[0072] [Overview of shooting device]

[0073] figure 1 is a block diagram illustrating the main configuration of a photographing device to which an embodiment of the present invention has been applied.

[0074] The photographing apparatus 100 photographs a subject 11, converts an image of the subject (ie, a photographed image) into electronic data, and then performs actions such as displaying and storing the obtained image data. For example, the photographing apparatus 100 may be an electronic device such as a digital camera or a camcorder. Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described using the photographing apparatus 100 as an example of such electronic equipment, but it should be recognized that embodiments of the present invention are applicable to any type of apparatus for processing digital data. Therefore, for example, the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to any electronic equipment other than the photographing apparatus 100, su...

[0149] [Control of persons authorized to view]

[0150] Biometric data may also be associated with image data as a usage permission setting for that image data (ie, content). For example, biometric data of a user licensed to view an image (ie, a person authorized to use it) may be associated with the image data. Figure 12 is a block diagram illustrating the main configuration of the controller 111 according to another embodiment of the present invention for this case.

[0151] Such as Figure 12 As shown, the controller 111 in this case includes the following functional blocks: image data acquirer 281, biometric data acquirer 241, instruction receiver 242, biometric data distributor 282 of persons authorized to view, An image data storage unit 245 , an image data search unit 246 , and a search result display unit 247 . These functional blocks are implemented in the controller 111, for example, as a result of the CPU loading programs and data read from the ROM into the RAM ...

[0167] [Setting Control]

[0168] The image represented by the image data with assigned biometric data may be a still image or a moving image. Furthermore, for example, data other than image data such as audio data or text data may also be used. Furthermore, such data is not limited to data for content such as images or audio, and may also be device setting data or similar information, for example.

[0169] For example, camera 100 may manage setting data defining its settings by associating such data with biometric data. The photographing device 100 may then be configured such that setting data corresponding to the biometric data is read and applied or updated based on the user's biometric data.

[0170] Figure 15 is a block diagram illustrating the main configuration of the controller 111 in this case and according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0171] exist Figure 15 In the configuration device 100 shown, the controller 111 includes the following fu...

Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes: a biometric information acquirer configured to acquire a user's biometric information; an instructions receiver configured to receive instructions from the user; and an associating unit configured to associate the biometric information with information obtained on the basis of the instructions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an information processing device, method and program. More specifically, the present invention relates to an information processing device, method, and program that allow easier utilization of information. Background technique [0002] Digitization of information is progressing in recent years, and digital devices that process digital information, such as digital still cameras and digital video cameras, are becoming more popular. In many cases, such digital devices are shared by multiple users, such as a household. [0003] When a digital device is shared by multiple people, it may be difficult to classify data created by each user, or otherwise, if such data is mixed together. Therefore, the user cannot easily obtain his or her desired data. In particular, in the case of a device having a small chassis, such as a digital still camera or a digital video camera, it is difficult to provide a large-scale input interface...
