A method is provided for modifying an image. The method comprises displaying an image, the image comprising a portion of an object; and determining if an edge of the object is in a location within the portion. The method further comprises detecting movement, in a member direction, of an operating member with respect to the edge. The method still further comprises moving, if the edge is not in the location, the object in an object direction corresponding to the detected movement; and modifying, if the edge is in the location, the image in response to the detected movement, the modified image comprising the edge in the location.

Information processing apparatus, information processing method and program

A method of processing a digital image using face detection within the image achieves one or more desired image processing parameters. A group of pixels is identified that correspond to an image of a face within the digital image. Default values are determined of one or more parameters of at least some portion of the digital image. Values are adjusted of the one or more parameters within the digitally-detected image based upon an analysis of the digital image including the image of the face and the default values.

Digital Image Processing Using Face Detection Information

A transportation vehicle with an autonomous driving control has a set-up mode, an active drive mode, a safe shutdown mode, and an emergency response mode. The active drive mode autonomously navigates along a driving route specified in the set-up mode. A driver sensing system senses a driver presence in the driver seat and a driver's physiological state. Active drive mode is not entered from set-up mode unless the driver is present in the driver seat and the physiological state matches a normal condition. While in active driving mode, an elapsed time period is measured whenever the driver presence is not detected. If the time period increases above a first threshold then a notice is given to the driver that the active drive mode may be interrupted. If the time period increases above a second threshold then the active drive mode is terminated and the safe shutdown mode is initiated. A sensed physiological state is compared to a predetermined emergency condition and if a match is found then the autonomous driving control terminates the active drive mode and the emergency response mode is initiated.

Autonomous vehicle with driver presence and physiological monitoring

A technique for processing a digital image uses face detection to achieve one or more desired image processing parameters. A group of pixels is identified that corresponds to a face image within the digital image. A skin tone is detected for the face image by determining one or more default color or tonal values, or combinations thereof, for the group of pixels. Values of one or more parameters are adjusted for the group of pixels that correspond to the face image based on the detected skin tone.

Digital image processing using face detection and skin tone information

A method of adjustable spatial and/or temporal compression of an image including a face includes identifying a group of pixels that correspond to a face within a digitally-acquired image. A first compression portion of the image including the group of pixels is determined. A second compression portion of the image other than the group of pixels is also determined. The first compression portion may be automatically compressed with higher-grade compression than the second compression portion to generate a compressed image including the face, or an option to provided the compressed image including the different grade compressions may be provided.

Digital Image Adjustable Compression and Resolution Using Face Detection Information

The CPU of a face orientation detection apparatus which acquires an image frame photographed by a camera through a cable detects the face region in the horizontal direction of the acquired image frame by executing computer programs stored on a hard disk. Moreover, the CPU detects the eye position in the vertical direction from the image frame, and detects the nose position in the horizontal direction based on the detected eye position. Furthermore, the CPU detects the orientation of the face included in the image frame, based on the detected nose position and face region.

Obtaining an image frame picked up by a camera 2 through a cable C, a CPU 10 of a computer 1 identifies an eye area in the image frame and stores a template indicating the identified area as a tracking template. Moreover, the CPU 10 identifies an eye area in an image frame to be obtained subsequently on the basis of the tracking template, and calculates a correlation value between the template of the identified area and the tracking template. Furthermore, when the calculated correlation value is larger than a threshold stored in an HD 11 in advance, the CPU 10 stores the template indicating the identified area in the RAM 12 as a tracking template, so as to update an eye area in a series of two image frames in chronological order.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately measure a relative position in a short time by using image recognition. SOLUTION: A plurality of markers 1a-1e arranged in an axial direction at the rear part of a preceding vehicle 1 are photographed by an image pickup means 2a and a frame image 2b is obtained. A marker pattern 2d is extracted from the frame image 2b by an extraction means 2c. Then, by a calculation means 2e, on the basis of the marker pattern 2d, a relative distance and a relative angle to the preceding vehicle are calculated.

Relative position measuring instrument

An alarm system includes a miniature camera ( 10 ), a loudspeaker ( 20 ), a vehicle speed sensor ( 30 ), a longitudinal G sensor ( 40 ), a lateral G sensor ( 50 ) and an on-vehicle unit ( 60 ). A CPU ( 60 a ) of the on-vehicle unit ( 60 ) executes respective programs ( 61 )-( 64 ) in a ROM ( 60 h ), thereby outputting, if a traveling distance during a period for which a driver D continues to take an abnormal behavior exceeds a predetermined value when a traveling state of an automobile is kept stable, an alarm corresponding to a magnitude of the excess over the predetermined value from the loudspeaker ( 20 ). The alarm system is thus configured and is therefore capable of exactly outputting the alarm when a danger actually rises.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device and method for efficiently detecting the direction of the face from image data acquired by imaging the face and a computer program. SOLUTION: A CPU 10 of a face direction detecting device 1 which has acquired an image frame imaged by a camera 2 through a cable C executes each computer program stored in an HD 11 to detect the area of the face in a horizontal direction in the acquired image frame, to detect the positions of the eyes in a vertical direction from the image frame, to detect the position of the nose in the horizontal direction based on the detected positions of the eyes, and to detect the direction of the face included in the image frame based on the detected position of the nose and the detected area of the face.
