Abstract: An object is to easily and appropriately identify the orientation of imaging means at the time of image capturing. A control section of an imaging device or an image processing device acquires an image captured by an imaging section and performs image recognition processing of recognizing a photographic subject corresponding to a first orientation such as a horizontal imaging orientation or a vertical imaging orientation in the image so as to judge whether a predetermined photographic subject is present in the image. Then, based on the judgment result, the control section identifies whether the orientation of the imaging device or the imaging section at the time of image capturing is the first orientation or a second orientation.

Abstract: A power source apparatus of the present invention includes a battery module, a housing constituting a first chamber configured to house the battery module, the housing having a bracket configured to house and arrange a plurality of the battery modules in parallel, a chassis constituting an inner space surrounded by a plurality of wall surfaces, the chassis storing the housing in the inner space, a blower disposed inside the chassis, the blower being configured to blow air, and a second chamber disposed between the wall surfaces and the bracket and configured to pass the air to an intake portion of the blower, the air having passed through the first chamber. A length of the bracket is longer than a distance between the wall surfaces in a direction of parallel arrangement of the plurality of battery modules, the wall surfaces constituting an inner surface of the second chamber.

Abstract: A control unit 21 of a main device 20 is configured to recognize a predetermined subject (face of person) included in a wide-angle image taken by an imaging device 10 and to correct distortion of an image (face image of the person) of a part of the subject, and to associate a part of the wide-angle image with the corrected image of the part of the subject, e.g., to display a part of the wide-angle image with the corrected image of the part of the subject on a reproduction screen.
