DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of an image display control device, an image display control method and a program for causing a computer to execute the method according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Embodiment 1 FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of the image display control device according to the first embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, the image display control device includes an image acquiring unit 1 for acquiring an image, a feature extracting unit 2 for extracting a feature amount of the image from the image acquired by the image acquiring unit 1, and a database unit 3 for recording a character. , Database part 3
A character processing unit 4 for extracting or transforming specific data from the image processing unit, and an image display unit 5 for displaying data processed by the character processing unit 4.

The image acquisition unit 1 is, for example, a CCD type or a CM
This is realized by an OS type image sensor. Note that the image acquiring unit 1 may be connected to a wireless line or a wired line, and acquire an image via a network connected to the wireless line or the wired line. Further, an image written on a medium such as a smart media or a compact flash (registered trademark) may be obtained.

The feature extraction unit 2 extracts features such as light and darkness, main color components, and the shape of a specific object in the image from the image acquired by the image acquisition unit 1, and characterizes the extraction result. Output to section 4. In the database unit 3,
The information of the character itself includes character attribute data 3a indicating the character of the character and the like, and action pattern data 3b in which a predetermined action on the character is recorded as a pattern.

The character processing unit 4 has an action pattern determination unit 4b, which determines an action pattern based on the feature amount input from the feature extraction unit 2, and determines this action pattern. Corresponding action pattern data 3
b is selected and acquired, a display process for causing the character to act based on the action pattern data 3b is performed, and the display process result is output to the image display unit 5. The image display unit 5
The input display processing result is displayed and output on a display unit such as an LCD. Note that the character processing unit 4 is
c, and the deformation processing unit 4c includes an action pattern determination unit 4b
When the display process is performed on the behavior pattern determined by the above, a deformation process for appropriately deforming the behavior pattern data 3b may be performed. That is, instead of using the action pattern data 3b itself, the action pattern data may be arranged to display the action of the character. In addition, the behavior pattern determination unit 4b
May determine the action pattern in consideration of the current character attribute data 3a when determining the action pattern, or may perform the deformation in consideration of the character attribute data 3a when the deformation processing unit 4c performs the deformation process. Processing may be performed.

Here, an image display control processing procedure by the image display control device shown in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to a flowchart shown in FIG. The database unit 3
Is assumed to hold character attribute data 3a and action pattern data 3b in advance. First, the image acquiring unit 1 acquires an image and outputs the acquired image to the feature extracting unit 2 (Step S101).

After that, the feature extracting unit 2 extracts features such as the brightness of the image, the main color components of the image, and the shape of the specific object in the image, which are sequentially input from the image acquiring unit 1 (step S102). The extraction of the shape is realized, for example, by performing template matching with an image such as a circle or a square prepared in advance as a template. Thereafter, the action pattern determination unit 4b of the character processing unit 4 determines an action pattern based on the input feature amount (Step S103). For example, when the shape as the feature amount is determined to be “bait” for the character, an action pattern of “eat” is determined, and when the color component as the feature amount is a favorite color for the character, “pleasant” Is determined. In this case, whether or not the color is a favorite color for the character is determined by referring to the character attribute data 3a.

The feature extracting unit 2 determines the direction of the movement of the specific object between the plurality of images based on the plurality of images having a predetermined time difference (time-series change), which are images acquired by the image acquiring unit 1. , That is, an optical flow, and outputs the motion information as a feature value. In this case, a specific pattern included in the specific target motion indicated by the motion information is extracted, and the specific pattern is output as a feature amount.
The extraction of the specific pattern can be realized by DP matching. For example, when the above-mentioned human hand is a specific target, the degree of similarity between the human motion pattern and the circular motion pattern is obtained by DP matching, and the feature amount is extracted. At this time, if it is determined that the movement is a circle, the action pattern determination unit 4b determines an action pattern of “turning eyes” as the action of the character.

After that, the character processing section 4 acquires from the database section 3 the action pattern data 3b corresponding to the action pattern determined by the action pattern determination section 4b (step S104). At this time, a character display process is performed, and the display process result is output to the image display unit 5 (Step S).
105). After that, the image display unit 5 displays and outputs the display processing result output from the character processing unit 4 (step S106), and ends this processing.

In the first embodiment, character processing corresponding to image input has been described.
The present invention is not limited to this, and character processing may be performed in parallel by voice input.

In the first embodiment, not only the shape but also the feature amount taking into account the light and darkness and the color components of the image are extracted from the image, and the character's action is appropriately and automatically performed based on the feature amount. As a result, more attractive character movements can be displayed according to the machine.

Embodiment 2 Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the first embodiment described above,
Although the action pattern determination unit 4b determines the action pattern based on the feature amount extracted by the feature extraction unit 2, in the second embodiment, the character attribute data is further determined based on the feature amount. 3a is changed, and an action pattern is determined based on the character attribute data 3a.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an image display control device according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 3, the character processing unit 4 has an attribute changing unit 4a that changes the contents of the character attribute data 3a based on the feature amount output from the feature extracting unit 2. Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment, and the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals.

Here, an image display control processing procedure by the image display control device shown in FIG. 3 will be described with reference to a flowchart shown in FIG. The database unit 3
Is assumed to hold character attribute data 3a and action pattern data 3b in advance. First, the image acquiring unit 1 acquires an image, and outputs the acquired image to the feature extracting unit 2 (Step S201).

After that, the feature extracting unit 2 extracts features such as the brightness of the image sequentially input from the image acquiring unit 1, the main color components of the image, and the shape of a specific object in the image (step S202). Thereafter, the attribute changing unit 4a changes the character attribute data 3a based on the input feature amount (Step S203). For example, if the main color component of the image is "red", the "personality" attribute of the character attribute data 3a is changed to "easy to be angry". Attribute data 3
Change the “personality” attribute of “a” to “dark”. Note that, in this case, the deformation processing unit 4c may sequentially make corrections in consideration of the “character” attribute already recorded. That is, instead of suddenly changing the character attribute data 3a, the character attribute data 3a may be sequentially corrected.

After that, the action pattern determining section 4b of the character processing section 4 determines an action pattern based on the input feature amount (step S204). For example, when the shape as the characteristic amount is determined to be “bait” for the character, an action pattern of “eating” is determined. When the color component as the characteristic amount is a favorite color for the character, “pleasant” Is determined.
In this case, whether the color is a favorite color for the character is determined by referring to the current character attribute data 3a.

Thereafter, the character processing section 4 acquires from the database section 3 behavior pattern data 3b corresponding to the behavior pattern determined by the behavior pattern determination section 4b (step S205), and further acquires the behavior pattern data 3b. At this time, a character display process is performed, and the display process result is output to the image display unit 5 (Step S).
206). After that, the image display unit 5 displays and outputs the display processing result output from the character processing unit 4 (step S207), and ends this processing.

In the second embodiment, character processing corresponding to image input has been described.
The present invention is not limited to this, and character processing may be performed in parallel by voice input.

According to the second embodiment, not only a shape but also a feature value taking into account the light and darkness and color components of the image are extracted from the image, and the attribute of the character is changed based on the feature value. Since the action is performed appropriately and automatically, the action of the more attractive character can be displayed according to the machine.

In particular, in the second embodiment, the character attribute data 3a is automatically updated only by acquiring an image, so that the present invention is suitable for a game device for raising a character.
