IMAGE RECORDING APPARATUS AND IMAGING APPARATUS

摘要

There are provided an image recording apparatus and an imaging apparatus. In the image recording apparatus and the imaging apparatus, a control unit identifies whether an input image input by an image input unit is an omnidirectional image or an ordinary image. An image editing unit, based on an omnidirectional image, converts the omnidirectional image into a panoramic image by developing the omnidirectional image in a circumferential direction. Then, the image editing unit records the converted panoramic image on a recording medium. As for an ordinary image, the image editing unit records the input image input by the image input unit on the recording medium.

主权项

1. An image recording apparatus comprising:
an identification unit configured to identify whether an input image is a surrounding image; a development unit configured to generate a developed image obtained by developing the surrounding image in a circumferential direction; and a control unit configured to record the input image on a recording medium that is detachable from the image recording apparatus, wherein when the input image is identified as being the surrounding image, the control unit performs control so that the developed image is generated by the development unit, and is recorded on the recording medium, and when the input image is identified as not being the surrounding image, the control unit performs control so that the input image is recorded on the recording medium without generating the developed image by the development unit.
