Image processing apparatus and image processing apparatus control method
An image processing apparatus includes a combining unit configured to combine a plurality of images to generate a panoramic image, a determination unit configured to determine whether the combination of the plurality of images is successful, and a recording unit configured to record the panoramic image. The recording unit records the panoramic image when the determination unit determines that the combination for generating the panoramic image is successful and records one of the plurality of images or an image obtained by cutting out a part of the image when the determination unit determines that the combination for generating the panoramic image is unsuccessful.
1. An image processing apparatus comprising:
at least one memory;
at least one processor connected to the at least one memory and configured to execute instructions to:
combine a plurality of images to generate a first panoramic image; and
cut out a part of a first image of the plurality of images to generate a second image, when a width of the first panoramic image is determined by the at least one processor to be not wider than a predetermined width, wherein the predetermined width is a width of one image of the plurality of images,
wherein the first image is one image captured earliest among the plurality of images, and the second image has a predetermined aspect ratio.
2. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an imaging sensor,
wherein the at least one processor executes further instructions to combine the plurality of images to generate the first panoramic image while the imaging sensor captures the plurality of images.
3. The image processing apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a recording unit,
wherein, when the width of the first panoramic image is not wider than the predetermined width, the recording unit records the second image.
4. The image processing apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a recording unit,
wherein, when the width of the first panoramic image is wider than the predetermined width, the recording unit records the first panoramic image.
5. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor executes further instructions to cut out the first panoramic image to generate a second panoramic image according to the predetermined aspect ratio.
6. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first image and the second image have a same width in a horizontal direction, and the first image is wider than the second image in a vertical direction.
7. The image processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor executes further instructions to cut out partial regions of the plurality of images, perform alignment on the cut-out regions, and combine the cut-out regions to generate the first panoramic image.
8. An image processing apparatus control method, comprising:
combining a plurality of images to generate a first panoramic image; and
cutting out a part of a first image of the plurality of images to generate a second image, when a width of the first panoramic image is determined by at least one processor to be not wider than a predetermined width, wherein the predetermined width is a width of one image of the plurality of images,
wherein the first image is one image captured earliest among the plurality of images, and the second image has a predetermined aspect ratio.
9. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, storing instructions, which when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
combine a plurality of images to generate a first panoramic image; and
cut out a part of a first image of the plurality of images to generate a second image, when a width of the first panoramic image is determined by the at least one processor to be not wider than a predetermined width, wherein the predetermined width is a width of one image of the plurality of images,
wherein the first image is one image captured earliest among the plurality of images, and the second image has a predetermined aspect ratio.
