Abstract

An example of a game apparatus includes a CPU, and in a mode of examining a flower based on an imaged image, the CPU activates two outward cameras to thereby display an imaging screen on a stereoscopic LCD and a lower LCD. In the center of an upper screen displayed on the stereoscopic LCD, a designation image for adjusting a position and a size of an object to be imaged is displayed. Also, on the upper screen, a through image imaged by the outward camera is displayed, and the designation image is displayed in front of the through image. At this time, the designation image is displayed in a complementary color of a color of the through image.

Claims (30)

1. An information processing apparatus, comprising:

a displayer;

an imager;

a display controller which displays a through image imaged by said imager on said displayer;

an index image displayer which displays a predetermined index image being an index for imaging while being superimposed on said through image, wherein

said display controller further includes a color acquirer which acquires a color of said through image, and a color setter which sets a color of said predetermined index image to a color different from the color of said through image, wherein

said color acquirer acquires the color of said through image at a position where said predetermined index image is arranged.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

said color setter sets the color of said predetermined index image to a complementary color of the color of said through image.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein

said predetermined index image is an frame-shaped line image for causing at least the size of said object to be imaged to conform to a predetermined size.

4. A non-transitory storage medium storing an information processing program of an information processing apparatus having a displayer and an imager, said information processing program causes a computer of said information processing apparatus to function as:

a display controller which displays a through image imaged by said imager on said displayer;

an index image displayer which displays a predetermined index image being an index for imaging while being superimposed on said through image, wherein

said display controller includes a color acquirer which acquires a color of said through image, and a color setter which sets a color of said predetermined index image to a color different from the color of said through image, and wherein

said color acquirer acquires the color of said through image at a position where said predetermined index image is arranged.

5. An information processing method for processing an image taken by an information processing apparatus having a computer, a displayer and an imager, the method comprising the computer:

(a) displaying a through image imaged by said imager on said displayer; and

(b) displaying a predetermined index image being an index for imaging while being superimposed on said through image, wherein

said (b) includes:

(b-1) acquiring a color of said through image, and

(b-2) setting a color of said predetermined index image to a color different from the color of said through image, and wherein

said (b-1) acquires the color of said through image at a position where said predetermined index image is arranged.

6. An information processing system, comprising:

a displayer;

an imager; and a processing system, including one or more computer processors, configured to:

display a through image imaged by said imager on said displayer; and

display a predetermined index image being an index for imaging while being superimposed on said through image, wherein

said display includes acquiring a color of said through image, and setting a color of said predetermined index image to a color different from the color of said through image, wherein

said acquiring a color acquires the color of said through image at a position where said predetermined index image is arranged.
