Image processing system, image processing apparatus, image processing method, and program

摘要

There is provided an image processing apparatus including: a communication unit receiving first feature amounts, which include coordinates of feature points in an image acquired by another image processing apparatus, and position data showing a position in the image of a pointer that points at a location in a real space; an input image acquisition unit acquiring an input image by image pickup of the real space; a feature amount generating unit generating second feature amounts including coordinates of feature points set in the acquired input image; a specifying unit comparing the first feature amounts and the second feature amounts and specifying, based on a comparison result and the position data, a position in the input image of the location in the real space being pointed at by the pointer; and an output image generating unit generating an output image displaying an indicator indicating the specified position.

主权项

1. An image processing system comprising first and second image processing apparatuses that each include an input image acquisition unit acquiring an input image produced by image pickup of a real space, wherein
the first image processing apparatus further includes: an image recognition unit recognizing a pointer appearing in a first input image acquired in the first image processing apparatus, the pointer being used to point at a location in the real space; a first feature amount generating unit generating first feature amounts including coordinates of a plurality of feature points set in the first input image; and a first communication unit transmitting the first feature amounts generated for the first input image and position data showing a position of the pointer recognized by the image recognition unit, and the second image processing apparatus further includes: a second feature amount generating unit generating second feature amounts including coordinates of a plurality of feature points set in a second input image acquired in the second image processing apparatus; a second communication unit receiving the first feature amounts and the position data; a specifying unit comparing the coordinates of the plurality of feature points set in the first feature amounts and the coordinates of the plurality of feature points set in the second feature amounts and specifying, based on a result of the comparing and the position data, a position in the second input image of the location in the real space being pointed at by the pointer; and an output image generating unit generating an output image displaying an indicator indicating the position specified by the specifying unit.
