Abstract:
A basis image is converted into a more functional image by image synthesis technology using a number of imaging devices arranged independently of each other. A multocular imaging system is provided with a plurality of imaging parts that can be arranged independently of each other, a similar component search part operable to acquire a basis image outputted from at least one imaging part of the plurality of imaging parts and a reference image outputted from another imaging part of the plurality of imaging parts and to search a similar component included in the reference image for each of components included in the basis image, and an image synthesis part operable to perform a synthesis process on at least one component included in the basis image into a desired image with reference to the similar component extracted by the similar component search part and to output the desired image as a synthesis image.
