Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to acquire from a storing unit a target image that is obtained by photographing a target and stored in the storing unit and a processing image that is stored in the storing unit so as to be consecutive to the target image and indicates an instruction for processing on the target image, and perform control such that the processing indicated by the processing image is performed on the target image.

Claims (31)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to

acquire a target image and a processing image from a memory, wherein

the target image and the processing image are separate images stored consecutively to one another in the memory without another image intervening between the target image and the processing image in the memory,

the target image is obtained by photographing a target, and

the processing image includes a pattern recognizable by the processor as an instruction for processing to be performed on the target image and the pattern is present when the processor acquires the processing image from the memory, and

perform the processing on the target image as a result of acquiring the processing image from the memory and recognizing the pattern as the instruction, and without additional input.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processing image includes a first processing image indicating a starting position of the processing and a second processing image indicating an ending position of the processing.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the first processing image is stored prior to the target image into the memory.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processing image includes a first processing image indicating content of the processing and a second processing image indicating an instruction for execution of the processing on the target image.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processing image includes a first processing image indicating content of the processing and a second processing image indicating an instruction for execution of the processing on the target image.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the processor is configured to, in a case where a plurality of first processing images are acquired in a consecutive manner, perform control such that the content of the processing indicated by the acquired first processing images is performed on the target image in a consecutive manner.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the processor is configured to, in a case where a plurality of first processing images are acquired in a consecutive manner, perform control such that the content of the processing indicated by the acquired first processing images is performed on the target image in a consecutive manner.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processing image is selected from a photographed image or information registered in advance.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processing image is selected from a photographed image or information registered in advance.

10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the processing image is selected from a photographed image or information registered in advance.

11. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the processing image is selected from a photographed image or information registered in advance.

12. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the processing image is selected from a photographed image or information registered in advance.

13. The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the processing image is selected from a photographed image or information registered in advance.

14. The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the processing image is selected from a photographed image or information registered in advance.

15. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein in a case where an interval between photographing times of target images is equal to or longer than a predetermined time, only target images captured before the interval that is equal to or longer than the predetermined time are used as targets for the processing.

16. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein in a case where an interval between photographing times of target images is equal to or longer than a predetermined time, only target images captured before the interval that is equal to or longer than the predetermined time are used as targets for the processing.

17. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to, in a case where no processing image is acquired, perform control such that a warning is displayed.

18. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to receive registration of characteristics of the processing image from a user.

19. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to acquire a separation image for separating between target images from the memory and perform control such that the processing is performed for individual target image sets separated by the separation image.

20. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for information processing, the process comprising:

acquiring a target image and a processing image from a memory, wherein

the target image and the processing image are separate images stored consecutively to one another in the memory without another image intervening between the target image and the processing image in the memory,

the target image is obtained by photographing a target, and

the processing image includes a pattern recognizable by the computer as an instruction for processing to be performed on the target image and the pattern is present when the processor acquires the processing image from the memory, and

performing the processing on the target image as a result of to acquiring the processing image from the memory and recognizing the pattern as the instruction, and without additional input.
