Imaging System and Method for Setting Conditions of Imaging System 【0001】 The present invention relates to an imaging system and a method for setting conditions of the imaging system. 【0002】 Patent Document 1 describes that from a table representing candidates for an application recipe rearranged according to user preference information, the user selects one of the candidates and applies the relative setting value of the application recipe to the imaging device. 【0003】 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2023-13061 【0004】 In Patent Document 1, as candidates for the application recipe, shooting recipes such as "portrait shooting of people" and "how to photograph children" are displayed as tabular character information. Therefore, as a user, it is necessary to select a shooting recipe that matches the imaging conditions or image processing conditions for the subject from the character information shooting recipes. Therefore, when there is no shooting recipe that matches the imaging conditions or image processing conditions of the subject, or when the user himself / herself cannot come up with a shooting recipe that matches the imaging conditions of the subject, etc., it may not be possible to set the imaging conditions or image processing conditions that match the subject. 【0005】 An object of the present invention is to provide an imaging system and a method for setting conditions of the imaging system that can set imaging conditions or image processing conditions for imaging with a taste that matches the user's image. 【0006】 The imaging system of the present invention includes a processor. The processor receives the selection of the first image, sets at least a part or all of the first imaging conditions related to the first image as the second imaging conditions, or sets at least a part or all of the first image processing conditions related to the first image as the second image processing conditions, receives an imaging instruction under the second imaging conditions, or applies image processing under the second image processing conditions. 【0007】The processor preferably sets the second imaging conditions by deleting imaging conditions from the first imaging conditions that are not included in the second imaging conditions, or by adding imaging conditions from the first imaging conditions that are missing from the second imaging conditions, or by deleting image processing conditions from the first image processing conditions that are not included in the second image processing conditions, or by adding image processing conditions from the first image processing conditions that are missing from the second image processing conditions. The items of the second imaging conditions or the items of the second image processing conditions are predetermined. 【0008】 Preferably, the processor adds imaging conditions for any missing items in the second imaging conditions by adding imaging conditions obtained from the estimation process based on the first image as the second imaging conditions, and adds image processing conditions for any missing items in the second image processing conditions by adding image processing conditions obtained from the estimation process based on the first image as the second image processing conditions. 【0009】 Preferably, the processor adds imaging conditions for any missing items in the second imaging conditions by adding imaging conditions associated with images obtained through similar image search of the first image as the second imaging conditions, and adds image processing conditions for any missing items in the second image processing conditions by adding image processing conditions associated with images obtained through similar image search of the first image as the second image processing conditions. 【0010】 It is preferable to accept the selection of items to be used as items for the second imaging conditions, or to accept the selection of items to be used as items for the second image processing conditions, and to set the first imaging condition of the item selected as an item for the second imaging conditions as the second imaging condition, or to set the first image processing condition of the item selected as an item for the second imaging conditions as the second image processing condition. 【0011】Preferably, the system includes an information processing device having a first processor that accepts the selection of a first image, a server having a second processor that stores the first image, and an imaging device having a third processor, wherein the second processor transmits first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions to the imaging device in response to an instruction from the information processing device to select a first image, and the third processor receives first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions from the second processor. 【0012】 Preferably, the server is a first server that stores a first image to which candidate imaging conditions for the first imaging conditions or candidate image processing conditions for the first image processing conditions are associated, or a second server that stores a first image to which candidate imaging conditions for the first imaging conditions or candidate image processing conditions for the first image processing conditions are not associated. 【0013】 The imaging device is equipped with a third processor, which preferably accepts the selection of a first image and sets the imaging conditions associated with the first image as second imaging conditions, or sets the image processing conditions associated with the first image as second image processing conditions. 【0014】 The imaging device includes a third processor, and it is preferable that the third processor acquires first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions obtained by capturing a two-dimensional code associated with the first image, instead of acquiring first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions based on acceptance of the selection of a first image. 【0015】 The imaging device includes a third processor, and it is preferable that the third processor acquires the first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions used for capturing or processing the first image in the imaging device, instead of acquiring the first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions based on the acceptance of the selection of the first image. 【0016】When the processor receives the selection of multiple first images, it is preferable that the imaging conditions that are common to the imaging conditions associated with each of the multiple first images be designated as the first imaging conditions, and the image processing conditions that are common to the image processing conditions associated with each of the multiple first images be designated as the first image processing conditions. 【0017】 When the processor accepts the selection of multiple third images instead of the first image, it is preferable that the imaging conditions common to the imaging conditions associated with the multiple third images are excluded from the first imaging conditions, and the image processing conditions common to the image processing conditions associated with each of the multiple third images are excluded from the first image processing conditions. 【0018】 The present invention relates to a method for setting conditions for an imaging system equipped with a processor, wherein the processor includes the steps of: receiving the selection of a first image; setting at least part or all of the first imaging conditions related to the first image as second imaging conditions, or setting at least part or all of the first image processing conditions related to the first image as second image processing conditions; and receiving an imaging instruction with the second imaging conditions, or applying image processing with the second image processing conditions. 【0019】 According to the present invention, imaging conditions or image processing conditions can be set to capture images in a style that matches the user's image. 【0020】This is a schematic diagram of the imaging system. This is a plan view of the information processing device that displays the selection screen for the first image.

(A) is an explanatory diagram showing the user's selection of second imaging conditions, and (B) is an explanatory diagram showing the user's selection of second image processing conditions. This is a flowchart showing the sequence of steps for setting the conditions of an imaging system. This is an image of the display screen of an imaging device that displays a selection screen for selecting the first image. This is a schematic diagram of a printed sheet of paper on which the first image and a two-dimensional code are printed. This is an explanatory diagram showing that the first imaging conditions or the second image processing conditions are obtained by capturing the first image. This is a plan view of an information processing device that displays a selection screen for selecting multiple first images. This is a plan view of an information processing device that displays a selection screen for selecting multiple third images. 【0021】 As shown in Figure 1, in the imaging system 10, when a user images a subject with the imaging device 12, the user selects an image that they believe represents the imaging conditions of the subject as the first image, and then uses the first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions of the selected first image to perform imaging and image processing. As a result, the imaging system 10 can set imaging conditions or image processing conditions to capture images in a style that matches the user's image, and can automatically and easily set imaging conditions without requiring detailed settings for the imaging conditions or image processing conditions. 【0022】The imaging system 10 comprises an information processing device 11, an imaging device 12, and a server 13. Communication is possible between the information processing device 11 and the server 13 via the network NT, and also between the imaging device 12 and the server 13. The server 13 stores the first image. Communication between the information processing device 11 and the imaging device 12 may also be enabled. The information processing device 11 is, for example, a smartphone or a PC, and the imaging device 12 is, for example, a digital camera. 【0023】 The information processing device 11 includes a first processor 20 that performs various controls and a touch-operable display 21. Before the user captures an image of a subject with the imaging device 12, the user uses the information processing device 11 to set the imaging conditions or image processing conditions of the imaging device 12. The imaging device 12 to be used is pre-registered with the server 13 via the information processing device 11, etc. 【0024】 Specifically, the information processing device 11 accesses the server 13 and displays the first image selection screen on the display 21. As shown in Figure 2, the selection screen displays multiple images P arranged vertically and horizontally, allowing the user to select a first image by touch operation. The user selects a first image from the images P on the selection screen that matches the imaging conditions or image processing conditions of the subject. The outer frame of the image selected as the first image is changed to a double line display. The first processor 20 accepts the selection of the first image. Accordingly, the first processor 20 sends a selection instruction to the server 13. 【0025】Server 13 has a second processor 24 (see Figure 1) and stores the first image. The second processor 24 responds to an instruction from the information processing device 11 to select the first image and transmits the first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions related to the first image to the imaging device 12. The destination imaging device 12 is pre-registered in Server 13. Server 13 is either a first server 13a that stores an image P associated with candidate imaging conditions for the first imaging conditions or candidate image processing conditions for the first image processing conditions, as shown in Figure 3(A), or a second server 13b that stores a first image that is not associated with candidate imaging conditions for the first imaging conditions or candidate imaging conditions for the first image processing conditions, as shown in Figure 3(B). The server may also be a server that stores both a first image to which candidate imaging conditions for the first imaging conditions or candidate image processing conditions for the first image processing conditions are associated, and a first image to which candidate imaging conditions for the first imaging conditions or candidate image processing conditions are not associated. 【0026】 In the case of the first server 13a, the first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions associated with the first image are transmitted to the imaging device 12. On the other hand, in the case of the second server 13b, the first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions are generated from the first image, and the generated first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions are transmitted to the imaging device 12. In this case, the first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions may be generated from the first image by estimation processing, or imaging conditions or image processing conditions associated with images similar to the first image may be used as the first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions by similar image search. It is preferable that the estimation processing is the same as the estimation processing performed by the imaging device 12, as will be described later. Furthermore, it is preferable that the similar image search extracts images in which the difference between the feature quantities of the first image and the similar image is within the similar range. 【0027】As shown in Figure 4, the imaging conditions include EXIF information, and each item is, for example, focal length, focus position, aperture (f-number), depth of field, shutter speed, ISO sensitivity, white balance, focus position, frame rate, and lens equipment used (telephoto lens, focus lens). The image processing conditions include, for example, brightness adjustment, contrast adjustment, digital gain processing, and color tone adjustment. It is preferable to include conditions that can reproduce imaging conditions that could not be used by combining the processing of each item in the image processing conditions (for example, conditions that reproduce photographic film, conditions when using a desired lens, etc.). In the following explanation, each item of the imaging conditions is represented as A + "number (items are distinguished by numbers)", and each item of the image processing conditions is represented as B + "(items are distinguished by numbers)". 【0028】 The imaging device 12 has a third processor 26 (see Figure 1) that performs various processing. The third processor 26 receives first imaging conditions or second image processing conditions from the second processor 24 of the server 13. The third processor 26 sets at least part or all of the first imaging conditions as second imaging conditions, or sets at least part or all of the first image processing conditions as second image processing conditions. The third processor 26 also accepts an imaging instruction based on the second imaging conditions, or applies image processing based on the second image processing conditions. 【0029】Specifically, when the third processor 26 sets at least part or all of the first imaging conditions as the second imaging conditions, it performs the process of deleting imaging conditions from the first imaging conditions that are not included in the items of the second imaging conditions, or the process of adding imaging conditions from the first imaging conditions that are missing from the items of the second imaging conditions. Furthermore, when setting at least part or all of the first image processing conditions as the second image processing conditions, it performs the process of deleting image processing conditions from the first image processing conditions that are not included in the items of the second image processing conditions, or the process of adding image processing conditions from the first image processing conditions that are missing from the items of the second image processing conditions. In the above cases, it is preferable that the items of the second imaging conditions or the items of the second image processing conditions are predetermined by the user of the imaging device 12. 【0030】 For example, as shown in Figure 5(A), if the items for the first imaging condition are items A1, A2, and A3, and the items for the second imaging condition are items A1 and A2, then the imaging condition for item A3, which is not included in the second imaging condition items, is deleted, and the first imaging conditions for items A1 and A2 are set as the second imaging condition. Also, as shown in Figure 5(B), if the items for the first image processing condition are items B1, B2, and B3, and the items for the second image processing condition are items B1 and B2, then the imaging condition for item B3, which is not included in the second image processing condition items, is deleted, and the first image processing conditions for items B1 and B2 are set as the second image processing condition. 【0031】 On the other hand, as shown in Figure 6(A), if the items for the first imaging condition are items A1, A2, and A3, and the items for the second imaging condition are items A1, A2, A3, and A4, then the imaging condition for item A4, which is missing from the second imaging condition items, is added, and the first imaging condition items A1, A2, A3, and A4 are set as items for the second imaging condition. Also, as shown in Figure 6(B), if the items for the first image condition are items B1, B2, and B3, and the items for the second image processing condition are items B1, B2, B3, and B4, then the imaging condition for item B4, which is missing from the second image processing condition items, is added, and the first imaging condition items B1, B2, B3, and B4 are set as items for the second image processing condition. 【0032】The process of adding missing imaging conditions to the second imaging conditions preferably involves adding the imaging conditions obtained from the estimation process based on the first image as the second imaging conditions. Furthermore, the process of adding missing image processing conditions to the second image processing conditions preferably involves adding the image processing conditions obtained from the estimation process based on the first image as the second image processing conditions. 【0033】 As shown in Figure 7, estimation processes include using a learning model, optical simulation using an optical computation model, or a lookup table. When using a learning model for estimation, for example, as shown in Figure 8(A), for item A4, which is missing from the second imaging conditions, the first image P1 is input to the learning model 30, and the learning model 30 outputs the imaging conditions for item A4. Also, as shown in Figure 8(B), for item B4, which is missing from the second image processing conditions, the first image P1 is input to the learning model 31, and the learning model 30 outputs the image processing conditions for item B4. 【0034】 The learning model is constructed using a mathematical model that defines the relationship between input information (images), which are prepared in advance as training data, and output conditions (at least one of imaging conditions or image processing conditions). The optical calculation simulation calculates the brightness and optical features of a standard subject based on the optical behavior and optical path of a standard subject, and is a simulation to derive at least one of the imaging conditions or image processing conditions for a standard subject. The lookup table is a pre-defined correspondence between image features and at least one of the imaging conditions or image processing conditions corresponding to those image features. Therefore, when using a lookup table, it is preferable to calculate the features of the first image from the first image. 【0035】Furthermore, the process of adding missing imaging conditions to the second imaging conditions preferably involves adding imaging conditions linked to images obtained through similar image search of the first image as the second imaging conditions. Similarly, the process of adding missing image processing conditions to the second image processing conditions preferably involves adding image processing conditions linked to images obtained through similar image search of the first image as the second image processing conditions. 【0036】 For example, as shown in Figure 9(A), for item A4, which is missing from the second imaging conditions, the first server 13a is accessed to perform a similar image search for the first image and a similar image SP similar to the first image is obtained. Then, the imaging condition for item A4 among the imaging conditions associated with the similar image SP is set as the second imaging condition. Also, as shown in Figure 9(B), for item B4, which is missing from the second image processing conditions, the first server 13a is accessed to perform a similar image search for the first image and a similar image similar to the first image is obtained. Then, the imaging condition for item B4 among the image processing conditions associated with the similar image is set as the second image processing condition. 【0037】 Furthermore, when the third processor 26 sets at least part or all of the first imaging conditions as second imaging conditions, it may accept the selection of items to be used as items for the second imaging conditions, and set the first imaging conditions of the items selected as items for the second imaging conditions as the second imaging conditions. Also, when setting at least part or all of the first image processing conditions as second image processing conditions, it may accept the selection of items to be used as items for the second image processing conditions, and set the first image processing conditions of the items selected as items for the second image processing conditions as the second image processing conditions. 【0038】For example, as shown in Figure 10(A), when setting the second imaging conditions, a selection screen for selecting items is displayed on the display 34 of the imaging device 12. The selection screen is touch-operable, and the imaging condition items A1, A2, A3, A4, and A5, along with checkboxes for each item, are displayed. The user selects items A1, A2, and A3 to be used as the items for the second imaging conditions and performs a confirmation operation. Accordingly, the first imaging conditions for items A1, A2, and A3 are set as the second imaging conditions. 【0039】 Furthermore, as shown in Figure 10(B), when setting the second image processing conditions, a selection screen for selecting items is displayed on the display 34 of the imaging device 12. The selection screen is touch-operable and displays the imaging condition items B1, B2, B3, B4, and B5, along with checkboxes for each item. The user selects items B1, B2, and B3 to be used as the items for the second image processing conditions and performs a confirmation operation. Accordingly, the first image processing conditions for items B1, B2, and B3 are set as the second image processing conditions. 【0040】 The sequence of steps in the present invention will be explained with reference to the flowchart in Figure 11. The display 21 of the information processing device 11 displays a selection screen for the user to select a first image that represents imaging conditions or image processing conditions suitable for the subject. The user touches the display 21 to select a first image from among the multiple images on the selection screen. Accordingly, the first processor 20 of the information processing device 11 accepts the selection of the first image. Subsequently, the first processor 20 sends a selection instruction to the server 13. 【0041】The second processor 24 of the server 13 responds to a selection instruction for a first image from the information processing device 11 and transmits first imaging conditions or first image processing conditions related to the first image to the imaging device 12. The third processor 26 of the imaging device 12 receives the first imaging conditions or second image processing conditions from the server 13. The third processor 26 sets at least part or all of the first imaging conditions as the second imaging conditions, or sets at least part or all of the first image processing conditions as the second image processing conditions. The third processor 26 also accepts an imaging instruction based on the second imaging conditions, or applies image processing based on the second image processing conditions. 【0042】 In the above embodiment, the information processing device 11 is used to select the first image, but the imaging device 12 may also be used to select the first image. In this case, the third processor 26 of the imaging device 12 accepts the selection of the first image and sets the imaging conditions associated with the first image as the second imaging conditions. Specifically, as shown in Figure 12, when selecting the first image, the imaging device 12 displays a selection screen for selecting the first image on the display 34. The selection screen is touch-operable, and the user switches the image display left or right by swiping, etc., to select the first image in which they believe the imaging conditions or image processing conditions that match the image of the subject are displayed. The imaging device 12 sets the imaging conditions associated with the selected first image as the second imaging conditions, or sets the imaging conditions associated with the selected first image as the second imaging conditions. 【0043】Also, in the above embodiment, the information processing apparatus 11 and the server 13 are used to obtain the first imaging condition or the first image processing condition. However, the imaging apparatus 12 may obtain the first imaging condition or the first image processing condition. For example, the third processor 26 of the imaging apparatus 12 may obtain the first imaging condition or the first image processing condition obtained by imaging a two-dimensional code related to the first image. In this case, as shown in FIG. 13, the first image P1 and the two-dimensional code 40 are printed on the printing paper 42 or the like. In order to indicate that they have been used for imaging or image processing of the first image, the two-dimensional code 40 is printed in the vicinity of the first image. Further, when the imaging apparatus 12 obtains the first imaging condition or the first image processing condition, the third processor 26 of the imaging apparatus 12 may obtain the first imaging condition or the first image processing condition used for imaging or image processing of the first image of the imaging apparatus 12 as shown in FIG. 14. The two-dimensional code is preferably a QR code (registered trademark). 【0044】 In the above embodiment, the information processing apparatus 11 accepts the selection of one first image. However, it may be configured to accept the selection of a plurality of first images. Specifically, when the first processor 20 of the information processing apparatus 11 accepts the selection of a plurality of first images, it is preferable that the imaging condition of the item common among the imaging conditions associated with the plurality of first images is set as the first imaging condition, and the image processing condition of the item common among the image processing conditions associated with the plurality of first images is set as the first image processing condition. 【0045】For example, as shown in Figure 15, when multiple images are arranged on the selection screen on the display 21 of the information processing device 11, the user selects multiple first images from among these multiple images. For the multiple images selected as first images (three images in Figure 15), the outer frame is changed to a double-line display. Accordingly, the first processor 20 transmits a selection instruction regarding the multiple first images to the server 13. The second processor 24 of the server 13 responds to the selection instruction for the first images from the information processing device 11 and sets the imaging conditions that are common to the imaging conditions associated with each of the multiple first images as the first imaging conditions, and the image processing conditions that are common to the image processing conditions associated with each of the multiple first images as the first image processing conditions. Note that the multiple first images to be selected may be images that the user considers to be showing imaging conditions or image processing conditions appropriate for the subject, or images that the user subjectively likes. 【0046】 For example, if items A1, A2, and A3 are common to multiple imaging conditions associated with each first image, the representative value (average value, etc.) of the imaging conditions for items A1, A2, and A3 among those multiple imaging conditions will be designated as the first imaging condition. Similarly, if items B1, B2, and B3 are common to multiple image processing conditions associated with each first image, the representative value (average value, etc.) of the image processing conditions for items B1, B2, and B3 among those multiple image processing conditions will be designated as the first image processing condition. 【0047】 In the above embodiment, the information processing device 11 accepts the selection of a first image, but it may also accept the selection of multiple third images that contradict the selection purpose. Specifically, when the first processor 20 of the information processing device 11 accepts the selection of multiple third images, it excludes imaging conditions that are common among the imaging conditions associated with the multiple third images from the first imaging conditions, and excludes image processing conditions that are common among the image processing conditions associated with each of the multiple third images from the first image processing conditions. 【0048】For example, as shown in FIG. 16, when a plurality of images are arranged on the selection screen of the display 21 of the information processing apparatus 11, the selection of a plurality of third images by the user is accepted from among those plurality of images. For the plurality of images (three images in FIG. 16) selected as the third images, an "x" mark is displayed. Accordingly, the first processor 20 transmits a selection instruction regarding the plurality of third images to the server 13. The second processor 24 of the server 13 responds to the selection instruction of the third images from the information processing apparatus 11, and excludes the imaging conditions of items common among the imaging conditions respectively associated with the plurality of third images from the first imaging conditions, and excludes the image processing conditions of items common among the image processing conditions respectively associated with the plurality of third images from the first image processing conditions. 【0049】 For example, when item A4 is common among the imaging conditions respectively associated with the plurality of third images, the imaging condition of item A4 among those plurality of imaging conditions is excluded from the first imaging conditions. Also, when item B4 is common among the image processing conditions respectively associated with the plurality of first images, the image processing condition of item B4 among those plurality of image processing conditions is excluded from the first image processing conditions. 【0050】 Note that, for the image associated with the imaging condition excluded from the first imaging conditions, or for the image associated with the image processing condition excluded from the first image processing conditions, it is preferable not to display it on the server 13 (the first server 13a) so that the user cannot view it after the exclusion, or to gray it out so that it can be understood that the user is not a selection target of the first image after the exclusion. 【0051】 In the present embodiment, each process is executed by an arbitrary computer. Also, an arbitrary computer may execute these processes by a processor, a program, or a combination thereof. The arbitrary computer may be a general-purpose computer, a computer for a specific purpose, a system such as a workstation, or other hardware elements capable of executing a program. 【0052】The processor may consist of one or more hardware components, and the type of hardware is not limited. For example, the processor may consist of programmable logic devices such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), MPU (Micro Processing Unit), FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), dedicated circuits for executing specific processes such as an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), a GPU (Graphic Processing Unit), or an NPU (Neural Processing Unit). The processor also has various units or means that execute the various processes in this embodiment. Furthermore, the type of hardware may be a combination of different types of hardware. When multiple hardware components are configured to execute one or more processes of a processor, these components may reside in physically separate devices or in the same device. Furthermore, in any embodiment, the order of the processes performed by the processor is not limited to the order described above and may be changed as appropriate. The hardware components are composed of electrical circuits (circuits) and the like, which are combinations of circuit elements such as semiconductor elements. 【0053】Furthermore, this embodiment may be implemented by hardware, software, firmware, microcode, or a combination thereof. The software, firmware, and microcode are composed of a program. The program may also be, for example, a group of program modules, each of which may be implemented by a processor configured to perform its respective function. The program may be program code or multiple code segments stored on one or more non-temporary computer-readable media (e.g., recording media or other storage). The program may be divided and stored on multiple non-temporary computer-readable media located on devices that are physically separated from each other. The program code or code segment may represent any combination of procedures, functions, subprograms, routines, subroutines, modules, software packages, classes, or instructions, data structures, or program statements. The program code or code segment may be connected to other code segments or hardware circuits by sending and receiving information, data, arguments, parameters, or memory contents. 【0054】 10 Imaging system 11 Information processing device 12 Imaging device 13 Server 13a First server 13b Second server 20 First processor 21 Display 24 Second processor 26 Third processor 30, 31 Learning model 34 Display 40 Two-dimensional code 42 Printed paper NT Network P Image P1 First image
