  Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. However, such a form does not limit the technical scope of the present invention.

[First Embodiment]
The configuration of the image processing apparatus according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  The image processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment includes a recording unit 11, a receiving unit 12, a detecting unit 13, a correcting unit 14, and a combining unit 15.

  The recording unit 11 records first information data including the first moving image. The receiving unit 12 receives the second moving image. The detection unit 13 detects a difference in shot time length between the first moving image and the second moving image. A shot refers to a set of continuous frames taken with one camera work. The correcting unit 14 corrects the second moving image based on the difference in time length of the shots detected by the detecting unit 13. The synthesizing unit 15 generates the second information data by executing a replacement process for replacing the first moving image included in the first information data with the second moving image corrected by the correcting unit 14. To do.

  Next, the operation of the image processing apparatus 10 in this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, the recording unit 11 records first information data including a first moving image (step 1). The first information data may include, for example, sound data and character information given to the first moving image in addition to the first moving image.

  Next, the receiving unit 12 receives the second moving image (step 2). The second moving image is transmitted from, for example, a communication terminal outside the image processing apparatus 10.

  When the receiving unit 12 receives the second moving image, the detecting unit 13 detects a difference in shot time length between the first moving image and the second moving image recorded in the recording unit 11 (step 3). ). For example, in this case, assuming that the time length of the first moving image shot is 20 seconds and the time length of the second moving image shot is 15 seconds, the detection unit 13 determines the difference in time length between the shots. Is detected for 5 seconds.

  Next, the correcting unit 14 corrects the second moving image based on the difference in shot time length between the first moving image and the second moving image (step 4).

  For example, when the time length of the first moving image shot is longer than the time length of the second moving image shot, the last frame included in the second moving image may be corrected to be stationary. good. Alternatively, the switching of each frame of the second moving image may be delayed so as to make correction so as to be slow motion as a whole. On the other hand, when the time length of the first moving image shot is shorter than the time length of the second moving image shot, a part of the second moving image may be deleted. Or it is good also as correcting so that switching of each frame of a 2nd moving image may be speeded up and it will be fast-forwarding as a whole.

  Next, the synthesizing unit 15 replaces the second moving image corrected by the correcting unit 14 with the first moving image (step 5). As a result, information data in which the first moving image in the first information data is changed to the corrected second moving image, that is, second information data is generated.

  As described above, the replacement of the moving image by the image processing apparatus 10 is completed.

  An example of the configuration of an image processing system using the image processing apparatus in this embodiment is shown in FIG.

  The image processing system 100 includes the image treatment device 10 of the present embodiment and a communication terminal 20.

  The communication terminal 20 includes a photographing unit 21 and a transmission unit 22. The imaging unit 21 captures the second moving image. The transmission unit 22 transmits the second moving image captured by the imaging unit 21 to the image processing apparatus 10.

  When the receiving unit 12 receives the second moving image received from the communication terminal 20, the image processing apparatus 10 performs the operations of Step 2 to Step 5 described above.

  As described above, in this embodiment, even when the shot time lengths of the first moving image and the second moving image are different, the shot time length does not change before and after the replacement of the moving image. The second moving image can be corrected.

  As a result, for example, when the first moving image is provided with sound data with a predetermined playback time, even if the first moving image is replaced with the second moving image, the problem that the moving image is interrupted in the middle is prevented. it can.

  In addition, when shooting the second moving image, the user does not need to be aware that the shot time length is exactly the same as the first moving image. Therefore, when replacing a moving image shot by the user with an existing moving image, the restriction on the time length of the shot of the moving image shot by the user can be relaxed, and more convenient image replacement for the user is possible. It becomes.

  In the present embodiment, the correction unit 14 and the synthesis unit 15 are described separately, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the synthesis unit 15 may have the function of the correction unit 14 and correct the second moving image.

  Further, the control unit further provided in the image processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment may be configured to control each component of the image processing apparatus 10 via a bus. Similarly, the control unit further included in the communication terminal 20 may be configured to control each component of the communication terminal 20 via a bus.

  As described above, the configuration in which the control unit controls each component of the image processing apparatus or the communication terminal is the same in all embodiments described later.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, an image processing system according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  The image processing system 200 in the present embodiment includes an image processing device 30 and a communication terminal 40.

  In addition to the configuration of the image processing apparatus 10 in the first embodiment, the image processing apparatus 30 includes a dividing unit 16, a determination unit 17, a display unit 18, and a transmission unit 19. The dividing unit 16 divides a moving image composed of a plurality of shots for each shot. The determination unit 17 determines whether the moving image recorded in the recording unit 11 is similar to the moving image received by the receiving unit 12. The display unit 18 displays a moving image included in the information data created by the combining unit 15.

  The communication terminal 40 includes a receiving unit 23 and a display unit 24 in addition to the configuration of the communication terminal 20 in the image processing system 100 of the first embodiment.

  Next, the operation in this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, the recording unit 11 records first information data including a moving image composed of a plurality of shots (step 11). In the present embodiment, the moving image included in the first information data is a moving image for karaoke. The karaoke moving image is, for example, a moving image in which moving image shots are switched for each musical phrase. In addition to the karaoke moving image, the first information data may include, for example, sound data added to the karaoke moving image or character information. The sound data assigned to the karaoke moving image is, for example, karaoke music. Moreover, the character information given to the moving image for karaoke is, for example, subtitles of lyrics of karaoke music.

  On the other hand, the communication terminal 40 transmits the captured moving image captured by the capturing unit 21 to the image processing apparatus 30 by the transmission unit 22.

  The receiving unit 12 of the image treatment device 30 receives the captured moving image transmitted from the communication terminal 40 (step 12). In addition, when the transmission unit 22 and the reception unit 12 transmit and receive moving images, a technique for encoding and decoding image data is used.

  Next, the dividing unit 16 divides the karaoke moving image for each shot (step 13). As a method of dividing for each shot, for example, there is a method of detecting a shot boundary and dividing a moving image into shot units. Further, shot boundaries include a shot boundary called a cut and a shot boundary called a transition. A cut is a shot boundary that switches instantaneously. A transition is a shot boundary that changes gradually within a certain period of time. A detection technique for each of these shot boundaries has been developed. Such a detection technique is described in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-260734.

  Then, when the karaoke moving image is divided for each shot by the dividing unit 16, the determining unit 17 determines whether or not the moving image of each shot is similar to the captured moving image (step 14).

  In determining similarity between moving images, for example, a person included in each moving image may be extracted, and the determination may be made based on the number of persons. Alternatively, it may be determined based on the background color of each moving image. For example, a technique described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-234613 may be used as a technique for determining the similarity of features between moving images.

  Here, it is assumed that, among the moving images of each shot included in the moving image for karaoke, there is a moving image of a shot (hereinafter referred to as a similar moving image) determined by the determination unit 17 to be similar to the captured moving image (hereinafter referred to as a similar moving image). YES in step 14).

  In this case, the detection unit 13 detects a difference in shot time length between the similar moving image and the captured moving image (step 15). Then, the correcting unit 14 corrects the captured moving image based on the difference in shot time length between the similar moving image and the captured moving image (step 16). That is, the correction unit 14 corrects the captured moving image so that the time length of the shot of the captured moving image is the same as the time length of the shot of the similar moving image.

  For example, when the time length of the shot of the similar moving image is longer than the time length of the shot of the captured moving image, the last frame included in the captured moving image may be corrected to be stationary. Or it is good also as correcting so that it may become slow motion as a whole by delaying switching of each frame of a photography moving picture.

  On the other hand, when the time length of the shot of the similar moving image is shorter than the time length of the shot of the captured moving image, a part of the captured moving image may be deleted. Or it is good also as correcting so that switching of each flame | frame of a picked-up moving image may be speeded up and it may be fast-forwarded as a whole.

  In addition, when deleting a part of a picked-up moving image, it is good also as deleting the part in which a person does not appear among a picked-up moving image. Alternatively, a portion of the captured moving image that is not in focus may be deleted. Whether or not a person has appeared may be determined using, for example, a face detection technique described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-147808.

  Next, the synthesizing unit 15 replaces the captured moving image corrected by the correcting unit 14 with a similar moving image. Thereby, information data (hereinafter referred to as second information data) in which the similar moving image that is a part of the moving image for karaoke included in the first information data is replaced with the captured moving image corrected by the correcting unit 14. Is generated (step 17).

  Here, the synthesis unit 15 in the present embodiment performs the image processing performed on the similar moving image also on the captured moving image. The image processing applied to the similar moving image is, for example, image color adjustment or transition processing. More specifically, for example, when image processing is performed so that similar moving images are displayed in monochrome, the synthesizing unit 15 performs image processing so that captured moving images are also displayed in monochrome. Also, when switching between shots of similar moving images and the previous and subsequent shots are executed in a fade-out or fade-in format, image processing is performed so that shots of shot moving images are also switched in the same format. Apply.

  The recording unit 11 may record information related to image processing of each shot included in the karaoke moving image. Then, the synthesizing unit 15 may perform image processing of the captured moving image with reference to information related to image processing of the similar moving image recorded in the recording unit 11.

  Alternatively, the synthesis unit 15 may analyze the image processing of the similar moving image and then perform the image processing of the captured moving image based on the analysis result. In this case, the recording unit 11 is not required to record the image processing information of the moving image of each shot of the karaoke moving image.

  If it is determined in step 14 that there are a plurality of moving images similar to the captured moving image among the moving images of each shot included in the moving image for karaoke, the most similar moving image and the captured moving image It is also possible to replace the image. Alternatively, each moving image having a certain degree of similarity to the captured moving image may be replaced with the captured moving image. In this case, a plurality of shot moving images included in the karaoke moving image may be replaced with the same captured moving image.

  If it is determined in step 14 that there is no moving image similar to the captured moving image among the moving images of each shot included in the karaoke moving image (NO in step 14), It is also possible to return later and wait for receiving another captured moving image.

  As described above, the creation of the second information data by the combining unit 15 is completed.

  Then, the display unit 18 displays the moving image included in the second information data (step 18). When the second information data includes sound data added to the moving image, the sound data may be reproduced by a sound output unit further included in the image processing device 30.

  Here, FIG. 6 shows an example of a moving image processed by the image processing apparatus 30 in the present embodiment. In the example illustrated in FIG. 6, the karaoke moving image included in the first information data is a karaoke moving image including at least five shots 1 to 5. Then, it is determined that the moving image of shot 2 of the shots divided into shots is similar to the captured moving image, and step 15 to step 17 are executed. Thereby, the moving image for karaoke included in the second information data is created.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, among shots included in the karaoke moving image, a shot of a moving image similar to the captured moving image is replaced with the captured moving image. Therefore, for example, in a moving image for karaoke, a moving image of a shot in which a person appears can be replaced with a moving image taken by a user of the communication terminal 40. Thereby, the user of the communication terminal 40 can enjoy the moving image for karaoke in which the moving image which he image | photographed was inserted.

  The synthesizing unit 15 performs image processing similar to the image processing applied to the similar moving image on the captured moving image. For this reason, after replacing the similar moving image with the captured moving image, it is possible to make it difficult to cause a sense of incongruity when the entire moving image for karaoke is viewed. For example, it is assumed that the image processing for displaying in monochrome is performed on the moving images of all the shots of the moving image for karaoke included in the first information data. In this case, if a part of the karaoke moving image is directly replaced with a captured moving image captured in the color mode, only the replaced portion is displayed in color. Therefore, a sense of incongruity occurs when viewed through the entire karaoke moving image included in the second information data. However, in this embodiment, the same image processing as that of the similar moving image is performed on the captured moving image. For this reason, the portion replaced with the captured moving image is also displayed in monochrome, and a sense of incongruity is unlikely to occur.

  However, there may be a case where the user is particular about the color tone and image effect of the captured moving image and does not wish to perform the same image processing as the similar moving image on the captured moving image. Therefore, it may be set so that such image processing is not performed.

  In step 14, when the determination unit 17 determines the similarity between moving images, a difference in shot time length may be taken into consideration. That is, when the difference in shot time length is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, it may be determined that they are not similar. Thereby, it can be avoided in step 16 that the correction unit 14 significantly corrects the shot time length of the captured moving image, thereby causing an unnatural moving image.

  In the present embodiment, the display unit 18 of the image processing apparatus 30 displays the karaoke moving image included in the second information data. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the second information data may be transmitted from the transmission unit 19 of the image processing device 30 to the communication terminal 40. In this case, the receiving unit 23 of the communication terminal 40 receives the second information data. And the display part 24 is good also as displaying the moving image for karaoke contained in 2nd information data. The second information data may be received not by the communication terminal 40 but by another communication terminal.

  In the present embodiment, the case where there is one captured moving image transmitted by the communication terminal 40 has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the communication terminal 40 may transmit a plurality of captured moving images. In this case, the operations of Step 12 to Step 17 may be executed for each of the plurality of captured moving images transmitted from the communication terminal 40.

  In the present embodiment, only the communication terminal 40 transmits the captured moving image, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, a captured moving image may be transmitted from each of a plurality of communication terminals. Also in this case, the operations of Step 12 to Step 17 may be executed for each of the captured moving images transmitted from the plurality of communication terminals.

  In addition, when replacing a part of the karaoke moving image included in the first information data with the captured moving image, a person or the like may be cut out from the captured moving image in units of objects and replaced in units of objects.

  Furthermore, the karaoke moving image described in the present embodiment may be selected by the user from a plurality of karaoke moving images. For example, the user may select a specific piece of music, and step 13 to step 18 may be executed for the karaoke moving image included in the information data corresponding to the piece of music. Thereby, the moving image which the user image | photographed can be inserted in the moving image for karaoke of the music which a user desires.

[Third Embodiment]
Next, an image processing system according to the third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  The image processing system 300 according to this embodiment includes an image processing device 50 and a communication terminal 40. The image processing device 50 includes a display unit 18, a transmission unit 19, and an imaging assistance unit 51 in addition to the configuration of the image processing device 10 in the first embodiment. The communication terminal 40 has the same configuration as the communication terminal 40 of the second embodiment.

  The imaging assistance unit 51 sends imaging information based on a moving image (hereinafter referred to as a first moving image) included in the first information data recorded in the recording unit 11.

  Next, the operation of the image processing system 300 in this embodiment will be described. As in the first embodiment, the recording unit 11 records the first information data including the first moving image.

  First, the transmission unit 22 of the communication terminal 40 transmits a signal (hereinafter referred to as a request signal) requesting photographing information to the image processing device 50 based on a user operation of the communication terminal 40. The transmission of the request signal may be executed by transmitting a predetermined electronic mail, for example.

  Next, when the receiving unit 12 receives the request signal, the shooting assisting unit 51 sends shooting information based on the first moving image. The shooting information is referred to by the user of the communication terminal 40 when shooting a moving image similar to the first moving image. For example, the shooting time length of the first moving image or the character of the person appearing is referred to. Number of people, background color, etc. are included.

  The shooting information sent from the shooting assistance unit 51 may be displayed on the display unit 18 of the image processing apparatus 50. In this case, the user of the communication terminal 40 can check the shooting information displayed on the display unit 18.

  Alternatively, the shooting information sent from the shooting assistance unit 51 may be transmitted to the communication terminal 40 by the transmission unit 19 of the image processing device 50. Then, the shooting information may be displayed on the display unit 24 of the communication terminal 40. In this case, the user of the communication terminal 40 can check the shooting information displayed on the communication terminal 40. Note that the shooting information may be notified to the user of the communication terminal 40 by voice by a sound output unit further included in the image processing device 50 or the communication terminal 40.

  Then, the user who has confirmed the shooting information sent from the shooting assistance unit 51 performs shooting by the shooting unit 21 in accordance with the shooting information.

  For example, it is assumed that shooting information indicating that a moving image in which two persons appear is shot for 15 seconds is sent from the shooting assistance unit 51. In this case, the user shoots a moving image with two persons as subjects for 15 seconds. In addition, when shooting information indicating that a moving image with a green background is to be shot is sent, the user takes a moving image in a place with a lot of green, such as a park.

  A moving image (hereinafter, referred to as a second moving image) captured by the user according to the shooting information is transmitted to the image processing device 50 by the transmission unit 22.

  Since the operation after the receiving unit 12 of the image processing apparatus 50 receives the second moving image is the same as Steps 3 to 5 in the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the shooting assistance unit 51 sends shooting information based on the first moving image. Accordingly, the user can capture a moving image similar to the first moving image without confirming in advance the time length of the shot of the first moving image.

  Generally, the existing first moving image assigned to karaoke music is often a moving image suitable for the karaoke music. Therefore, the user can shoot a moving image suitable for karaoke music by performing shooting while confirming shooting information based on the first moving image. Then, by replacing the moving image taken by the user with the first moving image, the user can enjoy the moving image taken by the user together with the music for karaoke.

  In addition, the first moving image in the present embodiment may be a partial shot of a moving image composed of a plurality of shots included in the first information data. The first moving image may be selected by a user operation from a plurality of moving images. Thereby, it is possible to acquire shooting information related to a moving image desired by the user. Then, it is possible to replace the moving image shot based on the acquired shooting information with the moving image desired by the user.

[Fourth Embodiment]
Next, an image processing system according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  The configuration of the image processing system 400 in this embodiment includes an image processing device 60 and a communication terminal 40. The image processing device 60 includes a display unit 18, a storage determination unit 61, and a notification unit 62 in addition to the configuration of the image processing device 10 in the first embodiment. The storage determination unit 61 determines whether or not the second information data created by the combining unit 15 is to be overwritten and stored on the first information data. The notification unit 62 makes a predetermined notification to the communication terminal 40.

  The communication terminal 40 in this embodiment has the same configuration as the communication terminal 40 in the second embodiment.

  Next, the operation of the image processing system 400 in this embodiment will be described. The difference between the operation of the image processing system 400 in the present embodiment and the image processing system 100 in the first embodiment is the operation after step 5 is completed. Therefore, the description of the operations in steps 1 to 5 is omitted.

  In step 5, when the creation of the second information data by the synthesis unit 15 is completed, the storage determination unit 61 stores the second information data by overwriting the first information data recorded in the recording unit 11. It is determined whether or not to do. Here, the determination by the storage determination unit 61 is performed based on a storage instruction input to the image processing device 60, for example. The save instruction is, for example, when a third party who has viewed a moving image or the like included in each of the first information data and the second information data determines that the second information data is superior. It is good also as inputting.

  When the storage determination unit 61 determines that the second information data is to be overwritten on the first information data, the recording unit 11 overwrites the second information data on the first information data. save.

  When the second information data is overwritten and stored on the first information data, the notification unit 62 of the image processing device 60 sends the communication terminal 40 that is the transmission source of the second moving image received in Step 2. A predetermined notification is given.

  Then, the receiving unit 23 of the communication terminal 40 receives the predetermined notification. Thereby, the user of the communication terminal 40 can know that the second information data in which the moving image photographed by himself / herself is inserted is overwritten on the first information data.

  At this time, the predetermined notification transmitted to the communication terminal 40 may include bonus information for the user of the communication terminal 40. For example, when the image processing apparatus 60 is installed in a karaoke box, this point may be used as a discount ticket for using the karaoke box.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the second information data is overwritten and saved on the first information data, the communication terminal 40 is notified accordingly. Therefore, the user of the communication terminal 40 can know that the moving image captured by himself / herself has been inserted into the information data stored in the image processing device 60, and post the moving image captured by himself / herself to the image processing device. To enjoy.

  In the first to fourth embodiments, a recording medium in which a program code of software that realizes the functions of each embodiment is recorded is supplied to a communication terminal, and the computer of the communication terminal is stored in the recording medium. Needless to say, this can also be achieved by reading and executing the program code.

  As the recording medium for supplying the program, for example, the above-mentioned program can be stored such as a CD-ROM (Compact Disc Read Only Memory), a DVD-R (Digital Versatile Disk Recordable), an optical disc, a magnetic disc, and a nonvolatile memory card. Anything is fine.
