Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An image processing apparatus includes: a front-most image information storage unit configured to store information relating to a front-most image that is one image of a plurality of compositing target images serving as compositing targets of an imaged image making up an imaged moving picture; a transformation information storage unit configured to store transformation information used for transforming another compositing target image of the plurality of compositing target images with the front-most image as a reference; an image transforming unit configured to transform the plurality of compositing target images sequentially toward the front-most image from the compositing target image positioned at the forefront or last of the temporal axis based on the transformation information; an image compositing unit configured to overwrite-composite the transformed compositing target images sequentially to generate a composited image; and a display control unit configured to display the composited image sequentially.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An image processing apparatus comprising: circuitry configured to identify one image as a front-most image among plural composite target images based on an object within the one image, generate a first composite image in which each composite target image captured prior to the identified front-most image is sequentially overlaid, generate a second composite image in which each composite target image captured after the identified front-most image is seque…
