Problems solved by technology

In the case of synthesizing the data of the captured images F1-F5 including such moving objects M1-M4 in the conventional method, a part of the moving objects M1-M4 may be cut off, and as a result, as Figure 6B As shown, the data of the panoramic image P1 may be generated with a sense of incongruity.

Abstract

An image processing apparatus 1 includes: an adjustment unit 55 that adjusts adjacent captured images in panoramic image generation processing; and a panoramic image generation unit 56 that generates data of a panoramic image by combining the adjacent captured images based on a result of this adjustment. The adjustment unit 55 includes: a characteristic point trace unit 552 that calculates vectors of a plurality of corresponding characteristic points in the adjacent captured images; and a position adjustment unit 554 that adjusts the adjacent captured images based on the vectors of the corresponding characteristic points thus calculated, by avoiding a moving object whose image is currently captured.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image processing device and an image processing method for synthesizing images. Background technique [0002] In a digital camera, a mobile phone with a camera function, etc., the limit of the shooting angle of view depends on the hardware conditions of the main body of the device, such as the focal length of the lens and the size of the imaging element. Here, a so-called panorama photography technique for obtaining a wide-angle image exceeding hardware specifications is conventionally known. [0003] In order to realize panoramic shooting, for example, the user maintains the state of pressing and operating the shutter switch, and moves the digital camera in the horizontal direction so that the digital camera is substantially fixed in the vertical direction around the body as the axis. Then, the digital camera executes a plurality of shooting processes during this period, and the data of a plurality of images (herei...
