IMAGING DEVICE, METHOD AND PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM USING SAME

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/114572

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

In the disclosed imaging device, a cropping size is determined that has a prescribed aspect ratio — shared by a plurality of images captured from each of a plurality of imaging units — based on the smallest size of the sizes of candidate regions centered on an initial optical axis center. The image for output is cropped from each of the plurality of images at the shared cropping size determined by a size determining unit, with the center of the initial optical axis before shaking correction set as a standard for each of the plurality of imaging units. Or, a cropping size is determined that has a prescribed aspect ratio shared by images from each of the plurality of imaging units, based on the smallest size of the cropping candidate regions not dependent on shaking correction that responds to the plurality of imaging units. The image for output is cropped from each of the plurality of imaging units at the shared cropping size determined by the size determining unit, with the center of the initial optical axis before shaking correction set as the standard for each of the plurality of imaging units. As a result, an output image preserving the optical axis center position before and after shaking correction can be obtained; therefore, three dimensionality becomes possible using the image for output.
