摘要

A technology is disclosed that provides an imaging control device and the like capable of actualizing immersive zoom enlargement. The technology includes: an imaging unit 701 that includes at least two optical systems disposed at an interval of a predetermined baseline-length; a calculating unit 704 that, based on a predetermined reference zoom magnification, a desired zoom magnification in relation to the predetermined reference zoom magnification, and a distance from the imaging unit to a subject, calculates an immersion distance from a virtual position in which the imaging unit should be disposed to actualize the desired zoom magnification to an actual position of the imaging unit and calculates, based on the immersion distance, an interval between the at least two optical systems when the at least two optical systems are disposed on an extension line of a line connecting together the at least two optical systems to actualize a desired zoom magnification that is similar to that when the imaging unit is disposed in the virtual position and the desired zoom magnification is actualized; and a control unit 705 that changes the predetermined baseline-length to the calculated interval and disposes the at least two optical systems. The imaging unit images the subject in the above-described disposal state.

主权项

1. An imaging control device that images at least two images used to enable a user to perceive a subject positioned at a predetermined distance away or more from an imaging point as being three-dimensional, the imaging control device comprising:
an imaging unit for imaging the subject, the imaging unit including at least two optical systems disposed at an interval of a predetermined baseline-length; a calculating unit for calculating, when a zoom magnification of the at least two optical systems disposed at the baseline-length interval serves as a reference zoom magnification, based on the reference zoom magnification, a desired zoom magnification in relation to the predetermined reference zoom magnification, and a distance from the imaging unit to the subject, an immersion distance that is a distance from a virtual position in which the imaging unit should be disposed to actualize the desired zoom magnification to an actual position of the imaging unit, and calculating an interval between the at least two optical systems when the at least two optical systems are disposed on an extension line of a line connecting actual positions of the at least two optical systems to actualize a desired zoom magnification similar to that when the imaging unit is disposed in the virtual position and the desired zoom magnification is actualized, based on the calculated immersion distance; and a control unit for changing the predetermined baseline-length to the calculated interval and disposing the at least two optical systems; and an outputting unit for acquiring information on a virtual viewpoint position of the user based on information on the calculated immersion distance and outputting the information on the virtual viewpoint position outside, wherein the imaging unit images the subject in a state in which the at least two optical systems are disposed by the control unit.
