Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide an image acquisition device, an image acquisition method, a program, and a recording medium for appropriately acquiring a second image based on a first image.
An image acquisition device for acquiring a second image based on a first image includes a processor, in which the processor is configured to execute a process of acquiring first information related to a feature of an image, a process of acquiring second information based on the first information and the first image, and a process of acquiring the second image based on the second information.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . An image acquisition device for acquiring a second image based on a first image, the image acquisition device comprising:
a processor, wherein the processor is configured to execute: a process of acquiring first information related to a feature of an image; a process of acquiring second information based on the first information and the first image; and a process of acquiring the second image based on the second information.

2 . The image acquisition device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the second information is information for determining a configuration of the second image.

3 . The image acquisition device according to claim 2 ,
wherein the second information includes skeleton information of a target object included in the second image, composition of the second image, or an image acquisition condition based on information related to an atmosphere of the second image.

4 . The image acquisition device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor is configured to, in the process of acquiring the second image, acquire the second image based on the second information and the first image.

5 . The image acquisition device according to claim 4 ,
wherein the processor is configured to, in the process of acquiring the second image, acquire the second image from the first image based on the second information.

6 . The image acquisition device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first information is a reference image including the feature of the image.

7 . The image acquisition device according to claim 6 ,
wherein the processor is configured to, in the process of acquiring the second information, acquire the second information corresponding to an element, which corresponds to the reference image, in the first image.

8 . The image acquisition device according to claim 6 ,
wherein the reference image is an image that has an atmosphere as a feature and that is selected by a user.

9 . The image acquisition device according to claim 6 ,
wherein the reference image is an image that is selected based on a learning model obtained by machine learning related to a user's preference.

10 . The image acquisition device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor is configured to, in the process of acquiring the second information, receive an input operation of a user and to acquire the second information corresponding to the input operation.

11 . The image acquisition device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor is configured to, in the process of acquiring the first information, analyze the first image and acquire the first information based on an analysis result of the first image.

12 . The image acquisition device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor is configured to, in the process of acquiring the second information, analyze the first image and acquire the second information based on an analysis result of the first image.

13 . The image acquisition device according to claim 6 ,
wherein the processor is configured to, in the process of acquiring the second information, analyze both the first image and the reference image and acquire the second information based on analysis results of both the first image and the reference image.

14 . The image acquisition device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor is configured to further execute a process of giving information related to at least one of the first image or the second image to the second image.

15 . The image acquisition device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor is configured to further execute a process of giving information related to at least one of the first image or the second image to the first image.

16 . The image acquisition device according to claim 14 ,
wherein the processor is configured to, in the process of giving the information related to at least one of the first image or the second image to the second image, give a thumbnail image of the first image to the second image.

17 . The image acquisition device according to claim 14 ,
wherein the processor is configured to, in the process of giving the information related to at least one of the first image or the second image to the second image, give at least one of the first information or the second information to the second image.

18 . The image acquisition device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor is configured to execute a process of setting a priority for each of the first information and the first image, and the processor is configured to, in the process of acquiring the second information, acquire the second information related to a degree of application of each of the first information and the first image in the second image according to the priority.

19 . An image acquisition method for acquiring a second image using a first image, the image acquisition method comprising:
a step of causing a processor to acquire first information related to a feature of an image; a step of causing the processor to acquire second information based on the first information and the first image; and a step of causing the processor to acquire the second image based on the second information.

20 . A computer-readable recording medium on which a program causing a computer to execute each step included in the image acquisition method according to claim 19 is recorded.
