The images include not only still images but also moving images.

  Ancillary information such as attribute information and tag information can be added to each image included in the image group.

  The attribute information is information representing an attribute of an image, and may be, for example, Exif (Exchangeable image file format) information. The Exif information is information relating to the shooting conditions of the image, and includes, for example, information such as the shooting date and time of the image, the shooting location (position information), the focal length, and the exposure. Exif information is provided as header information of an image (image data) captured by a digital camera or the like.

The tag information is a name representing attribute information of an image, a subject (a person and an object other than a person) shown in the image, and a scene, an event, an emotion, and the like read from the image.
For example, if the shooting year of the image is 2018, tag information “2018” is added to the image, and if the shooting location of the image is Tokyo, tag information “Tokyo” is added to the image. When “meat” and a plurality of “persons” appear in the image as subjects, tag information such as “meat”, “person”, “drinking party”, and “women's party” is added to the image. If the “person” in the image is a smile, tag information such as “smile” and “fun” is added to the image.
The tag information can be automatically given to the image based on the analysis result of the image, or can be manually given to the image by the first user.

  Subsequently, the image analysis unit 22 analyzes each image included in the image group owned by the first user.

The image analysis is not particularly limited, but includes brightness judgment, color evaluation, blurring evaluation, analysis of attribute information, object recognition for recognizing a subject (a person and an object other than a person) appearing in an image, and scene recognition (night view, sea , Sandy beach, sky, ...) and event detection (athletic, wedding, graduation ceremony, ...).
The object recognition includes face detection, person recognition (face recognition), object recognition (meat, fruit, flower, cake, ...).

  Subsequently, the presentation condition receiving unit 24 receives an image presentation condition in accordance with an instruction to set an image presentation condition.

  The image presentation condition is a determination condition for presenting an image held in the image holding unit 30 described later, and is not particularly limited. For example, a determination condition of a timing for presenting the image held in the image holding unit 30, an image Judgment condition of the place where the image held in the holding unit 30 is presented, judgment condition of the person presenting the image held in the image holding unit 30, and a password for presenting the image held in the image holding unit 30 And the like are included.

  In the case of the present embodiment, the presentation condition receiving unit 24 includes, as image presentation conditions, image presentation conditions formed by logical AND of two or more determination conditions, for example, timing determination conditions, place determination conditions, person determination conditions, and An image presentation condition consisting of a logical product of two or more determination conditions among the password determination conditions is accepted. Note that the presentation condition receiving unit 24 can also receive an image presentation condition consisting of only one determination condition.

  Subsequently, the image extracting unit 26 extracts an image from the image group based on the analysis result of each image and the image presentation conditions.

The method by which the image extracting unit 26 extracts an image from an image group is not particularly limited.
The image group from which the image extracting unit 26 extracts the images includes, in addition to the image group owned by the first user, for example, images shared with the first user by an image sharing unit 38 described later, May be included.

  Subsequently, the image selection unit 28 selects an image from the images extracted by the image extraction unit 26 according to the instruction to select an image. The image selecting unit 28 further selects an image from the image group according to an instruction to select an image.

  Subsequently, the image holding unit 30 holds the image (digital image data) extracted by the image extracting unit 26. Alternatively, the image holding unit 30 holds the image selected by the image selecting unit 28 from the images extracted by the image extracting unit 26. The image holding unit 30 further holds the image selected by the image selecting unit 28 from the image group. The image holding unit 30 is configured by various memories.

  When the image presentation condition includes a timing determination condition, the image held in the image holding unit 30 can be used as a time capsule.

  Subsequently, by notifying the image presentation condition, the notifying unit 32 transmits a message indicating that the image held in the image holding unit 30 is presented to the person set as the person determination condition, by the image holding unit 30. In the period from when the image is held to when the image presentation condition is satisfied, the person set as the person determination condition is notified.

  The notification unit 32 can notify the message at any time from when the image is held in the image holding unit 30 to when the image presentation condition is satisfied. For example, a message may be notified immediately after the image is held in the image holding unit 30, and thereafter, the message may be repeatedly transmitted at regular intervals. Alternatively, the message may be notified immediately before, when, or immediately after the first period set as the timing determination condition elapses.

  Subsequently, the satisfaction determination unit 34 determines whether the image presentation condition has been satisfied.

  In the case of the present embodiment, the satisfaction determination unit 34 determines whether the image presentation conditions are satisfied based on the timing determination condition, the location determination condition, the person determination condition, the password determination condition, and the like included in the image presentation conditions. Determine whether or not.

  Subsequently, when the image presentation condition is satisfied, the image presentation unit 36 presents the image held in the image holding unit 30. That is, the time capsule is opened.

  Subsequently, the image sharing unit 38 shares an image between the first user and the second user.

The second user is any one user or a plurality of users other than the first user among all the users who use the image processing system 10.
The image sharing unit 38 makes the image selected by the instruction to select an image public or private to an arbitrary user in response to the instruction to make the image public or private. Further, in response to the instruction to share the image, the image sharing unit 38 shares the image selected by the instruction to select the image only with the sharing partner set by the instruction to set the sharing partner.

  Subsequently, the communication unit 40 is a communication device included in the client 14 and transmits and receives various data to and from the communication device included in the server 12.

  The communication unit 40 uploads, for example, an image (image data) stored in the storage device of the client 14 from the client 14 to the server 12 via the network 16, or transmits an image stored in the storage device of the server 12 to the server 12. 12 to the client 14 via the network 16.

  Next, the operation of the image processing system 10 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

  In the client 14 owned by the first user, first, the image accepting unit 20 accepts an input of an image group owned by the first user in response to an instruction to designate an image group (S1). The image group is stored in the storage device of the client 14. The data is uploaded from the client 14 to the server 12 via the network 16 and stored in the storage device of the server 12.

  Subsequently, each image included in the image group is analyzed by the image analysis unit 22 (S2).

  Subsequently, the presentation condition receiving unit 24 receives the image presentation condition (S3).

Subsequently, the image extracting unit 26 extracts an image from the image group based on the analysis result of each image and the image presentation condition (S4).
By automatically extracting an image from an image group by the image extracting unit 26, for example, when a large number of images are included in the image group, the first user can manually extract the image from the image group. Can be omitted, and the time for selecting an image can be greatly reduced.

Here, if the undesired image is included in the images automatically extracted by the image extracting unit 26, the first user selects any desired image from the images extracted by the image extracting unit 26. You can select an image.
In this case, the image selection unit 28 selects an image from the images extracted by the image extraction unit 26 according to the instruction to select an image (S5).

In addition, when the desired image is not included in the images automatically extracted by the image extracting unit 26, the first user can select an arbitrary desired image from the image group.
In this case, the image selection unit 28 further selects an image from the image group in accordance with an instruction to select an image (S5).

  Subsequently, the image extracted by the image extracting unit 26 is retained by the image retaining unit 30 (S6).

  As described above, when an image is selected by the image selection unit 28 from among the images extracted by the image extraction unit 26, the image holding unit 30 selects an image from among the images extracted by the image extraction unit 26. The image selected by the selection unit 28 is held. Further, when an image is selected from the image group by the image selecting unit 28, the image holding unit 30 further holds the image selected by the image selecting unit 28 from the image group.

The image held in the image holding unit 30 is stored in the storage device of the client 14. The data is uploaded from the client 14 to the server 12 via the network 16 and stored in the storage device of the server 12.
A time capsule is created based on the above-described image presentation conditions and the image held in the image holding unit 30.

For example, by automatically extracting an image by the image extracting unit 26, even a first user who creates a time capsule can put a fresh image that the first user has forgotten into the time capsule. it can.
On the other hand, the first user selects an arbitrary image from among the images extracted by the image extracting unit 26 and further from the image group and puts the selected image into the time capsule, thereby ensuring the desired image. You can choose to put it in a time capsule.

  Subsequently, a message indicating that the image held in the image holding unit 30 is presented to the person set as the person determination condition by satisfying the image presenting condition by the notification unit 32 is displayed in the image holding unit. Between the time when the image is held in the image 30 and the time when the image presentation condition is satisfied, the display 42 of the client 14 owned by the person set as the person determination condition is notified (S7).

  Here, the person set as the judgment condition of the person receives the notification, and then sets the judgment condition set as the image presentation condition, for example, the judgment condition of the timing, the judgment condition of the place, the judgment condition of the person, and the judgment of the password. Attempts to satisfy the conditions.

  Subsequently, the satisfaction determination unit 34 determines whether the image presentation condition has been satisfied (S8).

  Subsequently, when the image presentation conditions are satisfied, the image presentation unit 36 presents the image held in the image holding unit 30, that is, the image contained in the time capsule (S9).

  The image presenting unit 36 uses the image stored in the storage device of the client 14 or the image stored in the storage device of the server 12 as the image held in the image holding unit 30 as a person set as a person determination condition. Is presented on the display 42 of the client 14 owned by the client.

In the image processing system 10, by holding the image extracted by the image extracting unit 26 in the image holding unit, when presenting the image held in the image holding unit, the user who browses the image can enjoy a fresh taste. You can enjoy a certain image.
Further, the time capsule of the present embodiment is a digital time capsule and can be managed digitally, so that the user does not forget the existence of the time capsule itself, the opening date and time, the opening place, and the like. You can definitely enjoy.
Also, like a physical time capsule, not only can the time capsule be opened after a certain time has elapsed, but also because the time capsule can be opened based on determination conditions other than time, the time capsule can be opened. You can enjoy the process like a game.

  Physical time capsules are supposed to be buried in the schoolyard by students at the graduation ceremony of the school, for example, and gathered and excavated together at the ceremony of the adult.

  On the other hand, the digital time capsule of the present embodiment is typically created by the first user at the graduation ceremony of the school and then notified to the students, and the image presentation conditions are set at the ceremony of the adult. If it is satisfied, it is assumed that it will be opened. However, the time capsule of the present embodiment is not limited to the date of the event several years later such as the coming-of-age ceremony, but can be used to be opened on a familiar event day, such as a birthday and mother's day. is there. You can also use it like a time capsule that you send to yourself in the future.

  In addition, a time capsule can be created in cooperation or cooperation with a company or a local government. For example, if a time capsule is created as a regional promotion, a tourist can go to a specific place in the area and browse images contained in the time capsule when certain conditions are satisfied. Such usage is possible. Thereby, tourists can be gathered for the area, and the tourists can open and enjoy the time capsule like a game.

In addition, the notification unit 32 transmits the above-described message as a secret time capsule when the first period set as the timing determination condition has elapsed since the image was held in the image holding unit 30. The person set as the determination condition may be notified for the first time.
Thus, the person set as the person determination condition can enjoy viewing the image held in the image holding unit 30 only by satisfying the other determination conditions without waiting until the first period elapses. Can be.

  Further, for example, the school playground is set as the place determination condition, but there may be a case where the image presentation condition cannot be satisfied unavoidably, such as a case where the school does not already exist due to consolidation or the like.

In this case, the user cannot enjoy watching the images held in the image holding unit 30, and all the images are wasted. In order to prevent this, even if the image presentation condition is not satisfied, the satisfaction determination unit 34 determines that the image presentation condition has elapsed when the second period longer than the first period has elapsed. May be determined to be satisfied.
As a result, even when it is unavoidable that the image presentation conditions cannot be satisfied, the image held in the image holding unit 30 can be enjoyed without being wasted.

  Next, a method of extracting an image by the image extracting unit 26 will be described.

The image extraction unit 26 can extract an image from an image group based on, for example, a shooting location of the image.
In this case, the image analysis unit 22 analyzes the shooting location of each image.
Subsequently, based on the analysis result of the shooting location of each image, an image shot at a location that matches the location set as the location determination condition is extracted from the image group by the image extraction unit 26. .

Further, the image extracting unit 26 can extract an image from a group of images based on a person appearing in the image.
In this case, the image analysis unit 22 analyzes each person appearing in the image.
Subsequently, based on the analysis results of the persons appearing in the respective images, the image extracting unit 26 extracts an image in which a person matching the person set as the person determination condition is found from the image group. Is done.

  To determine whether an image includes a person matching the person set as the person determination condition, for example, a face image of the person set as the person determination condition is registered in advance, and person recognition (face recognition) is performed. Thus, it is possible to confirm by comparing the face shown in the face image of the person set as the determination condition of the person with the face of the person shown in each image included in the image group.

Further, the image extracting unit 26 can extract an image from the image group based on at least one of the subject and the scene shown in the image.
In this case, the image analysis unit 22 analyzes at least one of the subject and the scene shown in each image.
Subsequently, based on the analysis result of at least one of the subject and the scene shown in each image, the image extracting unit 26 selects, from the image group, the subject and the scene that match the password set as the password determination condition. Are extracted.

  Next, a method of determining the image presentation condition by the satisfaction determination unit 34 will be described.

The satisfaction determination unit 34 can determine whether the timing determination condition is satisfied, for example.
For example, when the first period (relative time) is set as the timing determination condition, after the image is held in the image holding unit 30 by the satisfaction determination unit 34, the first time set as the timing determination condition is set. It is checked whether the period has elapsed. As a result, when the first period has elapsed, it is determined that the timing determination condition has been satisfied.

  When the date and time (absolute time) is set as the timing determination condition, the satisfaction determination unit 34 checks whether the date and time set as the timing determination condition have been reached. As a result, when the date and time set as the timing determination condition come, it is determined that the timing determination condition has been satisfied.

  Further, when the usage time of the image presentation device is set as the timing determination condition, the image is held in the image holding unit 30 by the satisfaction determination unit 34, and then the image presentation device based on the person set as the person determination condition is used. It is confirmed whether or not the usage time of the image presentation device has exceeded the usage time of the image presentation device set as the timing determination condition. As a result, when the use time of the image presentation device set as the timing determination condition is exceeded, it is determined that the timing determination condition is satisfied.

Further, the satisfaction determination unit 34 can determine whether or not the location determination condition is satisfied.
For example, when a specific place is set as the place determination condition, whether the satisfaction determination unit 34 has received an image captured by the person set as the person determination condition at the place set as the place determination condition Is determined. As a result, when an image captured by a person set as a person determination condition is received at a place set as a place determination condition, it is determined that the place determination condition is satisfied.

  Whether or not the location is set as the location determination condition can be confirmed by, for example, the shooting location included in the attribute information given to the received image. Whether or not the person is set as the person determination condition can be confirmed by, for example, the ID of the user who uses the image presentation device.

  Also, when a specific place is set as the place determination condition, the person determined as the person determination condition by the satisfaction determination unit 34 is displayed on an online map that matches the place set as the place determination condition. A check is made to see if you have checked in to the location. As a result, when the person set as the person determination condition checks in to the place set as the place determination condition, it is determined that the place determination condition is satisfied.

  The online map is a map of digital data provided from the server 12 to the client 14 of each user using the image processing system 10 via the network 16. Each user can check in the location set as the location determination condition on the online map, and the satisfaction determining unit 34 can confirm the location checked in by each user.

  Further, when a specific person is set as the person determination condition, the satisfaction determining unit 34 checks whether an image including the person set as the person determination condition has been received. As a result, when an image including the person set as the person determination condition is received, it is determined that the person determination condition is satisfied.

  When a plurality of persons are set as the person determination conditions, the satisfaction determining unit 34 checks whether or not an image including the plurality of persons set as the person determination conditions is received. As a result, when an image including a plurality of persons set as the person determination condition is received together, it is determined that the person determination condition is satisfied. Alternatively, it may be confirmed whether or not an image in which each of a plurality of persons set as the person determination conditions is received is received.

  For example, a face image of a person set as a condition for determining a person is registered in advance and whether or not the image includes a person set as the condition for determining a person is determined by person recognition (face recognition). It can be confirmed by comparing the face shown in the face image of the person set as the determination condition with the face of the person shown in the received image.

Further, the satisfaction determination unit 34 can determine whether the password determination condition is satisfied.
When a specific password is set as the password determination condition, the satisfaction determination unit 34 checks whether an image of a subject or a scene that matches the password set as the password determination condition has been received. As a result, when an image including a subject or a scene that matches the password set as the password determination condition is received, it is determined that the password determination condition is satisfied.

  For example, when the password set as the password setting condition is “apple” (subject) and the received image includes “apple”, the satisfaction determination unit 34 determines that the password determination condition is satisfied. . When the password set as the password setting condition is “night scene” (scene), if the received image includes “night scene”, the satisfaction determination unit 34 determines that the password determination condition is satisfied. I do.

  The password may be a character string like “apple” described above, or may be an image such as an image of “apple”. When the password is a character string, the sufficiency determination unit 34 may check whether the password character string has been received.
