  • Publication number: 20230360368
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus comprises: a detection unit that detects a subject from an image; an inference unit that performs inference processing using an inference model on the detected subject; and a generation unit that generates an image file by combining image data of the image, information of the subject, an inference result of the inference processing, and information of the inference model. The generation unit records the inference model in a private area of the image file.

  • Publication number: 20220385883
    Abstract: There is provided an image processing apparatus comprising. An obtainment unit obtains a first circular fisheye image accompanied by a first missing region in which no pixel value is present. A generation unit generates a first equidistant cylindrical projection image by performing first equidistant cylindrical transformation processing based on the first circular fisheye image. The generation unit generates the first equidistant cylindrical projection image such that a first corresponding region corresponding to the first missing region has a pixel value in the first equidistant cylindrical projection image.

  • Patent number: 11367229
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a combining unit configured to combine a plurality of images to generate a combined image, and a control unit configured to record the combined image generated by the combining unit on a recording medium, and configured to: if the combined image, generated by the combining unit, is generated by combining a plurality of captured images, and: if the combined image satisfies a predetermined condition, attach first type data to the recorded combined image, and if the combined image does not satisfy the predetermined condition, attach second type data to the recorded combined image. If the combined image, generated by the combining unit, is generated by combining a plurality of captured images recorded on the recording medium, the second type data is attached regardless of whether the predetermined condition is satisfied.

  • Patent number: 9538097
    Abstract: An image pickup apparatus that performs control according to an azimuth detected during photographing, such that a user can enjoy excellent viewing of the synthesized image. A digital camera includes a main camera for obtaining a first image, and an in-camera for obtaining a second image when the first image is obtained. An azimuth sensor and a system controller generate first azimuth information by detecting a photographing direction of the main camera, and generate second azimuth information by detecting a photographing direction of the in-camera. The system controller records the first azimuth information in association with the first image, and the second azimuth information in association with the second image, in a recording medium.

  • Patent number: 8855465
    Abstract: A moving image recording apparatus includes: a reading unit configured to read at least part of a file allocation table (FAT) from a recording medium, which is attached to an attachment unit and whose files are managed by a FAT file system, onto a storage unit; a recording medium determination unit configured to determine whether the recording medium attached to the attachment unit is a write-once recording medium; a moving image recordable time calculation unit configured to calculate, if the recording medium determination unit determines that the recording medium is a write-once recording medium, moving image recordable time based on the number of free clusters in the FAT read onto the storage unit by the reading unit; and a moving image recordable time display unit configured to display the moving image recordable time calculated by the moving image recordable time calculation unit on a display unit.
