In-vehicle device, program, and vehicle for creating composite images
An in-vehicle device includes a first in-vehicle camera configured to capture a subject in the cabin of a vehicle to create a first captured image, a second in-vehicle camera configured to capture an outside scene to create a second captured image, an image processing unit configured to create, from the first and second captured images, a composite image in which the subject is arranged with the outside scene as a background, and a first communication unit configured to send the composite image.
1. An in-vehicle device comprising:
a first in-vehicle camera configured to capture a subject in a cabin of a vehicle to create a first captured image;
a second in-vehicle camera configured to capture an outside scene to create a second captured image; and
an image processing unit configured to create, from the first and second captured images, a composite image in which the first captured image is processed so that only the subject, which is located in the cabin of the vehicle and not part of the cabin of the vehicle, is extracted from the first captured image and the outside scene in the second captured image is superimposed thereon so that the subject is arranged with the outside scene as a background,
wherein the first captured image includes a subject image consisting of at least one of a user and a passenger located in the cabin of the vehicle.
2. The in-vehicle device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a suggestion unit configured to output information to suggest creating the composite image based on location information of the vehicle.
3. The in-vehicle device according to claim 1 , wherein the image processing unit is configured to create the composite image in response to an input instruction.
4. A non-transitory computer readable medium that stores an executable program, wherein the program, when executed, causes a mobile terminal to execute processing comprising:
receiving an instruction to cause an in-vehicle device to create, from a captured image obtained by capturing a subject in a cabin of a vehicle and a captured image obtained by capturing an outside scene, a composite image in which the subject is arranged with the outside scene as a background; and
sending the instruction to the in-vehicle device to cause the in-vehicle device to create the composite image by processing the first captured image so that only the subject, which is located in the cabin of the vehicle and not part of the cabin of the vehicle, is extracted from the first captured image and the outside scene in the second captured image is superimposed thereon,
wherein the first captured image includes a subject image consisting of at least one of a user and a passenger located in the cabin of the vehicle.
5. A non-transitory computer readable medium that stores an executable program, wherein the program, when executed, causes an in-vehicle device to execute processing comprising:
causing a first in-vehicle camera to capture an image, the first in-vehicle camera being configured to capture a subject in a cabin of a vehicle to create a first captured image;
causing a second in-vehicle to capture an image, the second in-vehicle camera being configured to capture an outside scene to create a second captured image; and
creating, from the first and second captured images, a composite image in which the first captured image is processed so that only the subject, which is located in the cabin of the vehicle and not part of the cabin of the vehicle, is extracted from the first captured image and the outside scene in the second captured image is superimposed thereon so that the subject is arranged with the outside scene as a background,
wherein the first captured image includes a subject image consisting of at least one of a user and a passenger located in the cabin of the vehicle.
6. A vehicle comprising:
the in-vehicle device according to claim 1 .
7. The in-vehicle device according to claim 1 , wherein the composite image does not include an image of the cabin of the vehicle itself.
8. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 4 , wherein the composite image does not include an image of the cabin of the vehicle itself.
9. The non-transitory computer readable medium according to claim 5 , wherein the composite image does not include an image of the cabin of the vehicle itself.
10. The in-vehicle device according to claim 1 , wherein the image processing unit is configured to modify at least one of a size of the subject image or a position of the subject image.
11. The in-vehicle device according to claim 1 , wherein the image processing unit is configured to insert at least one of a time stamp, vehicle speed information, and current location information into the composite image.
