PURPOSE: To permit conversation in a natural state wherein users look at each other when the users communicate with each other while viewing mutual images of television telephone, television conference, etc., on monitors. CONSTITUTION: A memory 103 stores the image of the full face of a user 100 (image pickup device sight) and a memory 104 stores the image of a current user (who is using the system) at all times. A movement detection means 105 detects the state of the position shift of the image in the memory 103 from the image in the memory 104, and an image position moving means 106 moves the image position in the memory 103 so as to minimize the position shift and writes the moved image in the memory 103 into a memory 107. A moving detecting means 108 detects moving vectors by units of pixels or areas of the image in the memory 104 as to the image in the memory 107 and a control means 109 makes corrections on the basis of the moving vectors so that the image in the memory 104 is put composite with the image in the memory 107, and outputs the resulting image. |
