Problems solved by technology

[0011] However, detailed setting of conditions for performance effects that match the temperament and preferences of each user as the subject will increase the time required for photography, which will cause a decrease in utilization efficiency when the device is used by the public.
In addition, for those who are not used to operation, because it is not clear what conditions to set to obtain an image that meets their preferences, it sometimes takes time to set and operate.
For an individual user or a group composed of multiple users, a photo sticker maker that permits multiple photography is also known for one use, but the above-mentioned tendency becomes particularly remarkable in such a device

Embodiment approach

[0172] It is a photo printing device that includes an imaging unit and a display unit, takes in images of subjects photographed by the imaging unit, edits and prints them, and includes:

[0173] an overlay processing unit that performs overlay processing for generating an overlay image of a subject, and

[0174] A unit for generating a printed image from superimposed photographic images,

[0175] Overlap photography processing unit contains:

[0176] A unit that uses the extracted color as the background, uses the image of the subject being photographed by the photography unit as the current image, and generates in real time the current extracted image in which the background part is extracted from the current image,

[0177] A unit that stores the currently extracted image at the given timing as the previously captured image in the storage unit,

[0178] means for receiving a context instruction input for indicating a context relationship between a currently extracted image...

no. 1 approach

[0370] FIG. 4 is an example of a block diagram of a photograph printing device according to this embodiment. In addition, the photo printing apparatus does not necessarily have to include all the constituent elements (each part) of FIG. 4, and some of them may be omitted.

[0371] The photographing unit 198 is used to photograph a subject, and can be realized by, for example, a CCD camera, a C-MOS camera, or a video camera, and functions as a subject image capture unit.

[0372] The operation unit 160 (pointing device, joystick, button, etc.) is used by the user to perform selection operation or editing operation of the content selection menu for editing.

[0373] The storage unit 170 (RAM) is a work area of ​​the processing unit 100 or the communication unit 196 or the like. The information storage medium 180 (computer-readable medium such as CD, DVD, HDD, and ROM) stores programs, data, and the like. In this information storage medium 180 , a program for causing a computer...

Abstract

The invention relates to a program, an information storage medium, a photographic printing device and a photographic printing method. An overlapped photographic processing unit of the photographic printing device takes the extraction color as background and the image of an object that is positively photographed by a camera portion as current image, generates a current extracted image where the background is extracted from the current image in real time, store the current extracted image as the previous intake image in a storage portion in a preset time, receives a relationship indication input indicative of the relationship between the current extracted image and the previous intake image, determines the relationship between the current extracted image and the previous intake image according to the relationship indication input, generates the instant browse image output to a display portion after real-time syntheses, determines the relationship between the current extracted image and the previous intake image according to the relationship indication input, and generates the overlapped photographic image correspondent to the instant browse image in the given time.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a program, an information storage medium, a photo printing device, and a photo printing method. Background technique [0002] A photo seal maker (an example of a photo printing device) that edits and prints an image of a user subject photographed by a photographing unit such as a CCD camera is known. [0003] In the photo sticker maker, an image of a subject is edited, and a sticker photo with a high degree of freedom different from a normal photo can be created and enjoyed. [0004] As this field, there are prior art disclosed in JP-A-10-308911 and JP-A-2005-12541. [0005] The aforementioned document discloses an editing process in which only a person is cut out from an image captured first, reduced in size, arranged at an appropriate position, and combined with an image to be captured next time. [0006] However, since the user is tired of simply combining a plurality of photographed images, it is desirable to be a...
