A system configured to assist a user in scanning a physical environment in order to generate a three-dimensional scan or model. In some cases, the system may include an interface to assist the user in capturing data usable to determine a scale or depth of the physical environment and to perform a scan in a manner that minimizes gaps.

An information processing apparatus, comprising a display control unit configured to display, in a display area of a display device, an image captured by an imaging apparatus, an area designation unit configured to designate an area for the image displayed in the display area, an enlargement unit configured to extract and to enlarge and display a part of the image displayed in the display area, a determination unit configured to determine whether a position of the designated area is outside the display area as a result of enlarging and displaying the part of the image displayed in the display area, and a notification unit configured to notify, when a determination is made such that the position of the designated area is outside the display area, of the determination.

An image capturing device includes: an imaging device to capture a first image; and circuitry to receive a second image from another image capturing device, the second image being captured with the another image capturing device and having an angle of view wider than that of the first image, and control a display to sequentially display the first image, and an image of an area of the second image that is similar to the first image, the image similar to the first image having the degree of similarity to the first image that is equal to or greater than a threshold.

This application provides a photographing method and an electronic device, and relates to the field of terminal technologies, to ensure stabilization performance existing during photographing in a zoom scenario, and improve definition of a photographing image. The method includes: obtaining a first photographing image through a first camera; determining a first crop ratio of the first photographing image based on a first zoom ratio of the first photographing image; cropping the first photographing image based on the first crop ratio; obtaining a second photographing image through the first camera in response to a first zoom operation; and cropping the second photographing image based on the second crop ratio; wherein the second crop ratio is greater than the first crop ratio, and a stabilization angle of the second photographing image is a product of the FOV of the first camera and the second crop ratio.

An imaging apparatus includes: an image sensor that captures a subject image to generate image data; a first depth measurer that acquires first depth information indicating a depth at a first spatial resolution, the depth showing a distance between the imaging apparatus and a subject in an image indicated by the image data; a second depth measurer that acquires second depth information indicating the depth in the image at a second spatial resolution different from the first spatial resolution; and a controller that acquires third depth information indicating the depth at the first or second spatial resolution for each region of different regions in the image, based on the first depth information and the second depth information.

A user device for imaging a scene includes a first plurality of optical sensors coupled to a substrate for collecting an image of a scene and a second plurality of optical sensors coupled to the substrate for collecting spectral information from the image. A plurality of sets of interference filters are associated with the second plurality of optical sensors, where each interference filter of a set of interference filters is configured to pass light in one of a plurality of wavelength ranges to one or more optical sensors of the second plurality of optical sensors and each optical sensor of the plurality of optical sensors is associated with a spatial area of the image. A processor is adapted to receive an output from the first plurality of optical sensors and the second plurality of optical sensors and determine, based on the spectral information, a target area within the scene. The processor is further adapted to retrieve focus data for the scene, determine a focus distance for the target area and output user-perceptible information to an output display.

Provided are an imaging apparatus, an imaging method, and a program capable of accurately and simply controlling a movement sensitivity of an index displayed on a finder monitor to a sensitivity desired by a user by using a touch panel installed on a rear monitor. The imaging apparatus (10) has a finder that includes the finder monitor (13), the touch panel (31) that receives a swipe operation for moving the index, and an image processing unit (24). The image processing unit (24) includes a sensitivity setting unit that sets a first sensitivity for coarsely moving the index by the swipe operation or a second sensitivity for finely moving the index by detecting a contact operation to the touch panel in the swipe operation, and a movement control unit that moves the index on the basis of the swipe operation on the touch panel and the sensitivity set by the sensitivity setting unit.

Use of improved image acquisition for a medical dose preparation system. The medical dose preparation system may include a work station for capturing medical dose preparation images (e.g., to document preparation of a mediation dose). The medical dose preparation image may be captured by a video data stream processor capable of performing an auto cropping technique on a video data stream received from an image device. Accordingly, memory resources may be more efficiently employed while maintaining high quality medical dose preparation images.

An imaging device includes a control unit that performs first switching processing of switching between a first setting used for imaging in a moving state and a second setting used for imaging in a non-moving state, and second switching processing of alternately switching between a first predetermined F-number for increasing a depth of field and a second predetermined F-number for decreasing the depth of field with respect to an F-number.
