  • All-around moving image distribution system, all-around moving image distribution method, image processing apparatus, communication terminal apparatus, and control methods and control programs of image processing apparatus and communication terminal apparatus
    Patent number: 9741091
    Abstract: A system of this invention is an all-around moving image distribution system for viewing an all-around moving image with realism. This all-around moving image distribution system includes an all-around camera, an all-around image generator that acquires an all-around moving image captured by the all-around camera, and generates time-series all-around frame image data, an all-around moving image data generator that encodes the time-series all-around frame image data, and generates all-around moving image data in a format reproducible in real time in a communication terminal apparatus, a distribution server that distributes, to the communication terminal apparatus, the all-around moving image data uploaded from the all-around moving image data generator, and an all-around moving image reproducer that reproduces, in real time, the all-around moving image data distributed from the distribution server, and displays a moving image of a range corresponding to a line-of-sight instruction by a user.
