Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, since the painting style image includes oil painting style, watercolor painting style, crayon painting style... and many other painting style transformations, in order to implement such transformation processing, for example, due to the calculation and processing of 12 million pixel RGB data, it is necessary A large number of CPU-based calculations, so there will be a problem of long conversion processing time
[0010] In addition, if the conversion process takes time, it is difficult to select the most suitable converted image by trying various changes at once.

no. 1 Embodiment approach

[0057] Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described.

[0058] Figure 1A It is an external view showing the image display device 1 according to the embodiment to which the present invention is applied.

[0059] On the front of the image display device 1 , a display unit constituted by a liquid crystal display panel 3 held by a thin plate-shaped main body 2 is provided. A touch panel 5 is integrally formed on the liquid crystal display panel 3 and can be operated by touching with a finger. On the upper right side of the front surface of the main body 2, an imaging element 8A is provided. A GPS (Global Positioning System) antenna 7 is provided on the upper part of the main body, and a sensor 40A is provided on the upper left side of the front. Such as Figure 1B As shown, a memory card slot 6 is provided on the side.

[0060] figure 2 It is a block diagram showing the electrical configuration of the image display device 1 of the present embodiment. The ima...

no. 2 Embodiment approach

[0144] Figure 16 It is a system configuration diagram showing the configuration of the painting style conversion service system according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, an image display device 1 functioning as a terminal and FIG. 1 and figure 2 The first embodiment shown has the same configuration. Therefore, the image display device 1 has an information transmission and reception function.

[0145] Image display device 1 is connected to a communication service company via wireless base station 630 .

[0146] The communication service company 640 includes a system (Web server 643 ) and a mail system (mail server 642 ) for connecting to the WWW (Internet) 650 , which will be described later, in addition to a communication line processing unit 641 necessary for processing communication services. In addition, the wireless base station 630 is used as an AP (Access Point), and the image display device 1 is also equipped with a function for co...

no. 3 Embodiment approach

[0188] This embodiment and Figure 16 , Figure 17 The illustrated painting style conversion service system has the same configuration. In the second embodiment, the difference from the first embodiment is that the ROM 12 of the image display device 1 does not store a painting conversion algorithm for converting the painting style into the following painting style: , only the category and priority (1) to (12) are stored, and the category and priority are: (1) oil painting style (Oil painting), (2) thick oil painting style (Thick oil painting), (3 ) Gothic oil painting, (4) Fauvist oil painting, (5) Water color painting, (6) Gouache painting, (7) Pastel painting, (8) Color Pencil sketch, (9) Pointillism, (10) silkscreen, (11) Drawing ), (12) Air brush. On the other hand, in this third embodiment, similar to the first embodiment, in the ROM 12 of the image display device 1, painting conversion algorithms for converting each painting style (1) oil painting style to (12) spray ...

Abstract

An image processing apparatus comprises a storage configured to store original images, a display configured to display reduced images of the original images, a specifying unit configured to specify one of the reduced images displayed on the display, and a processor configured to convert the one of the reduced images specified by the specifying unit into an artwork. The processor is configured to convert the one of the reduced images into an artwork of a different tone every time the specifying unit specifies the one of the reduced images, and the display displays the artwork from the processor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image processing device and an image processing method for changing the painting style of an image. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the spread of digital cameras, photographs are generally stored as digital image data. Since photographed images captured by a digital camera can be browsed, or photographed images can be browsed by a personal computer in which image data has been loaded, the way of enjoying photographs has also changed. For example, a technology (painting transformation technology) has been proposed that, by applying image processing to image data, can transform it into a painting of a different style of painting (such as oil painting style, watercolor painting style, etc.) based on the original photograph. ) to display (for example, refer to JP-A-8-44867). [0003] The painterly conversion is a technique of converting each pixel data constituting an image such as a photograph acco...
