Abstract
This image is used to display information about the attitude of a device estimated using a gyro sensor, etc., and is displayed on the device itself or on an external display. Here, attitude information refers to information that represents the change in attitude due to left-right head movement called "pan" as a horizontal rotation angle, and information that represents the change in attitude due to up-down head movement called "tilt" as a vertical rotation angle. This image consists of a ring-shaped indicator and a rectangular indicator placed inside the ring. In this image, the direction that the viewpoint center (the line of sight vector representing the so-called "forward") was facing when the operation to define the reference position was performed is set to 0 degrees, the amount of change in attitude due to the horizontal rotation of the device is displayed on the ring-shaped indicator, and the amount of change in attitude due to the vertical rotation of the device is displayed on the rectangular indicator. "Image Diagram" is the image displayed when the viewpoint center is at the reference position, and both the horizontal and vertical rotation angles are 0 degrees. "Image Diagram 1 of Changed State" is the image displayed when the viewpoint center has been rotated 45 degrees horizontally and 40 degrees vertically. "Image Figure 2 showing the changed state" is an image displayed with the viewpoint center rotated 28 degrees horizontally and 16 degrees vertically. "Reference image showing the usage state" is an example of how this image can be displayed on the screen of a smartphone mounted on the camera, and it displays information about the camera's posture while the photographer moves the camera by "panning" and "tilting" to take a picture.
