a case where calibration is required for a camera of a mobile unit, a first trigger for displaying a pattern imaged by the camera on a mobile terminal, and generates a second trigger for presenting feedback to a user according to whether or not appropriate imaging of the pattern by the camera is possible. The technology according to the present disclosure can be applied to, for example, a mobile unit such as a drone or a mobile terminal such as a smartphone.

Abstract: Provided is a solid state imaging device including: a pixel array in which pixels are disposed on a matrix; an iris authenticator that extracts iris information to be used in an iris authentication process, from image data obtained from the pixel array through photoelectric conversion; and an imaging condition controller that performs control to set an imaging condition in obtaining the image data for the iris authentication process, by using information obtained in a process of extracting the iris information.

Abstract: There is provided an imaging control apparatus including a control section that creates a first image by performing exposing to a pixel with first exposure by a first exposure time and creates a second image by performing exposing to a pixel with second exposure by a second exposure time in succession to the first image and a synthesizing section that synthesizes a synthesized image in which the first image and the second image have been synthesized and a selected image selected from either the first image or the second image. The control section decides the first exposure time and the second exposure time such that an image to be selected as the selected image in the synthesizing section is switched over on a basis of an exposure ratio being a ratio of an exposure time of the synthesized image and an exposure time of the selected image.

Abstract: [Object] To provide an imaging control apparatus that can create an HDR image that is natural even in the case where an object being moving is included in a photographic subject. [Solution] There is provided an imaging control apparatus including: a control section that creates a first image by performing exposing to a pixel with first exposure by a first exposure time and creates a second image by performing exposing to a pixel with second exposure by a second exposure time in succession to the first image; and a synthesizing section that synthesizes a synthesized image in which the first image and the second image have been synthesized and a selected image selected from either the first image or the second image.

Abstract: To prolong an exposure time in an image pickup apparatus that combines a plurality of images. A gain processing unit increases or decreases a plurality of image signals using gains different from each other. An analog to digital conversion unit generates a plurality of image data by performing analog to digital conversion on the increased or decreased plurality of image signals. A calculation unit adds data obtained by multiplying short-time exposure data being any of the plurality of image data, by a ratio between the gains, and data among the plurality of image data that does not correspond to the short-time exposure data, and outputs the added data as long-time exposure data. A combining unit combines the short-time exposure data and the long-time exposure data at a predetermined combining ratio.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method and apparatus for automatically embedding information of an object in a video picked up by a camera device. A camera device generates imaging position information relating to an imaging position of the video, and view point information relating to the direction and range of the video taken from the imaging position. An object contained in the video taken by the camera device is searched in an object location managing server, based on object position information relating to the position of the predetermined object, and the imaging position information and the view point information generated by the camera device. The object information of the object hit in the object location managing server is searched in the object information managing server. The display presents an image corresponding to the video picked up by the camera device and an image corresponding to the object information of the object contained in the video.
