IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM

摘要

An image processing apparatus for processing images captured by an image capturing apparatus includes an image input unit to receive a plurality of image frames of a subject captured by the image capturing apparatus along the time line; a tracking area setting unit to set a target tracking area on the plurality of image frames; a tracking unit to track the target tracking area on the plurality image frames; a subject condition prediction unit to predict a condition of the subject at a time point delayed from a time point when the most recent image frame of the plurality of image frames is captured based on a tracking result of the target tracking area; and a parameter setting unit to set a parameter to be used for an image capturing of the subject based on the predicted condition of the subject to the image capturing apparatus.

1. An image processing apparatus for processing images captured by an image capturing apparatus having an optical unit, the image processing apparatus comprising;
an image input unit to receive a plurality of image frames of a subject captured by the image capturing apparatus along the time line from the image capturing apparatus; a tracking area setting unit to set a target tracking area on the plurality of image frames; a tracking unit to track the target tracking area on the plurality image frames along the time line; a subject condition prediction unit to predict a condition of the subject at a time point delayed from a time point when the most recent image frame of the plurality of image frames is captured based on a tracking result of the target tracking area being tracked along the plurality of image frames; and a parameter setting unit to set a parameter to be used for an image capturing of the subject based on the condition of the subject predicted by the subject condition prediction unit to the image capturing apparatus.
