Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and program

1. An image processing apparatus comprising:

a display configured to display an image;

circuitry configured to control:

setting a capturing mode from one of a first panorama mode, in which a full circumference panorama image is capable of being captured, and a second panorama mode, in which a panorama image is capable of being captured;

displaying a single view of a given panorama image in which an entirety of the given panorama image is displayed in one image;

detecting, in accordance with a user input with respect to the single view of the given panorama image, whether the given panorama image is captured by the first panorama mode or the second panorama mode;

displaying a projection processed image by performing a display projection process on the given panorama image, in a case the given panorama image is captured by the first panorama mode; and

displaying a processed image by performing a process other than the display projection process, in a case the given panorama image is captured by the second panorama mode.

2. The image processing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein, in the second panorama mode, image capturing is by sweep operation.

3. The image processing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the single view of the given panorama image is an image including all corresponding data of the given panorama image.

4. The image processing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the process other than the display projection process includes at least one of a scroll process or a single view display process.

5. The image processing apparatus of claim 1 ,

wherein the circuitry is configured to control displaying the projection processed image by performing the display projection process on the given panorama image, in a case the given panorama image captured by the first panorama mode has approximately a 360 degree viewing angle.

6. The image processing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is configured to control changing viewing direction of the projection processed image in response to a user input with respect to the viewing direction.

7. The image processing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is configured to control changing display magnification of the projection processed image in response to a user input with respect to the display magnification.

8. The image processing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the full circumference panorama image is a 360 degree continuous image in at least one direction.

9. The image processing apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the circuitry is configured control performing an alignment process at both ends of the full circumference panorama image.

10. An image processing method comprising:

controlling, by a processing device, displaying an image on a display; and

controlling, by the processing device:

setting a capturing mode from one of a first panorama mode, in which a full circumference panorama image is capable of being captured, and a second panorama mode, in which a panorama image is capable of being captured;

displaying a single view of a given panorama image in which an entirety of the given panorama image is displayed in one image;

detecting, in accordance with a user input with respect to the single view of the given panorama image, whether the given panorama image is captured by the first panorama mode or the second panorama mode;

displaying a projection processed image by performing a display projection process on the given panorama image, in a case the given panorama image is captured by the first panorama mode; and

displaying a processed image by performing a process other than the display projection process, in a case the given panorama image is captured by the second panorama mode.

11. The image processing method of claim 10 , wherein, in the second panorama mode, image capturing is by sweep operation.

12. The image processing method of claim 10 , wherein the single view of the given panorama image is an image including all corresponding data of the given panorama image.

13. The image processing method of claim 10 , wherein the process other than the display projection process includes at least one of a scroll process or a single view display process.

14. The image processing method of claim 10 , further comprising:

controlling, by the processing device, displaying the projection processed image by performing the display projection process on the given panorama image, in a case the given panorama image captured by the first panorama mode has approximately a 360 degree viewing angle.

15. The image processing method of claim 10 , further comprising:

controlling, by the processing device, changing viewing direction of the projection processed image in response to a user input with respect to the viewing direction.

16. The image processing method of claim 10 , further comprising:

controlling, by the processing device, changing display magnification of the projection processed image in response to a user input with respect to the display magnification.

17. The image processing method of claim 10 , wherein the full circumference panorama image is a 360 degree continuous image in at least one direction.

18. The image processing method of claim 10 , further comprising:

controlling, by the processing device, performing an alignment process at both ends of the full circumference panorama image.

19. A non-transitory storage medium configured to store a program executable by a computer, the program comprising:

controlling displaying an image on a display;

controlling setting a capturing mode from one of a first panorama mode, in which a full circumference panorama image is capable of being captured, and a second panorama mode, in which a panorama image is capable of being captured;

controlling displaying a single view of a given panorama image in which an entirety of the given panorama image is displayed in one image;

controlling detecting, in accordance with a user input with respect to the single view of the given panorama image, whether the given panorama image is captured by the first panorama mode or the second panorama mode;

controlling displaying a projection processed image by performing a display projection process on the given panorama image, in a case the given panorama image is captured by the first panorama mode; and

controlling displaying a processed image by performing a process other than the display projection process, in a case the given panorama image is captured by the second panorama mode.

20. The non-transitory storage medium of claim 19 , wherein, in the second panorama mode, image capturing is by sweep operation.
