Image display device, image display method, and program
View Patent ↗An image display device includes a display that displays at least one of a visible image of an object and a thermal image that represents temperature information of the object by a color and a control unit that controls the display. The control unit causes the display to display one of a first image and a second image. The first image includes the thermal image and the visible image. The second image does not include the visible image but includes a thermal image that is more enlarged as compared to the thermal image in the first image with a numerical value indicating a temperature being superimposed for each predetermined region on the thermal image in the second image.
1. An image display device comprising:
a display that displays at least one of a visible image of an object and a thermal image that indicates temperature information of the object;
a control unit that controls the display; and
an operation unit that allows an input of a user's operation of enlarging or reducing an image to be displayed on the display,
wherein the control unit causes the display to display one of a first image, a second image, and a third image, the first image including the thermal image and the visible image, the second image including a thermal image with a numerical value indicating a temperature being superimposed for each predetermined region on the thermal image in the second image, the third image including a thermal image with an edge image extracted from the visible image being superimposed on the thermal image in the third image, and
when the control unit increases an enlargement rate of the image to be displayed on the display according to the user's operation of the operation unit, the control unit changes the image to be displayed on the display in an order of the first image, the third image, and the second image.
2. The image display device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the thermal image is generated from an infrared image captured by an infrared camera, and
the numerical value that indicates the temperature in the second image indicates a value of temperature information obtained from a single pixel of the infrared image.
3. The image display device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the thermal image is generated from an infrared image captured by an infrared camera, and
the numerical value that indicates the temperature in the second image indicates an average value of temperature information values obtained from a predetermined number of pixels of the infrared image.
4. The image display device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a first camera configured to capture the visible image; and
a second camera configured to capture an infrared image,
wherein the control unit generates the thermal image based on the infrared image.
5. The image display device according to claim 1 , wherein the image display device is a tablet terminal.
6. An image display method of displaying a thermal image that indicates temperature information of an object on a display device, the image display method comprising:
obtaining a visible image of the object and a thermal image that indicates the temperature information of the object; and
switching an image to be displayed on the display device to one of a first image, a second image, and a third image according to an operation of enlarging or reducing the thermal image performed by a user, the first image including the thermal image and the visible image, the second image including a thermal image with a numerical value indicating a temperature being superimposed for each predetermined region on the thermal image in the second image, the third image including a thermal image with an edge image extracted from the visible image being superimposed on the thermal image in the third image,
wherein when an enlargement rate of the image to be displayed on the display device is increased according to the operation, the image to be displayed on the display device is changed in an order of the first image, the third image, and the second image.
