    摘要: A system is provided for obtaining parameters about the position and orientation of a camera, where the camera has a fixed position and orientation, by using the image coordinates and world coordinates of markers included in an image photographed by the camera. This system uses a live-image display mode for successively obtaining images input to the camera and a still-image display mode for obtaining an image input to the camera at predetermined time. The markers can be extracted by using the image obtained in either mode. The system can select either automatic-extraction mode or manual-extraction mode for extracting the marker in live images, so that the markers can be extracted with a high degree of accuracy under all conditions to obtain the position and orientation parameters of the camera.

    摘要: A position and an orientation of an image capturing device or an object to which an inclination sensor is mounted are obtained without performing iterative calculation. A position and orientation measuring method includes the steps of: inputting a measured inclination value of an inclination sensor mounted to one of an object and an image capturing device; inputting a captured image from the image capturing device; detecting an index on the object from the captured image; and calculating a position and an orientation of one of the object and the image capturing device to which the inclination sensor is mounted on the basis of the measured inclination value, an image coordinate of the detected index, and already-known positional information on the detected index without performing iterative calculation.

    摘要: A position and orientation determination apparatus for identifying a parameter indicating the position and orientation of image sensing apparatus which performs image sensing on actual space where plural feature points exist in already-known positions. In the position and orientation determination apparatus, the position and orientation of the image sensing apparatus can be measured by a method other than utilization of video image obtained by image sensing, and a parameter indicating the position and orientation of the image sensing apparatus is obtained. Then, the parameter is corrected based on the plural feature points in the video image of actual space obtained by image sensing by the image sensing apparatus, and a parameter indicating the position and orientation of the image sensing apparatus is identified. Upon correction of the parameter, first, the parameter is corrected by a general method using the feature points, and then correction is performed by rotation about a visual axis, thereby the position and orientation of the image sensing apparatus can be detected with high accuracy.

    摘要: In an information processing method, an orientation sensor is mounted on a targeted object to be measured, and bird's-eye view cameras for capturing images of the targeted object are fixedly installed. From the images captured by the bird's-eye view cameras, an index detecting unit detects indices mounted on the orientation sensor. A measured orientation value from the orientation sensor is input to an orientation predicting unit, and the orientation predicting unit predicts the present orientation of the targeted object based on an azimuth-drift-error correction value. A position-orientation calculating unit uses the image coordinates of the detected indices to calculate the position of the imaging device and an update value of the azimuth-drift-error correction value, which are unknown parameters. From the obtained parameters, the position-orientation calculating unit finds and outputs the position and orientation of the targeted object.

    摘要: A game apparatus allows a virtual object to act in a mixed reality space as if it had its own will. A player can play a game with the virtual object. Rules for controlling the action patterns of the virtual object on the basis of the objective of the game, and the relative positional relationship between the virtual object and the real object is pre-stored. The next action pattern of the virtual object is determined based on an operator command, the stored rule(s), a simulation progress status, and geometric information of a real object(s).
