Automatic exposure control of an in-vehicle camera is performed under dark driving environments such as at night. An in-vehicle camera system includes a vehicle camera mounted in a vehicle configured to capture surroundings of the vehicle, and control circuitry that controls an exposure level of an image captured by the vehicle camera, the control of the exposure level being based on brightness information of a detection area set within the image, the detection area being a portion of the captured image and configured to output the image having exposure control performed thereon to a display.

An image tracking apparatus, which tracks a subject in a moving image, comprising: an image acquisition device that acquires image data indicating the moving image; a first detector that detects a first area of a subject in acquired image data to track the first area in the moving image; a second detector that detects a second area of a subject in the image data to track the second area in the moving image; and a controller that tracks the subject by switching between a tracking result of the first detector and a tracking result of the second detector. The first and the second detector operate independently. The controller tracks the subject using the tracking result of the first detector when the first area is tracked, and tracks the subject using the tracking result of the second detector when the first area is not tracked and the second area is tracked.

An indoor camera includes: an image capturing unit; a storage unit configured to store at least one detection area in association with stagnation times, the detection area that is a target area for detecting stagnation of a pet, and the stagnation times indicating the number of times when the pet enters the detection area and stagnates in the detection area; and a processor configured to detect a position of the pet and count the stagnation times of the pet in the detection area based on captured images. If determining, based on the captured images, that the pet stagnates in the detection area for a predetermined time period or longer, the processor increments and counts the stagnation times of the pet in the detection area and generates an action log including identification information of the detection area and information on the stagnation times.

A indicator is moved from a first position based on a line-of-sight input to a second position according to a moving operation performed on an operating member that receives a user operation different from the line-of-sight input, (a) calibration of an input position in accordance with the line of sight, on a basis of the first position and the second position, is not performed in a case where an instruction operation for executing specific processing at a position of the indicator is not performed, and (b) calibration of the input position in accordance with the line of sight is performed on a basis of the first position and the second position in a case where an instruction operation for executing the specific processing is performed in a state in which there is no additional moving operation, and a specific condition is satisfied.

An avatar generating method and device, a terminal and a storage medium are provided. The avatar model corresponding to the target object is acquired by collecting a frame image of the target object, and the avatar of the target object is rendered based on the avatar model. The similarity between each part of a head of the avatar model and a corresponding part of a head of the target object meets a similarity condition, so that the avatar is generated based the feature of each part of the head of the target object, and different target objects correspond to different avatars.

The present disclosure relates to an information processing device and method, an imaging apparatus and method, a program, and an interchangeable lens that enable acquisition of viewpoint images in accordance with an imaging mode.

For a captured image generated by an image sensor that has different positions irradiated with the respective irradiation light beams having passed through a plurality of monocular optical systems that have optical paths independent of one another, viewpoint image regions that are the regions of the respective viewpoint images corresponding to the respective monocular optical systems are set in accordance with the imaging mode of the captured image. The present disclosure can be applied to an information processing device, an electronic apparatus, an interchangeable lens or a camera system that includes a plurality of monocular optical systems, an information processing method, an imaging method, a program, or the like, for example.

An imaging element includes: a memory that stores captured image data obtained by imaging a subject at a first frame rate; an image processing circuit that performs processing on the captured image data; and an output circuit that outputs output image data obtained by performing the processing on the captured image data to an exterior of the imaging element at a second frame rate, wherein the image processing circuit performs cut-out processing with respect to one frame of the captured image data, the cut-out processing including cutting out partial image data indicating an image of a part of the subject in the captured image data from a designated address in the memory, the output image data includes image data based on the partial image data that is cut out from the captured image data, and the first frame rate is a frame rate higher than the second frame rate.

An electronic device and a controlling method thereof are provided. The electronic device includes a memory, a first camera including a first image sensor and at least one processor, and the at least one processor obtains a plurality of image frames by photographing surroundings of the electronic device through the first camera, sets a region of interest (ROI) on the plurality of image frames, obtains a motion identification map corresponding to each of the plurality of image frames and select at least one image frame from among the plurality of image frames based on the obtained motion identification map, identifies whether there is a motion of an object on the ROI set on the selected at least one image frame, and performs a Super Slow Motion (SSM) function through the first camera based on a result of the identification.

An apparatus comprising a sensor capable of generating a signal pair used in focus detection. The apparatus obtains, based on a defocus amount obtained using the signal pair, a focus distance of a lens unit that is mounted to the apparatus and adjusts a focus distance of the lens unit based on the obtained focus distance. When the lens unit is a multi-scopic lens unit having a plurality of optical systems having different axes, the apparatus obtains the focus distance using an adjustment value obtained based on an axis position that is a position on the sensor through which an axis of the multi-scopic lens unit passes.
