Abstract

A display control unit of an illustrative embodiment simultaneously displays a plurality of cut-out images cut out from respective ranges of a wide-angle moving image.

Claims (29)

1. An apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to control simultaneous display of a plurality of cut-out images cut out from respective ranges of a wide-angle moving image, wherein the ranges correspond to a traveling direction of an imaging apparatus at the time the wide-angle moving image was captured, and wherein the traveling direction is determined based on sensor data detected at the time the wide-angle moving image was captured, and

wherein a layout of display areas on a display, for respective ones of the cut-out images, is based on at least a movement speed of the imaging apparatus that captured the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the ranges of the wide-angle moving image corresponding to the respective cut-out images are determined based on the layout.

2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the sensor data is gyro sensor data or acceleration sensor data.

3. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to control simultaneous display of the plurality of cut-out images and another cut-out image, wherein the another cut-out image is cut out from a another range of the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the another range corresponds to a direction opposite the translation direction of the imaging apparatus that captured the wide-angle moving image.

4. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to control simultaneous display of the plurality of cut-out images and another cut-out image, wherein the another cut-out image is cut out from a another range of the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the another range corresponds to a direction of a sound source.

5. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the layout of the display areas on the display is further based on at least one of a distance of a subject of one of the cut-out images or an amount of motion of a subject of one of the cut-out images.

6. An image processing apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to control simultaneous display of a plurality of cut-out images cut out from respective ranges of a wide-angle moving image, wherein the ranges correspond to a traveling direction of an imaging apparatus at the time the wide-angle moving image was captured, and wherein the traveling direction is determined based on sensor data detected at the time the wide-angle moving image was captured, and

wherein a layout of display areas on a display, for respective ones of the cut-out images, is based on at least a movement speed of the imaging apparatus that captured the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the ranges of the wide-angle moving image corresponding to the respective cut-out images are determined based on the layout.

7. The image processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the sensor data is gyro sensor data or acceleration sensor data.

8. The image processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to control simultaneous display of the plurality of cut-out images and another cut-out image, wherein the another cut-out image is cut out from a another range of the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the another range corresponds to a direction opposite the translation direction of the imaging apparatus that captured the wide-angle moving image.

9. The image processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the processor is configured to control simultaneous display of the plurality of cut-out images and another cut-out image, wherein the another cut-out image is cut out from a another range of the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the another range corresponds to a direction of a sound source.

10. The image processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the layout of the display areas on the display is further based on at least one of a distance of a subject of one of the cut-out images or an amount of motion of a subject of one of the cut-out images.

11. An image processing method comprising simultaneously displaying a plurality of cut-out images cut out from respective ranges of a wide-angle moving image, wherein the ranges correspond to a traveling direction of an imaging apparatus at the time the wide-angle moving image was captured, and wherein the traveling direction is determined based on sensor data detected at the time the wide-angle moving image was captured, and

wherein a layout of display areas on a display, for respective ones of the cut-out images, is based on at least a movement speed of the imaging apparatus that captured the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the ranges of the wide-angle moving image corresponding to the respective cut-out images are determined based on the layout.

12. The image processing method according to claim 11 , wherein the sensor data is gyro sensor data or acceleration sensor data.

13. The image processing method according to claim 11 , wherein simultaneously displaying comprises simultaneously displaying the plurality of cut-out images and another cut-out image, wherein the another cut-out image is cut out from a another range of the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the another range corresponds to a direction opposite the translation direction of the imaging apparatus that captured the wide-angle moving image.

14. The image processing method according to claim 11 , wherein simultaneously displaying comprises simultaneously displaying the plurality of cut-out images and another cut-out image, wherein the another cut-out image is cut out from a another range of the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the another range corresponds to a direction of a sound source.

15. The image processing method according to claim 11 , wherein the layout of the display areas on the display is further based on at least one of a distance of a subject of one of the cut-out images or an amount of motion of a subject of one of the cut-out images.

16. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon a computer-readable program to control simultaneous display of a plurality of cut-out images cut out from respective ranges of a wide-angle moving image, wherein the ranges correspond to a traveling direction of an imaging apparatus at the time the wide-angle moving image was captured, and wherein the traveling direction is determined based on sensor data detected at the time the wide-angle moving image was captured, and

wherein a layout of display areas on a display, for respective ones of the cut-out images, is based on at least a movement speed of the imaging apparatus that captured the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the ranges of the wide-angle moving image corresponding to the respective cut-out images are determined based on the layout.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 16 , wherein the sensor data is gyro sensor data or acceleration sensor data.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 16 , wherein simultaneous display comprises simultaneously displaying the plurality of cut-out images and another cut-out image, wherein the another cut-out image is cut out from a another range of the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the another range corresponds to a direction opposite the translation direction of the imaging apparatus that captured the wide-angle moving image.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 16 , wherein simultaneous display comprises simultaneously displaying the plurality of cut-out images and another cut-out image, wherein the another cut-out image is cut out from a another range of the wide-angle moving image, and wherein the another range corresponds to a direction of a sound source.
