Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A plurality of captured images having a successive relation is displayed on a display screen with the successive relation being maintained. Then, when the plurality of captured images include a plurality of first captured images acquired by a plurality of successive photographing operations and a second captured image acquired by an individual photographing operation different from the plurality of successive photographing operations, the second captured image is displayed such that it is differentiated from the plurality of first captured images by, for example, the background area of the second captured image being represented in a display form different from that of another area.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A display control apparatus comprising: a processor which causes a plurality of captured images acquired by photographing pages of a book to be arranged and displayed on a display screen with a sequential relation of the pages being maintained, wherein the processor, when the plurality of captured images include a plurality of first captured images acquired by performing a first series photographing process in which the pages of the book are respectively photographed in series in conjunction with turning operations of a device for turning the pages of the book, and a second captured image acquired by photographing any page of the pages of the book separately from the first series photographing process, causes the second captured image to be displayed on the display screen such that the second captured image is differentiated from the plurality of first captured images. 2. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of captured images is a page image acquired by pages of the book being photographed for each page. 3. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second captured image is an image with which one of the plurality of first captured images acquired by the first series photographing process has been replaced. 4. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second captured image is an image which complements a missing captured image in the plurality of first captured images acquired by the first series photographing process. 5. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor causes the second captured image to be displayed in a manner to be differentiated from the plurality of first captured images, by causing a specific area corresponding to the second captured image on the display screen to be represented in a display form different from a display form of an area other than the specific area. 6. The display control apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the specific area is a background area of the second captured image. 7. The display control apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the processor causes the second captured image to be displayed in a manner to be differentiated from the plurality of first captured images, by causing the specific area to be represented with a color different from a color of the area other than the specific area. 8. A display control method comprising: arranging and displaying, on a display screen, a plurality of captured images acquired by photographing pages of a book with a sequential relation of the pages being maintained; and displaying, when the plurality of captured images include a plurality of first captured images acquired by performing a first series photographing process in which the pages of the book are respectively photographed in series in conjunction with turning operations of a device for turning the pages of the book, and a second captured image acquired by photographing any page of the pages of the book separately from the first series photographing process, the second captured image on the display screen such that the second captured image is differentiated from the plurality of first captured images. 9. The display control method according to claim 8 , wherein the second captured image is an image with which one of the plurality of first captured images acquired by the first series photographing process has been replaced. 10. The display control method according to claim 8 , wherein the second captured image is an image which complements a missing captured image in the plurality of first captured images acquired by the first series photographing process. 11. The display control method according to claim 8 , wherein the displaying of the second captured image in a differentiated state includes displaying the second captured image in a manner to differentiate the second captured image from the plurality of first captured images, by representing a specific area corresponding to the second captured image on the display screen in a display form different from a display form of an area other than the specific area. 12. The display control method according to claim 11 , wherein the specific area is a background area of the second captured image. 13. The display control method according to claim 11 , wherein the displaying of the second captured image in a differentiated state includes displaying the second captured image in a manner to differentiate the second captured image from the plurality of first captured images, by representing the specific area with a color different from a color of the area other than the specific area. 14. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon a program that is executable by a computer to actualize functions comprising: arranging and displaying, on a display screen, a plurality of captured images acquired by photographing pages of a book with a sequential relation of the pages being maintained; and displaying, when the plurality of captured images include a plurality of first captured images acquired by performing a first series photographing process in which the pages of the book are respectively photographed in series in conjunction with turning operations of a device for turning the pages of the book, and a second captured image acquired by photographing any page of the pages of the book separately from the first series photographing process, the second captured image on the display screen such that the second captured image is differentiated from the plurality of first captured images. 15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 14 , wherein the second captured image is an image with which one of the plurality of captured images acquired by the first series photographing process has been replaced. 16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 14 , wherein the second captured image is an image which complements a missing captured image in the plurality of captured images acquired by the first series photographing process. 17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 14 , wherein the displaying of the second captured image in a differentiated state includes displaying the second captured image in a manner to differentiate the second captured image from the plurality of first captured images, by representing a specific area corresponding to the second captured image on the display screen in a display form different from a display form of an area other than the specific area. 18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 17 , wherein the specific area is a background area of the second captured image. 19. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium according to claim 18 , wherein the displaying of the second captured image in a differentiated state includes displaying the second captured image in a manner to differentiate the second captured image from the plurality of first captured images, by representing the specific area with a color different from a color of the area other than the specific area.
