  • Patent number: 10956733
    Abstract: An information processing system includes circuitry that inputs an image, and determines whether the image deviates from at least one desired image capture condition. The circuitry identifies a deviation amount of the image relative to the at least one desired image capture condition, and generates a deformed image in which a deviation from the at least one desired image capture condition is increased by a predetermined amount over the deviation amount identified.

  • Patent number: 9727993
    Abstract: An in-image capturing unit captures an image of a subject in a direction facing a front surface of an image processing apparatus, as an in-image, and an out-image capturing unit captures an image of a subject in a direction facing a back surface of the image processing apparatus, as an out-image. A signal processing unit obtains a binary image as additional information, the binary image being obtained by binarizing the in-image, for example, and adds the additional information to image data of the out-image. Additionally, the signal processing unit combines the binary image serving as the additional information with the out-image when the out-image is reproduced, and displays the resultant image. In such a manner, information obtained from the in-image is added to the out-image as additional information, and thus it is possible to more effectively display an image and improve convenience.
