Problems solved by technology

However, it may not be possible to create or extract feature information from the image obtained in the imaging process due to the imaging environment such as brightness or the imaging state such as hand tremor.
Therefore, even when an image is obtained by performing imaging processing, it is still impossible to create or extract a characteristic image from the image, so that characteristic information cannot be provided to the image and stored, and the imaging processing of the obtained image becomes Useless action

no. 1 Embodiment approach

[0046] figure 1 It is a block diagram of the digital camera 1 commonly used in each embodiment of the present invention. The digital camera 1 has an AF function (automatic focus function), including a focus lens 2, a zoom lens 3, a CCD 4, a CDS / AD module 5, a TG (Timing Generator) 6, a CCD data preprocessing module 7, and a color processing (CP) module 8. JPEG encoder 9, DRAM 10, built-in flash memory 11, RAM 12, CPU 13, display unit 14, key module 15, card interface 16, motor drive module 17, and input / output interface 19. At the card interface 16, there is connected a memory card 18 that is detachably mounted on the card slot on the camera body not shown in the figure, and at the input and output interface 19, other digital cameras, personal computers, etc. are connected. device.

[0047] The focus lens 2 and the zoom lens 3 are respectively composed of lens groups not shown in the figure. The motor driving module 17 is composed of the following: drive the focus motor 17...

no. 2 Embodiment approach

[0093] Figure 8 It is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the imaging mode processing in the second embodiment of the present invention. As the shooting mode, when the shooting omission prevention mode or the normal mode is set, the CPU 13 operates according to the above-mentioned program, and executes processing as shown in this flowchart. That is, the panorama image of the image data of one frame (screen) acquired from CCD4 and memorize|stored in DRAM10 is displayed on the display part 14 (step S401). Next, it is judged whether the shutter key is operated (step S402 ), and if the shutter key is operated, the photographing process is executed (step S403 ), and the image data compressed by JPEG is stored in the memory card 18 .

[0094] In addition, a face image extraction process is executed to extract a face image from a photographed image which is image data recorded in the memory card 18 (step S404). In addition, it is judged whether or not a face image has ...

Abstract

When a shutter key is operated, a process proceeds from step S103 to step S104, at which characteristic data is acquired. A determination is made as to whether the characteristic data has been acquired at step S104 (step S105), and face image shooting processing is executed on condition that the characteristic data has been acquired (step S109). File generation processing is executed at step S114, at which a format of a face registration file is generated and the characteristic data and image data are written into the. format of this face registration file, thereby generating a single face registration file.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an imaging device having a function of obtaining feature information of an image, a program used in the imaging device, and an imaging control method. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, as an imaging device having a function of obtaining feature information of an image, for example, a type described in Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication: JP 2005-86516 is known. The imaging device responds to the operation of the shutter key, performs photographic processing, and obtains an image. Next, a face included in the captured image is detected using a face recognition mechanism, feature information capable of identifying a person based on the detected face is created, and the feature information is provided to the image and stored. Thus, even if the image is not displayed, individuals included in the image can be specified based on the feature information. [0003] In this way, in the conventional imaging device...
