A computer to which the printer 35 and the payment processing unit 36 are electrically connected is provided, and these are housed in the above-mentioned photographing unit 3. In FIG. 3, the communication interface is described as "communication I / F". Further, the touch panel display 31 is an example of the "display unit" of the present invention, and the camera 32 is an example of the "still image photographing unit" and the "moving image photographing unit" of the present invention.

The control unit 5 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a RAM (Random Access Memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), and the like, and controls each component according to information processing. The storage unit 6 is, for example, an auxiliary storage device such as a hard disk drive or a solid state drive, and stores various data such as a program 61 executed by the control unit 5.

The program 61 is a program for causing the photographing apparatus 100 to perform processing for accepting a request for photography, taking a picture in response to the received request, editing a photographed image, and printing, and is an image forming according to the present invention. The program is included. In addition, the storage unit 6 stores screen data and the like used in each processing process. Details will be described later.

The communication interface 7 is, for example, a wired LAN (Local Area Network) module, a wireless LAN module, or the like, and is an interface for performing wired or wireless communication via a network. The type of the communication interface 7 may be appropriately selected depending on the installation location of the photographing apparatus 100 and the like.

It is a medium. As an example of this storage medium, for example, a CD, a DVD, a flash memory, or the like can be mentioned.

The touch panel display 31 is arranged in the center of the front panel of the main body of the photographing unit 3, and a camera 32 used for photography is arranged above the touch panel display 31. The control unit 5 controls shooting by the camera 32. Further, the control unit 5 controls the display of the touch panel display 31 and the input to the touch panel display 31. The types of the touch panel display 31 and the camera 32 may be appropriately selected according to the embodiment.

Specifically, the camera 32 is configured by a known single-lens reflex camera that shoots under the control of the control unit 5, and stores the image obtained by the shooting in the RAM or the storage unit 6. In the present embodiment, since the position of the user at the time of shooting is substantially determined, the distance between the user and the camera 32 at the time of shooting is generally determined. Therefore, the focal length of the camera 32 according to the present embodiment is constant. However, the camera 32 may be provided with a zoom lens, and the focal length can be adjusted by the control unit 5 as needed.

The camera 32 can capture moving images and still images. That is, when a moving image is taken, the light that has passed through the lens is converted into moving image data (moving image signal) by the photographing element. The moving image data is composed of the first image data in the first half portion and the second image data in the second half portion, as will be described later. Then, the moving image data is stored in the RAM and the storage unit 6 of the control unit 5, and the first image data is subjected to image processing for display by the image processing unit 51 (see FIG. 5) described later. After that, it is transmitted to the touch panel display 31. The moving image data is composed of, for example, a plurality of frame images having a sampling rate of 20 frames / sec, and the image processing unit sequentially performs left-right inversion processing on each frame image constituting the first image data. Above, the subject is extracted by chroma key processing and combined with the background image. In this way, a live composite image (display moving image) is generated and displayed on the touch panel display 31. That is, the live composite image displayed on the touch panel display 31 is an image whose left and right sides are reversed, and the user confirms the live composite image displayed on the touch panel display 31 as if he / she sees himself / herself reflected in a mirror. can do. The live composite image thus generated is stored in the storage unit 6. The stored moving image data is used to generate a game moving image as described later. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the moving image data is used to generate the live composite image and the playing moving image.

On the other hand, when a still image is taken, the light that has passed through the lens is converted into still image data (still image signal) by the image sensor when the shutter is closed and then opened and closed. The still image data is stored in the RAM of the control unit 5 and the storage unit 6, and is transmitted to the touch panel display 31. Also at this time, as with the live composite image, the still image displayed on the touch panel display 31 is subjected to left-right inversion processing and chroma key processing on the still image data by the image processing unit 51, and then combined with the background image. It is composited and stored as a composite still image. The image after trimming, which will be described later, is also referred to as a composite still image for convenience of explanation. In addition, the still image data is used as the above-mentioned edited moving image, printing data provided to the user, and data transmitted to a server described later. However, the composite still image provided to the user may not be subjected to the above-mentioned left-right reversal process.

It is also possible to take a still image while taking a moving image, but in this case, since the mechanical shutter (not shown) of the camera 32 opens and closes, at least for a predetermined period including opening and closing. The generation of moving image data is temporarily interrupted. This point will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, when a command to start shooting a moving image is transmitted from the control unit 5 to the camera 32, shooting of the moving image is started and data for the moving image is generated. Then, the focus adjustment for the still image is started, and when the adjustment is completed, the mechanical shutter is opened and closed, and the still image data is acquired. During this time, the generation of moving image data is interrupted. Then, when the shooting of the still image is completed, the generation of the moving image data is started again, and when the command to end the shooting of the moving image is transmitted from the control unit 5 to the camera 32, the generation of the moving image data is completed. .. At this time, the shooting of the moving image is continued from the command for starting the shooting to the command for ending the shooting, and continuous moving image data is generated. However, this moving image data is missing during the time when the still image is being shot, that is, from the start of focus adjustment to the vicinity of the end of shooting the still image. This point will be described in detail.

The moving image data is composed of frame images generated from the shooting start command to the shooting end command, and the generated frame images include, for example, file names (A # a, A # a + 1, A #) in chronological order. a + 2, A # a + n, A # a + n + 1, ...) Are attached and stored. The "A" in the first half of the file name indicates the number of shots among the multiple shots, and the second half "a", "a + 1", etc. are generated in what order. Indicates whether it is a frame image. Further, in order to determine at what point in time the data is missing, the file name of the frame image (referred to as the reference frame image) generated immediately before the timing when the focus adjustment command enters the camera 32 (referred to as the reference frame image). Alternatively, the frame image number) is stored. Then, among the moving image data, the frame image from the shooting start command to the reference frame image constitutes the first image data, and the frame image generated between the next frame image of the reference frame image and the shooting end command. Consists of the second image data. Depending on the type of camera having a mechanical shutter, moving image data may be generated such that data is lost only while the mechanical shutter is opened and closed, regardless of the focus adjustment command. In this case, in order to determine at what point in time the data is missing, the reference frame image is set based on the timing when the mechanical shutter is released, not the timing of the focus adjustment command. The reference frame image corresponds to the rear image data of the present invention.

In this specification, for convenience of explanation, the first image data and the second image data, respectively, in which a background image is synthesized or image processing is applied to the first image data and the second image data, respectively, are the first image data and the second image data. 2 It will be referred to as image data.

In addition to displaying the above-mentioned still image and live composite image on the touch panel display 31, a guidance screen or the like showing shooting guidance is displayed based on the above program 61. Operation inputs such as selection operations are accepted on each screen. The control unit 5 detects an operation input (touch input) for each screen and performs processing according to the detected operation input.

The lighting unit 33 includes an upper lighting unit 331 and a lower lighting unit 332. As shown in FIG. 2, the upper illumination unit 331 has a circular cover facing the user side, and a plurality of straight tube type LEDs are arranged inside the cover. The cover is made of a translucent material such as a milky white acrylic plate, and the light emitted from the straight tube type LED is emitted from above the front to the vicinity of the user's face through the cover. It has become. On the other hand, the lower lighting unit 332 is arranged on the lower side of the touch panel display 31 and around the photographic print outlet 37. The lower lighting unit 332 includes a rectangular cover and a plurality of straight tube type LEDs arranged therein, and the cover is made of the same material as the cover of the upper lighting unit 331. The lower lighting unit 332 irradiates the subject with light from the lower front side. The straight tube type LEDs of the lighting units 331 and 332 are controlled by the control unit 5, and by adjusting the amount of light emission, the brightness in the photographing space 10 is adjusted according to the stage of the photographing process of the user.

The speaker 34 and the printer 35 are built in the main body of the photographing unit 3. The speaker 34 outputs voice such as guidance for taking a picture according to the control by the control unit 5. Further, the printer 35 prints the captured image or the edited image under the control of the control unit 5, and outputs the printed image to the outlet 37.

The payment processing unit 36 is arranged on the right side of the touch panel display 31. Although detailed illustration is omitted, the payment processing unit 36 includes a coin slot, a bill slot, a card reader, and a change slot. The payment processing unit is provided with various sensors, detects the insertion of coins and banknotes, and outputs an activation signal indicating the detection to the control unit 5. In addition, when the amount of cash required for shooting is canceled or the amount of cash is larger than the amount required for shooting, the corresponding amount of cash is discharged to the bill slot or the change slot.

The card reader is configured to be able to read information on cards such as IC cards and credit cards. As this card reader, a known reader capable of reading information on various cards may be used. The card reader accepts payment of charges by electronic money, credit card, etc., and when the payment of the charges is accepted, outputs an activation signal indicating that to the control unit 5.

For example, the control unit 5 may include a plurality of processors. Further, the photographing apparatus 100 may be a general-purpose PC (Personal Computer) or the like, in addition to the information processing apparatus designed exclusively for the provided service.

<3. Software configuration of the shooting device>
Next, an example of the software configuration of the photographing apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 schematically illustrates an example of the software configuration of the photographing apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment.

The control unit 5 of the photographing apparatus 100 expands the program 61 stored in the storage unit 6 into the RAM. Then, the control unit 5 controls each component by interpreting and executing the program 61 expanded in the RAM by the CPU. As a result, as shown in FIG. 5, the control unit 5 and the like of the photographing apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment, as software modules, select a background image, process shooting play, control lighting, and play moving images described later. It functions as an image processing unit 51 that generates an image, an editing processing unit 52 that provides editing play, and an output processing unit 53 that performs processing such as printing a sheet and displaying a moving image. The shooting play is a series of plays for shooting the user as described later, and the editing play is a series of plays for editing graffiti or the like on the editing image described later.

<3-1. Image processing unit>
The image processing unit 51 performs the following processing. Unless otherwise specified, the processing described below is performed by the image processing unit 51. In order to select the background image, first, the background image selection screen 6 shown in FIG. 6 is displayed on the touch panel display 31. In the present embodiment, two close-up images and two full-body images are taken, and a background image for each image is selected. In the upper part of the screen shown in FIG. 6, a background image space for two close-up images and a background image space for two full-body images are provided. Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, these spaces may be referred to as first to fourth spaces 61 to 64 from left to right. An "Random" button 65 is arranged below these background image spaces 61 to 64, and a sample space 66 in which 10 background image candidates are displayed is provided below the "Random" button 65. Although 10 background images are shown in this sample space 66, when the right scroll button 661 or the left scroll button 662 is touched, other 10 background image candidates are displayed. ..

When the user selects (touches) any of the background images in the sample space 66, the selected background images are sequentially displayed in the first to fourth spaces 61 to 64 as shown in FIG. 7. It has become. At this time, if the background image spaces 61 to 64 on which the background image is displayed are touched, the selection of the background image is canceled and the background image is deleted from the background image spaces 61 to 64. This makes it possible to reselect the background image.

It is also possible to select a background image by clicking the "Random" button 65. When the "Random" button 65 is touched while the background image is not displayed in all the background image spaces 61 to 64, the background image randomly selected from the sample space 66 is displayed in each of the background image spaces 61 to 64. Is displayed. At this time, the background images displayed in the background image spaces 61 to 64 are selected so as not to overlap. In this state, if the "X" button in the background image spaces 61 to 64 or the background image spaces 61 to 64 in which the background image is displayed is touched, the selection of the background image is canceled and the background image is canceled in the same manner as above. The background image is erased from the spaces 61 to 64. Here, for example, as shown in FIG. 8, when the "Random" button 65 is touched while the background images of the second and fourth spaces 62 and 64 are canceled, the two background images are randomly selected. , Displayed in the canceled second and fourth spaces 62 and 64, respectively. At this time, the two new background images are selected so as not to overlap with the two background images already selected in the first and third spaces 61 and 63. In this way, when the "Random" button 65 is touched, new background images are selected so as not to overlap the number of background image spaces 61 to 64 in which the background image is not displayed, and the background image spaces 61 to 64 are selected. Is displayed in. If you touch the "Random" button 65 with all four background images selected, the four background images displayed in the background image spaces 61 to 64 will change to these four background images. It is designed to be replaced with another four background images randomly selected from a plurality of background images to be excluded.

Then, when the selection of the background image is completed and the OK button 67 is touched, the process proceeds to the next shooting process. That is, the background image can be selected as many times as necessary until the OK button 67 is touched. Even before the OK button 67 is touched, the background image selection process may be forcibly terminated when the predetermined time has elapsed. At this time, if the selection of the four background images is not completed, the background image selection unit 51 arbitrarily selects the background image. If some background images have already been selected, any background image other than the selected background images is arbitrarily selected.

Next, the processing of the shooting play will be described. When the selection is made from the OK button 67 on the background image selection screen 6, the processing related to shooting is started. First, the close-up image is taken. At this time, the style selection screen 701 for selecting the style of the close-up image shown in FIG. 9 is displayed on the touch panel display 32. As shown in FIG. 9, the style selection screen 701 displays three types of styles for taking close-up images. That is, from the left side to the right side, the high style 71, the low style 72, and the multiplayer style 73 are displayed. The high style 71 is a style for generating a still image including the upper body of a tall subject such as an adult, and the vicinity of the upper part of the captured image is trimmed, and based on this, the above-mentioned composite still image is obtained. Generated. The low style 72 is a style for generating a still image including the upper body of a short subject such as a child, and the vicinity of the middle part of the captured image is trimmed, and based on this, the above-mentioned composite still image is obtained. Is generated. The multi-person style 73 is, for example, a style for generating a still image in which three or more subjects are lined up in the horizontal direction, and the middle portion to the upper portion of the captured image is trimmed long in the left-right direction. Based on this, the above-mentioned composite still image is generated. The aspect ratio of trimming is the same for all styles.

When the user selects any of the styles 71 to 73 and touches the OK button 74, the style selection is completed and the process proceeds to shooting a close-up image. You can select the style as many times as you like until the OK button 74 is touched.

The OK button 67 and the OK button 74 described so far, and the various selection confirmation buttons appearing in the following description are hidden or displayed on each screen until the user performs the first selection operation. It is also possible to hide it for a period of several seconds. As a result, it is possible to reduce the probability that the user accidentally touches the selection confirmation button and confirms the selection that does not suit the user's intention.

FIG. 10 is a close-up image shooting preparation screen. As shown in FIG. 10, the shooting preparation screen 702 indicates that the shooting of the close-up image is started, and the sample pose 75 of the selected style is displayed below the shooting. For example, when the lower style is selected, the model shows a sample pose for a family (two people) including children, and the adult is urged to bend down a little when shooting by voice or the like. In addition, when the high style is selected, sample poses for adults (couples, etc.) are shown, and when a multi-person bib is selected, sample poses for three or more people including children are shown. In addition, four captured image spaces 76 are displayed below the sample pose, and composite still images (two close-up images and two full-body images) captured in these spaces 76 are arranged.

The screen of FIG. 10 is displayed for a predetermined time, during which the user is asked to confirm the sample pose 75. Then, when the predetermined time elapses, the screen transitions to the close-up image shooting screen 703 of FIG. 11, and moving image shooting by the camera 32, that is, acquisition of moving image data is started. On the screen of FIG. 11, a live composite image (display moving image) 77 in which image processing is applied to the first image data which is the first half of the acquired moving image data is generated and displayed, and both sides thereof are generated and displayed. The sample pose 78 is displayed. The sample pose 78 is the same image as the sample pose 75 in FIG. Further, below the live composite image 77, the above-mentioned captured image space 76 is displayed. As described above, in the live composite image 77, at least the following four processes are performed on the first image data captured by the camera 32 in the order of 1 to 4.
1. 1. Trimming process (trimming process) according to the result of style selection in FIG.
2. 2. Subject extraction by chroma key processing (subject extraction processing)
3. 3. Compositing process with the selected background image (compositing process)
4. Mirroring by flipping left and right (mirroring)

If you do not want to invert the design of the background image left and right, you may perform the "left and right inversion process" in 4 before the "composite process with the background image" in 3. As a result, the user can pose while watching the live composite image 77 and adjust the position so that the subject is included in the captured image.

Then, after the countdown is performed, the camera 32 is driven to perform shooting, and still image data is acquired. When the focus of the camera 32 is started while the camera 32 is being driven, the acquisition of the moving image data is interrupted, and the acquisition of the first image data is completed. As a result, the display of the live composite image 77 on the touch display 31 is also stopped. Then, the acquired still image data is trimmed according to the result of style selection, and further, a still image from which the subject portion is extracted is generated by chroma key processing. This still image and the selected background image are combined to generate a composite still image, which is stored in the storage unit 6. Then, as a result of shooting, this synthetic still image is displayed in the area where the live image 77 of the touch display 31 is displayed. The composite still image displayed as a shooting result may be left-right inverted in the same manner as the live composite image 77.

After the still image data is acquired, the acquisition of the moving image data is resumed, and the acquisition of the second image data is started. Then, before the next shooting after the predetermined period starts, the moving image shooting, that is, the acquisition of the moving image data is completed, and the acquisition of the second image data is completed. The first image data and the second image data are stored in the storage unit 6 as moving image data.

When taking a still image, the touch panel display 31 is not the screen shown in FIG. 11 but an entirely white screen between immediately before the shutter is released (several milliseconds before) and immediately after the shutter is released. (Directed still image) is displayed. This makes it possible to obtain a brighter captured image. If you want a dark image, you can display a black screen instead of a white screen. Further, in order to direct the camera 32 to the user, the touch panel display 31 can show a display such as an arrow pointing in the direction of the lens of the camera 32.

After the close-up photography described above is performed twice, the whole body image is taken twice in the same procedure as the close-up photography. Then, the composite still image, the still image data, and the moving image data corresponding to each shooting are generated. Similar to the close-up image, the touch panel display 31 displays the same shooting preparation screen as in FIG. 10 for a predetermined time, and then the same shooting screen as in FIG. 11 is displayed, and the whole body image is taken. A sample pose for a predetermined whole body image is shown on the shooting preparation screen and the shooting screen at this time. In this way, when the shooting of the whole body image is completed twice, the output processing is started. Regarding the shooting of the whole body image, the composite still image generated by this is different from the composite generated image of the close-up shooting, and is an image cut out in a trimming range so as to include the lower body of the subject.

The lighting control by the image processing unit 51 controls the intensity of the light emitted from the lighting unit 33 from the start to the end of the play, but the still image is captured from a predetermined time before the still image is taken. The light intensity of the upper illumination unit 331 and the lower illumination unit 332 is increased until a predetermined time elapses after the completion of the imaging, so that a still image can be appropriately captured. The time for increasing the light intensity of each of the lighting units 331 and 332 can be appropriately changed, and can be, for example, the time from the issuance of the acquisition start command for moving image data to the issuance of the acquisition end command.

Next, a process of generating a moving image for play by the image processing unit 51 will be described. The image processing unit 51 has a function of generating a moving image by using the moving image data and the still image data stored in the storage unit 6. In order to distinguish this moving image from the above-mentioned live composite moving image 77, it is referred to as a game moving image (edited moving image), and the data for this playing moving image is referred to as a game moving image data. The provision of this game video is a surprise service to the user, and the game video is generated without notifying the user that the game video is being generated.

The game moving image is generated by using at least one of the above-mentioned four shootings. For example, when the first close-up shooting is performed, a moving image for play is also generated. As described above, the image processing unit 51 issues a command to start acquisition of moving image data to the camera 32 before a predetermined time for shooting a still image, as shown in the explanation of the live composite image 77, and is stationary. An acquisition end command is given to the camera 32 after a predetermined time has elapsed from the acquisition of the image (see FIG. 4). As a result, moving image data including the first image data and the second image data as described above is generated and stored in the storage unit 6. Then, each frame image constituting the moving image data is trimmed by the image processing unit 51 based on the style selected on the style selection screen 701 described above. At this time, the trimming applied to the moving image data is performed so as to match the trimming applied to the composite still image, thereby, as will be described later, the moving image data and the still image data. To prevent unnaturalness when synthesizing. In addition, chroma key processing is performed on each frame image to extract only the subject, and a background image is combined with this. The background image synthesized at this time is different from the background image selected by the processing by the background image selection unit 51 described above, and is a background image arbitrarily selected by the image processing unit 51. For convenience of explanation, the moving image data, the first image data, and the second image data after the frame image is trimmed, chroma keyed, and combined with the background image are also moving image data. , The first image data, and the second image data.

Next, the image processing unit 51 inserts special image data between the first image data and the second image data, that is, after the last reference frame image of the first image data, and the first image data and the special image data. , And the second image data are reproduced in this order to generate moving image data for play. That is, as described above, the special image data is image data for moving images generated so as to complement the time zone in which the image is missing. There are various methods for generating special image data, but three methods are shown below as examples.

In the first method, as shown in FIG. 12, as the special image data, the still image data of the subject generated between the first image data and the second image data is used. More specifically, first, the image processing unit 51 trims the still image data based on the style selected on the style selection screen 701 described above. Then, the subject is extracted from the trimmed still image data by the chroma key processing, and a composite image data in which a background image different from the one selected by the user is synthesized is generated as well as the moving image data. Then, one composite image data is regarded as one frame, and a plurality of these are connected to generate special image data which is a moving image of several frames. The number of frames generated here is not particularly limited, but for example, the number of frames can be determined according to the time when the image is missing, and can be made longer or shorter than that time. When the special image data thus generated is incorporated between the first image data and the second image data, the moving image data for play is generated and stored in the storage unit 6.

As the second method, the first frame image of the second image data, that is, the next frame image (front image data) of the reference frame image is used. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 13, this frame image is regarded as one frame, and a plurality of these frame images are connected to generate special image data which is a moving image of several frames. The determination of the number of frames is the same as in the first method. When the special image data thus generated is incorporated between the first image data and the second image data, the moving image data for play is generated. It is also possible to generate special image data by using the last reference frame image (rear image data) of the first image data instead of the first frame image of the second image data. However, in a camera in which data loss occurs after the focus adjustment command as described above, the subject often moves, such as taking a pose, because the first image data is being generated before the still image is taken. Therefore, it is preferable to use the second image data immediately after the pose is determined in the shooting. On the other hand, in a type of camera in which data is lost while the shutter is opened and closed, there is no big difference regardless of whether the first image data or the second image data is used. Further, not only the last frame image of the first image data (reference frame image) or only the first frame image of the second image data, but also, for example, an image of the last few frames of the first image data (rear image data). It is also possible to generate special image data using the image of the first few frames of the second image data (corresponding to the front image data). It is also possible to use face detection to select a frame image in which the subject is facing forward from the frame images of the first image data and the second image data.

As a third method, as shown in FIG. 14, a special image is obtained by machine learning using a neural network or the like using the last frame image of the first image data and the first frame image of the second image data. Data can be generated. For example, a learner trained by the error back propagation method is generated from teacher data using the above two frame images as input data and special image data as output data. A predetermined time is formed between the first image data and the second image data, and the subject appearing in the last frame image of the first image data and the subject appearing in the first frame image of the second image data are It may be different. Therefore, the output data included in the teacher data can be a plurality of frame images including the movement of the subject between the two frame images. In this way, when the special image data output from the learner is incorporated between the first image data and the second image data, the moving image data for play is generated.

Further, image processing can be applied to the special image data. For example, by inserting a white frame image at the beginning or in the middle of the special image data, it is possible to give an effect that the strobe emits light in the middle of the moving image for play. In addition, various image processing for effect can be applied to the special image data. For example, for the first, middle and / or last few frames of the part corresponding to the special image data in the moving image for play. Image processing can be performed on the special image data so that the color can be changed and effects such as slide-in, fade-in, and turn are performed. Further, the same image processing can be applied to the first image data and the second image data.

The game video image data generated in this way is used in the output processing described later. It should be noted that the above-mentioned live composite image can also be used to generate moving image data for play. In this case, the live composite image corresponds to the first image data. As described above, the live composite image is subjected to trimming processing, subject extraction processing, compositing processing, and mirroring processing, so that the special image data and the second image data are also subjected to these four processings. .. As a result, it is possible to generate a moving image for a game that is flipped horizontally. Since the left-right inverted game moving image is the one reflected in the mirror, it is possible to provide the familiar figure of oneself as a moving image.

<3-2. Editing process>
Next, the editing processing unit 52 will be described. As shown in FIG. 15, the editing processing unit 54 displays a screen for selecting the number of people to be edited on the touch panel display 31. On this screen, the user selects either one or two people to edit. If the number of people to edit is two, the editing screen of FIG. 16 is displayed on the touch panel display 31, and if there is one person, the illustration is omitted, but only one editing screen is shown. Screen is displayed.

The screen shown in FIG. 16 is a screen for editing a composite still image generated by the image processing unit 51, and a stamp list 804 in which a plurality of stamps for editing are displayed is arranged in the center. A composite still image 805 is displayed on both sides thereof. These are the same. The composite still image displayed here is one of the four created composite still images, but it may be possible to select it. Further, at the bottom of the stamp list, a countdown display showing the time until the end of editing is shown. Further, below each composite still image 805, color pens 806 of a plurality of colors for editing are shown.

Editing of the composite still image 805 is performed, for example, as follows. When the user touches any stamp to select the stamp and then touches any position of the composite still image 805, the selected stamp is displayed at the touched position. Then, until another stamp is selected or the color pen 806 described later is selected, each time the composite still image 805 is touched, the stamp selected at that time is displayed on the composite still image 805. To.

If you touch and select a color pen 806 of any color, the color of the pen is set, and if you draw a line or character with your finger on the composite still image 805 in that state, the line of the selected color or The characters are displayed on the composite still image 805. Then, until the stamp is selected or the color pen 806 of another color is selected, every time a line is drawn on the composite still image 805 with a finger, the line of the color selected at that time is composite still. It is displayed in the image 805.

By the processing of the editing processing unit 54 as described above, the user can perform the editing process until the countdown display becomes 0. Then, when the countdown display becomes 0, the editing processing unit 54 ends the editing process and stores the edited image after the composite still image has been edited in the storage unit 6 as edited image data. Output processing is performed by the output processing unit 55 described below.

<3-3. Output processing unit>
The output processing unit 55 displays a sample of the sheet on which the output image is printed. As described above, when editing is performed by two people, as shown in FIG. 17, a plurality of sheet designs 809 are shown, and the user can touch and select one of them. The seat design can be reselected as many times as necessary until the OK button is touched or the predetermined time elapses. A plurality of the generated edited image or the composite still image is arranged in each sheet design, and the sheet design, the layout of the image, the outline of the image, the position, and the like are different.

When the sheet is determined in this way, the output processing unit 55 prints the sheet by the printer. From the start of preparation for printing the sheet to the time when the sheet is ejected from the take-out port 37, the output processing unit 55 displays the moving image for play on the touch display 31.

Further, the output processing unit 55 can also output at least one of the generated still image data, the edited image data, the image data of the sheet on which the image is arranged, and the game moving image data. In this case, these data may be transmitted directly to the user's mobile terminal, or may be transmitted to an external server and then acquired by the user from the external server via the Internet.

In this embodiment, an example is described in which each software module of the photographing apparatus 100 is realized by a general-purpose CPU. However, some or all of the above software modules may be implemented by one or more dedicated hardware processors. Further, with respect to the software configuration of the photographing apparatus 100, the functions may be omitted, replaced, or added as appropriate according to the embodiment.

<4. Operation example of the shooting device>
Next, an operation example of the photographing apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 18 is a flowchart showing a play procedure.

After the payment process is completed, the screen shown in FIG. 6 is displayed on the touch panel display 31 and a background image is selected (step S11). When the background image is selected, the screen shown in FIG. 9 is displayed, and the shooting style is selected (step S12). Next, the screens shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 are displayed in order, and a close-up image and a whole-body image are taken (step S13). While this shooting is being performed, a moving image for play is also generated in parallel.

In this way, when the shooting is completed, after the number of people to be edited is selected on the screen shown in FIG. 15, the editing screen shown in FIG. 16 is displayed on the touch panel display, and the user is allowed to edit the editing image. (Step S14). When the editing is completed, the screen shown in FIG. 17 is displayed on the touch panel display, and the layout of the sheet is selected (step S15). When the layout of the sheet is determined in this way, the output processing unit 55 starts printing the sheet (step S16). While printing is being performed, the touch panel display 31 is used to notify the user of at least a part of the game moving image generated by the image processing unit 51 (thumbnail of the game moving image, presence of the game moving image). (Including images, characters, etc.) is reproduced, for example, as shown in FIG. 19 (step S17). At this time, it is also possible to notify the user of the existence of the moving image for play by the voice of the speaker 34. Then, when printing is completed, the sheet is ejected from the take-out port 37, and a description indicating that printing is completed is displayed on the touch panel display 31 (step S18).

<5. Features>
As described above, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) The photographing device 100 generates a moving image for a game during the photographing process, and reproduces the moving image for a game on the touch panel display 31 when printing a sheet. ing. Since the user is not notified that the moving image for play is being taken, this can be a surprise service for the user. In particular, since the background image used in the moving image for play is different from the background image used in the synthetic still image, the background image of the created moving image has never been seen by the user. Therefore, it can be further emphasized that this game video is a service for surprises. However, the background image of the moving image for play may be a background image selected by the user.

(2) Since the camera 32 used in the present embodiment is a single-lens reflex camera, if the still image data is to be generated during the generation of the moving image data, the moving image data is missing as described above. Occurs. That is, a predetermined time is missing between the first image data and the second image data. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the still image data, the first, is between the first image data before the still image shooting process and the second image data after the still image shooting is completed. The image data and the special image data generated based on at least one of the second image data are incorporated, and the first image data, the special image data, and the second image data are reproduced in this order to generate a moving image for play. do. Therefore, since the moving image that should enter the time between the first image data and the second image data is complemented by the special image data, a smooth moving image can be provided.

(3) Since LED lighting is used instead of the strobe when shooting a still image, it is possible to generate first image data and second image data without reflection of the strobe.

<6. Modification example>
Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. The modifications shown below can be combined as appropriate.

<6.1>
The screen displayed on the touch panel display 31 shown in the above embodiment is an example, and the layout of the screen and the contents to be displayed can be appropriately changed. In addition, although stamps and color pens are provided for editing, other editing tools can also be provided as appropriate.

<6.2>
In addition to the number of background images, editing stamps and color pens, various restrictions can be set such as editing time, number of photographs to be taken, and selectable sheet layout. In addition, editing play is not always necessary, and output processing can be performed after shooting processing.

<6.3>
In the above embodiment, the moving image for play is reproduced and notified at the time of output processing, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the moving image for play can be reproduced and notified during the shooting process and the editing process.

<6.4>
As in the above embodiment, not only one kind of game moving image may be reproduced, but also a plurality of game moving images may be reproduced on one screen. In the above embodiment, since there are four shots, four types of moving images for play are generated. These four types of moving images can be displayed and played side by side.

Further, the moving image collage can be displayed on the touch display 31. For example, as shown in FIG. 20, it is possible to generate a screen having a plurality of windows for reproducing a moving image for play. In this case, (1) the shape of a plurality of windows and (2) the moving image played in each window can be changed as appropriate. For example, the moving image reproduced in each window is the same, but the screen can be configured so that at least one of the shapes of the plurality of windows is different. Alternatively, it is possible to configure a screen in which at least one different moving image is reproduced, although the shape of each window is the same. Specifically, in the above embodiment, since four still images are taken, it is possible to generate four different types of moving images for play. It is also possible to combine these four different types of moving images for playing into a predetermined video template to generate one new moving image for playing, or to use a plurality of moving images for playing one of the four types. Then, it is possible to generate one new moving image for a game by synthesizing it with a predetermined moving image template.

<6.5>
In the above embodiment, the still image data and the moving image data are generated by one camera 32, but these can also be generated by different cameras. That is, two cameras can be provided. Further, a camera other than the single-lens reflex camera can be used, and a mirrorless single-lens reflex camera and a web camera can also be used.

If a web camera or a mirrorless camera is used, or if two cameras are used, a moving image can be taken even while a still image is being taken, so that there is a lack of data between the first image data and the second image data. It can be prevented from occurring. That is, a series of moving image data that does not particularly distinguish between the first image data and the second image data is generated. However, even in such a case, special image data can be generated and incorporated between the first image data and the second image data to generate moving image data. In general, the still image data has a larger number of pixels than the moving image data, so that the image quality is high. For example, even if trimming is performed, the image quality can be maintained. Therefore, various image processing can be applied to the still image data as compared with the moving image data. Therefore, the quality of the moving image for play can be improved by using the special image data based on the still image which has such high quality and can be subjected to various image processing.

<6.6>
In the above embodiment, the lighting unit 33 having a built-in LED is used, but a lighting unit having a built-in strobe can also be used. In this case, the strobe light may be reflected on the moving image when the still image is taken, but the first image data and the second image data are displayed before and after the light emission time zone in which the strobe light may be reflected. If the special image data corresponding to this light emission time zone is generated as described above, it is possible to generate moving image data in which the strobe light is not reflected. Since the time zone in which the strobe emits light is the timing at which the shutter for still image shooting is released, if a camera having a shutter is used, the moving image data at this time will be lost.

Therefore, in the present invention, it is possible to generate moving image data that can suppress the reflection of strong light regardless of the type of illumination. As the light source in the lighting unit 33, at least one such as an incandescent lamp, an HID, and a mercury lamp can be used in addition to the above-mentioned LED and strobe for photography and other ordinary lighting.

<6.7>
The photographing apparatus 100 according to the above embodiment has a substantially closed photographing space 10, but is provided with a touch panel display 31, a camera 32, a lighting unit 33, a speaker 34, a printer 35, and a payment processing unit 36. The photographing device 100 can be configured only by the unit 3, and the photographing unit 3 can be configured to be open to the outside. In this case, since there is no chroma key processing curtain, the indoor or outdoor scenery in which the photographing apparatus 100 is arranged spreads behind the user.

Even in such a shooting device 100, it is necessary to extract only the subject from the shot image in order to generate a composite still image, a game moving image, or a live composite moving image combined with the background image, but chroma key processing is performed. Because there is no curtain for the image, for example, when the photographing device 100 is installed outdoors, a passerby other than the subject may be reflected behind the subject in the photographed image in addition to the indoor or outdoor scenery. It is necessary to apply known image processing such as excluding these to the captured image to extract the subject. In this case, since the direction of the face with respect to the camera 32, the size of the face, and the distance from the camera 32 are different between the subject and the passerby, the subject and the passerby are distinguished based on such differences. Only can be extracted from the captured image. At this time, the distance from the camera 32 can be calculated by calculating the depth of field or by providing a device such as a distance image sensor or an infrared sensor. Further, by drawing a frame on the ground where the photographing device 100 is installed, the range of the user's standing position with respect to the photographing unit 3 can be limited, and in this way, the subject and the passerby can be distinguished more accurately. be able to. Further, it is also possible to extract the subject from the captured image by machine learning.

Even in the photographing device 100 in which the photographing space 10 is opened to the outside and the photographing is not performed in a dense space, the still image data and the moving image data obtained by synthesizing the subject and the background image can be obtained. Can be generated.

<6.8>
In the above embodiment, input is performed on the touch panel display 31 by a touch operation with a finger, but input can also be performed using an electronic pen, for example. Alternatively, input can be performed by providing an input unit such as a physical button.

<6.9>
In the above embodiment, the captured image and the background image are combined, but in addition to the background image, a foreground image may be used, and any image that decorates the captured image may be used. Also, in the editing play, the combined editing image is edited, but it is not limited to this, and it is not limited to this, but it is a photographed image that has not been combined, or an image that has been slightly processed such as trimming. , May be edited.

<6.10>
In the above embodiment, all the above-mentioned processes are performed by the photographing apparatus 100, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, FIG. 21 shows a photographing system including the photographing apparatus 100 shown in the above embodiment, but the photographing apparatus 100 is connected to the image providing server 200 and the user's mobile terminal 300 via a network 400 such as the Internet. Can be connected to. For example, processing mainly related to shooting a subject by the camera 32 and displaying on the touch panel display 31 (at least processing by the moving image shooting unit and the still image shooting unit of the present invention) is performed by the shooting device, and other processing (for example, for amusement) is performed. A part of the above-mentioned image processing unit 51) such as generation of a moving image can be performed on at least one of the image providing server and the user's mobile terminal 300. When the user's mobile terminal 300 is used, for example, a dedicated application can be installed in advance, and the above-mentioned other processing can be performed by this application. In the case of the above posterity, at least one of the image providing server 200 and the mobile terminal 300 has the image processing unit of the photographing system according to the present invention.

For example, the first image data, the second image data, the still image data, the background image, and the collage base data, that is, all the data for generating the game moving image are received from the photographing device 100, and the image is taken. On the providing server 200 and the mobile terminal 300, moving image data for a game is created. In this case, when the chroma key processing is not applied to the first image data, the second image data, and the still image data, it is necessary to further receive chroma key information (mask image) and information indicating the trimming range. Then, the image providing server 200 and the mobile terminal 300 also perform image processing such as chroma key processing, background image composition, and trimming to generate a moving image for play.

Alternatively, the background image and the data that are the base of the collage are stored in advance in the image providing server 200 or the mobile terminal 300, and the first image data, the second image data, and the still image data are received from the photographing device 100. do. Then, based on the received data, the server 200 and the mobile terminal 300 generate a moving image for play.

<6.11>
In generating the moving image for play, in order to shorten the reproduction time, it is possible to use a part of the first image data and the second image data instead of using all of them. In this case, in order to prevent the subject of the moving image for play from moving unnaturally at the joint between the first image data, the second image data, and the special image data, the first half of the first image data and / Or it is preferable to generate a game moving image without using the latter half of the second image data. It is also possible to use a part of the first image data and the second image data thinned out at regular intervals. By doing so, it is possible to create a video with a reduced frame rate, and it is possible to create an interesting video in which the subject moves jerky. Such partially thinned first image data and second image data are also referred to as first image data and second image data, respectively.

<6.12>
In the above description, the first image data, the special image data, and the second image data are used to generate the moving image data for play, but all three data are not used, for example, the first image data. And, it is also possible to generate game video data so as to reproduce the special image data in this order, or to generate game video data such as to reproduce the special image data and the second image data in this order. .. Therefore, from this point of view, the moving image data according to the present invention may include at least one of the first image data and the second image data. Therefore, the camera 32 (at least a part of the moving image acquisition unit of the present invention) can acquire, for example, only the first image data or only the second image data.

<6.13>
In the above embodiment, the user is allowed to select the range of trimming of the composite still image, the live composite moving image, and the moving image for play, but it is also possible to automatically determine the trimming range. For example, video recording is started before the acquisition of the first image data, the number and composition (height, age, gender) of users are analyzed using the video, and the trimming range according to the result is set for each. It can also be set for each shooting.

<6.14>
Image processing related to the face (enlargement of eyes, small face, etc.), image processing that makes the skin look beautiful, image processing that makes the legs look longer, etc. are additionally applied to the composite still image, live composite video, and game video. You can also. These image processes may be selected by the user, or may be applied to a predetermined one.

<6.15>
It is also possible to create a deepfake moving image using the moving image data and / or the still image data (original data) and provide it as a game moving image. Specifically, the original data is used to detect the characteristics of each user (facial expressions of emotions, age, gender, nationality, etc.) included in the original data, and the face of the model of the video template prepared in advance. A deepfake movie is generated by synthesizing the user's face instead of the model's face so as to match the facial expression. When there are a plurality of users, it is determined which model of the video template the face of each user is combined with according to the age, gender, nationality, etc. of the user. In the case of facilities such as amusement parks, it is also possible to prepare a video of a parade of characters and casts (performers, etc.) as a video template, and create a moving image for play in which the face of the cast is replaced with the face of the user. In addition, in order to improve the accuracy of the deepfake moving image, a dedicated shooting may be performed.
