Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes an imaging apparatus that irradiates reference light in a predetermined wavelength band to a subject and captures reflection of the reference light from the subject to acquire data of captured images including a polarized image in multiple bearings (S30). Based on the polarized image, the imaging apparatus acquires a polarization degree image representing a distribution of polarization degrees (S32). The imaging apparatus extracts a region whose polarization degree falls within a predetermined range of polarization degrees as an image of the subject having a predetermined material (S34). The imaging apparatus performs relevant processing on the subject image to generate output data and outputs the generated data (S36).

Abstract: An image pickup apparatus includes an image data production unit which produces data of images of a plurality of resolutions, from an image frame obtained by picking up an image of a target object as a moving picture for each pixel string which configures a row, and an image sending unit which extracts, from the data of the images of the plurality of resolutions, pixel strings of a region requested from a host terminal and connect the extracted pixel strings for each number of pixels determined in accordance with a given rule to produce a stream and then transmit the stream to the host terminal. The image sending unit adjusts a connection pixel number of data of an image of a particular resolution such that, where N is an integer, data for 1/(N+1) frame are transmitted with respect to one frame of data of an image of the other resolution.

Abstract: An image generating apparatus 10 acquires information associated with a motion of a head of a user wearing a head-mounted display 100. For a period of time for which the head is stopped, the image generating apparatus 10 generates a display image 70 with a standard resolution, and transmits the display image 70 to the head-mounted display 100, so that display images 71 having the same resolution are displayed. For a period of time for which the head is moved, the image generating apparatus 10 generates display images 72 each having the reduced resolution, and the head-mounted display 100 generates display images 73 obtained by enlarging the display images 72.

Abstract: A captured image acquisition section 50 acquires, from an imaging apparatus 12, data of a polarized image obtained by capturing a target object and stores the data into an image data storage section 52. A normal line distribution acquisition section 362 of a region segmentation section 310 acquires a distribution of normal line vectors of a subject surface using the polarized image. A region decision section 312 evaluates the distribution of normal line vectors with a predetermined criterion indicating stability such as a dispersion and determines a region in which the stability is high as a region of a figure of a subject to segment the image. An output data generation section 56 carries out various processes using a result of the segmentation to generate output data.

Abstract: An imaging device includes a filter, imaging elements, and an image processing section. The filter has a plurality of regions transmitting different light components. The imaging elements detect a luminance distribution of polarization components in a plurality of directions of light transmitted by the filter. The image processing section analyzes the detected luminance distribution based on correlation between the components, thereby generating a plurality of items of information about a subject.

Abstract: A photographed image acquiring section 50 acquires data associated with a polarized image obtained through photographing of an object from an imaging apparatus 12, and stores the data in an image data storing section 52. A polarized image processing section 58 of a real space recognizing section 54 obtains distributions of degrees of polarization or normal vectors in an image plane by using the polarized image. A shadow area specifying section 60 specifies an area having peculiarity in the distribution of the degrees of polarization or the normal vectors in an image representing one surface of a subject as an area of a shadow. A state specifying section 62 acquires information associated with a state of a real object or the shadow in the real space on the basis of the area of the image of the shadow. An output data generating section 56 executes information processing by using state information in the real space, and outputs a processing result.

A region extraction section 60 of a target object recognition section 54 extracts a region in which a figure of the target object is included in the polarized image. A normal line distribution acquisition section 62 acquires a distribution of normal line vectors on a target object surface in regard to the extracted region. A model adjustment section 66 adjusts a three-dimensional model of the target object stored in a model data storage section 64 in a virtual three-dimensional space such that the three-dimensional model conforms to the distribution of the normal line vectors acquired from the polarized image to specify a state of the target object.

Abstract: A captured image acquisition section 50 acquires from an imaging apparatus 12 data of a polarized image captured of a target object and stores the image data into an image data storage section 52. A region division section 58 in a normal line information acquisition section 54 divides a plane of the image into regions according to a predetermined criterion such as a polarization degree or luminance. A normal line calculation section 60 obtains a distribution of normal lines of each region by applying either a specular reflection model or a diffuse reflection model thereto. An integration section 62 integrates the distributions of normal lines of the regions into a normal line distribution of the entire image. An output data generation section 56 performs information processing using the normal line distribution and outputs the result of the processing.
