摘要:
An image pickup apparatus is provided with an imaging optical system (imaging lens), an image sensor for picking up a subject image formed by the imaging optical system, and a view division optical system (first mirror) which divides a view picked up by the image sensor into an environment imaging side view and an eyeball imaging side view.

The image generation device includes distance calculation means for calculating a distance between a space model and an imaging device arrangement object model which is a model such as a vehicle having a camera mounted, according to viewpoint conversion image data generated by viewpoint conversion means, captured image data representing captured image, a space model, or mapped space data. When displaying an image viewed from an arbitrary virtual viewpoint in the 3D space, the image display format is changed according to the distance calculated by the distance calculation means. When displaying a monitoring object such as a vicinity of a vehicle, a shop, a house or a city as an image viewed from an arbitrary virtual viewpoint in the 3D space, it is possible to display the monitoring object in such a manner that the relationship between the vehicle and the image of the monitoring object can be understood intuitionally.

A calibration pattern unit which obtains correction information of an imaging system by imaging at the imaging system is formed by combining a plurality of three-dimensionally arranged planes. The calibration pattern unit comprises supporting members each of which has a predetermined surface corresponding to one of the planes, and a calibration pattern in which a predetermined pattern is formed on the predetermined surface of the supporting member. The supporting member can selectively set the calibration pattern unit to a first form for photographing when the correction information is obtained, and a second form for other purposes.

An image generation method for generating a viewpoint-modified image is carried out based on camera information sensed by one or a plurality of image sensing unit sensing an image around an image sensing unit-disposed object. The image generation method comprises displaying an image sensing unit-disposed object model on the viewpoint-modified image, detecting the change of the movable member of the image sensing unit-disposed object and transforming/displaying the relevant part of the image sensing unit-disposed object model in the viewpoint-modified image. The image generation method can also comprise transforming/displaying the virtual viewpoint position of the viewpoint-modified image, according to the amount of change of the movable member of the image sensing unit-disposed object.
摘要:
This stereo camera system is constituted of a stereo optical module which acquires a stereo image, a central control unit which evaluates an object as a target based on the stereo image acquired by the stereo optical module, and a communication line through which stereo image data output from the stereo optical module is input to the central control unit. Further, in this stereo camera system, an image output processing circuit which performs predetermined image processing with respect to the stereo image acquired by the stereo optical module is provided in the stereo optical module, whereby this image output processing circuit performs a correction arithmetic operation which corrects unbalance at the time of capturing the stereo image.

A user activity support agent in a user support apparatus includes a target detection evaluation module configured to detect demand, desire, and/or instruction of the user in the form of a target based on a user's activity state and/or an environment situation detected by a sensor group, and to ask the user whether or not the target is desired by the user via a user information providing device to evaluate the user's reaction to the information, and an activity plan evaluation module configured to plan the detected target in such a manner as to realize the target by the user's activity group, and to provide the user with information suggesting the activity group via the user information providing device to perform monitoring and/or evaluation with respect to the user's-reaction to the information from the user's activity state and/or the environment situation.
摘要:
A stereo camera supporting apparatus of the present invention comprises a joining member constituted in such a manner as to support a stereo camera on a vehicle, and a control device which controls posture or position of the stereo camera supported on the vehicle by the joining member. The control device controls the posture or position of the stereo camera with respect to video obtained by the stereo camera in such a manner that a contour portion present in the highest level position in a contour of a noted subject in the video is positioned in a frame upper end of the video or its vicinity irrespective of a change of the posture or position of the vehicle.
