IMAGE COMPOSING DEVICE

1 . An image composing device comprising:

first obtaining unit that obtains label data indicating an image of a label to be attached to a product item;

a second obtaining unit that obtains configuration data indicating a three-dimensional configuration of the product item;

a third obtaining unit that obtains background data indicating an image to be used as a background;

a generator that generates projection information for projecting the three-dimensional configuration on the background; and

a composing unit that combines the image of the label with the image of the background by using the projection information.

2 . The image composing device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a specifying unit that specifies a region to be focused within the label; and

a first determining unit that determines a position of a portion of the product item to which the label will be attached, based on the region to be focused and the projection information,

wherein the composing unit combines the image of the label attached to the determined position with the image of the background.

3 . The image composing device according to claim 1 , wherein the composing unit provides shading to the image of the label in accordance with an orientation of the product item defined by the three-dimensional configuration projected on the background.

4 . The image composing device according to claim 2 , wherein the composing unit provides shading to the image of the label in accordance with an orientation of the product item defined by the three-dimensional configuration projected on the background.

5 . The image composing device according to claim 3 , wherein the composing unit provides the shading to the image of the label by using a tone level of a portion of the image of the background on which the image of the label will be projected.

6 . The image composing device according to claim 4 , wherein the composing unit provides the shading to the image of the label by using a tone level of a portion of the image of the background on which the image of the label will be projected.

7 . The image composing device according to claim 3 , further comprising:

a second determining unit that determines a position of a light source which applies light to the product item defined by the three-dimensional configuration projected on the background,

wherein the composing unit provides the shading to the image of the label, based on the determined position of the light source.

8 . The image composing device according to claim 4 , further comprising:

a second determining unit that determines a position of a light source which applies light to the product item defined by the three-dimensional configuration projected on the background,

wherein the composing unit provides the shading to the image of the label, based on the determined position of the light source.

9 . An image composing device comprising:

first obtaining means for obtaining label data indicating an image of a label to be attached to a product item;

second obtaining means for obtaining configuration data indicating a three-dimensional configuration of the product item;

third obtaining means for obtaining background data indicating an image to be used as a background;

generating means for generating projection information for projecting the three-dimensional configuration on the background; and

composing means for combining the image of the label with the image of the background by using the projection information.
