Information recording/reproducing apparatus
View Patent ↗Module compressing/encoding plural images for recording, or an image recording apparatus or image recording system including the module. At least two first and second image input module types capture an image of frames from a video signal source, and convert into digital image data for output; an image input arbitration module arbitrates to place digital image data provided by the first type before digital image data provided by the second type. The first type image input module is provided with a real-time image. The apparatus or system further includes: a memory module temporarily storing the real-time image by a processing time for the arbitration module to process digital image data provided by the second type of image input module, an image encoding module compressing and encoding the digital image data, and changing a processing speed to perform a process of compression and encoding more in real time.
1. An image processing apparatus comprising:
an input unit which is configured to receive moving images captured with user operations;
a receiving unit which is configured to receive pieces of current position information of the image processing apparatus;
a recording unit which is configured to record the moving images in correlation with the pieces of position information, each piece of position information corresponding to a position where one of the moving images was captured;
a display unit which is configured to display at least one thumbnail image of the moving images recorded by the recording unit on a map with route information, the at least one thumbnail image being displayed in relation to a position on the map corresponding to the piece of position information which correlates to the moving images corresponding to the at least one thumbnail image; and
a wireless communication unit which is configured to transfer the moving images and an image of the map on which the at least one thumbnail image and the route information are displayed to a network server.
2. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the wireless communication unit transfers the moving images and the image of the map automatically, when the image processing apparatus is in a wireless LAN environment.
3. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an imaging unit which is configured to capture the moving images.
4. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, when several images among the moving images correspond to the same piece of position information, the display unit is configured to display one thumbnail image of a selected one of the several images.
5. The image processing apparatus according to claim 4 ,
wherein the selected image is a first captured image of the several images.
