Control apparatus, imaging system, control method, and program for changing a composition of an image

摘要

A control apparatus, an imaging system, a control method, and a program in which, when performing automatic image-recording, subjects which seem to be present around an imaging apparatus can be recorded as evenly as possible. An automatic recording operation for recording, upon detection of a subject from an image obtained by imaging, data representing an image containing the subject is performed. On that basis, if it is determined, on the basis of image-recording history information, that the transition to a subject configuration different from that used in the last image-recording is to be performed, a movable mechanism unit is moved to change an imaging field-of-view range, thereby obtaining a different subject configuration.

主权项

1. A control apparatus, comprising:
circuitry configured to:
receive image data which is obtained based on image captured by an imager;detect one or more subjects present in an image based on the image data;control execution of image-recording to record the image data which represents the image that contains the detected one or more subjects on a recording medium; andcontrol a movable mechanism that changes an imaging field-of-view range of the imager to be driven based on a history of the image-recording of the image data which represents the image that contains the detected one or more subjects by movement of an imaging optical axis of the imager such that a subject that corresponds to a subject configuration which is at least different from a subject configuration used in last image-recording is to be detected,wherein the circuitry is further configured to control the movable mechanism such that the movable mechanism moves in a determined direction by a determined angle, and a value of the determined angle is greater than an angle of view of the imager.
