[Operation of photo sticker]
Here, with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 9, the process of the photo sticker machine 1 that provides the photo sticker creation game will be described.

  In step S1, the control unit 201 of the photo sticker 1 determines whether or not a predetermined amount of coins has been inserted based on a signal supplied from the coin processing unit 221 and waits until it is determined that the coin has been inserted. .

  If it is determined in step S1 that a coin has been inserted, in step S2, the control unit 201 controls the photographing unit 208 to perform the main photographing process. With this photographing process, photographing is performed with the user in the photographing space A1 as the subject. The main photographing process will be described later with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  In step S3, the control unit 201 performs subject image processing. By subject image processing, various types of processing are performed on the subject captured in the photographed image obtained by the main photographing processing. The subject image processing will be described later with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  In step S4, the control unit 201 guides the user in the shooting space A1 to move to the editing space A2-1 or the editing space A2-2. The guidance for movement to the editing space A2-1 or the editing space A2-2 is performed by displaying a screen on the touch panel monitor 93 of the photographing unit 208 or by outputting sound from the speaker 224.

  In step S5, the control unit 201 performs image processing of the captured image. The image processing of the captured image is a process of causing the user to select a composition image to be combined with the captured image selected as the editing target image and combining the selected composition image with the captured image. The image processing of the captured image will be described later with reference to the flowchart of FIG. Note that the image processing of the photographed image in step S5 may be performed by the photographing unit 208 for the user in the photographing space A1.

  The control unit 201 displays the composite image together with the captured image selected as the editing target image on the tablet built-in monitor 131, and accepts the selection by the user. When the image for synthesis is selected by the user, the control unit 201 synthesizes the image for synthesis with the captured image, and displays the obtained synthesized image on the monitor 131 with the tablet.

  In step S6, the control unit 201 controls the editing unit 209A or the editing unit 209B to perform editing processing. The control unit 201 displays an editing screen on the tablet built-in monitor 131, and edits the captured image selected as the editing target in accordance with the editing operation by the user. When the editing is completed, the control unit 201 displays an image selection screen for printing on the tablet built-in monitor 131, and allows the user to select an image to be printed. On the screen for selecting an image to be printed, a photographed image and an edited image are displayed, and a predetermined number of images are selected from them.

  In step S7, the control unit 201 guides the user who has finished the editing process in the editing space A2-1 or the editing space A2-2 to move to the post-service space A3. The guidance of the movement to the post-service space A3 is performed by displaying a screen on the tablet built-in monitor 131 or by outputting sound from the speaker 231.

  In step S <b> 8, the control unit 201 controls the subsequent customer service unit 210 to perform the subsequent customer service process. For example, in the case where the process of transmitting a captured image or an edited image to a mobile terminal is performed as a post-service process, the control unit 201 displays an input screen for an e-mail address of the mobile terminal or a selection screen for an image to be transmitted on a tablet built-in monitor 161, and an image is transmitted according to an operation by the user. In addition, when the process for causing the user to perform the mini game is performed as the post-service processing, the control unit 201 displays the screen of the mini game on the tablet built-in monitor 161. When performing the process of answering the questionnaire as the post-service processing, the control unit 201 displays the questionnaire screen on the tablet built-in monitor 161 and acquires the answer by the user.

  In parallel with the post-service processing in step S8, the control unit 201 performs printing processing in step S9. The control unit 201 outputs the image selected by the user to the printer 241 and prints it on a sticker sheet.

  When the printing is finished, in step S10, the printer 241 discharges the sticker paper on which the image is printed to the sticker paper discharge port 164 and finishes the process.

  As described above, in the photo sticker 1, the subject image processing (step S3) and the captured image processing (step S5) are sequentially performed after the main photographing processing (step S2) performed with the user as the subject. Thereafter, editing processing (step S6) is performed.

  Here, in the photo sticker 1, the time period (timing) during which the subject image processing and the captured image image processing can be performed is limited to a predetermined time from the end of the main capturing process to the start of the editing process. Has been. That is, the photo sticker 1 is restricted so that the subject image processing and the photographed image image processing cannot be performed before the main photographing process ends, and the subject image processing and the photographed image image processing are performed. After the editing process is started, the image processing of the subject and the image processing of the captured image cannot be performed again.

  For example, after the editing process is started, by restricting the image processing of the subject and the image processing of the captured image from being performed again, the user may concentrate only on the editing process after the editing process starts. become able to. For example, subject image processing and photographed image processing are performed, and each processing content is selected (for example, selection of eye size, brightness, background, etc., which will be described later), and editing processing is started again. When the processing contents in the image processing of the subject and the image processing of the captured image can be selected, the user considers selecting the processing contents again. It is assumed that you will not be able to concentrate.

  On the other hand, in the photo sticker 1, the image processing of the subject and the image processing of the captured image cannot be performed again after the start of the editing processing. Therefore, in the editing processing, the user performs the image processing of the subject and the image of the captured image. There is no need to consider selecting the processing contents in the processing again, and it is possible to concentrate only on the editing processing.

  Further, in the photo sticker 1, the user concentrates only on photographing in the main photographing process by preventing the subject image processing and the photographed image image processing from being performed before the main photographing processing is completed. Will be able to. For example, in the case where a background (a composite image for shooting that is an image combined at the time of shooting) is selected before the main shooting process, the user selects the selected background. It is assumed that the main photographing process is performed while paying attention to the situation, and that it becomes impossible to concentrate on photographing. On the other hand, in the photo sticker 1, since the image processing of the subject and the image processing of the captured image are restricted so as not to be performed before the completion of the main photographing process, the user can, for example, Without worrying about, you can concentrate on shooting while looking at the image of yourself.

  In this way, the user can edit by limiting the time period during which the image processing of the subject and the image processing of the captured image can be performed to a predetermined time from the end of the main capturing process to the start of the editing process. It is possible to concentrate on the processing and the main photographing processing. As a result, the photo sticker 1 can provide a photo sticker on which a photographed image subjected to image processing according to the user's request is printed, so that the satisfaction of the user can be further improved. .

  Next, with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 10, the main photographing process performed in step S2 of FIG. 9 will be described.

  In step S <b> 21, the control unit 201 displays a reflection selection screen on the touch panel monitor 93 and accepts a reflection selection by the user. The image selection is selection of the image quality of the photographed image, such as hue and sharpness. The control unit 201 adjusts the image quality of the image captured by the camera 91 in accordance with the image selected by the user.

  In step S <b> 22, the control unit 201 displays a shooting method guidance screen on the touch panel monitor 93. After displaying the shooting method guidance screen, the control unit 201 controls the camera 91 to start capturing an image.

  In step S23, the control unit 201 displays the moving image captured by the camera 91 on the touch panel monitor 93 (performs live view display).

  In step S <b> 24, the control unit 201 displays a countdown indicator on the touch panel monitor 93 and notifies the user of shooting timing.

  When the shooting timing comes, in step S25, the control unit 201 controls the camera 91 to perform shooting, and acquires a shot image that is a still image.

  In step S <b> 26, the control unit 201 displays the captured image on the touch panel monitor 93 and causes the user to check the captured result.

  In step S27, the control unit 201 determines whether or not shooting has been repeated a predetermined number of times. If the control unit 201 determines in step S27 that shooting has not been performed a predetermined number of times, the control unit 201 returns to step S23 and repeats the above processing.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in step S27 that the shooting has been repeated a predetermined number of times such as 6 times, in step S28, the control unit 201 determines whether or not it is within the shooting possible time. For example, if the time since the start of the main photographing process has not passed the time allocated to the main photographing process, it is determined that the time is within the photographing possible time.

  If it is determined in step S28 that the time is within the shootable time, the control unit 201 causes the touch panel monitor 93 to display a bonus shooting guide screen in step S29. The bonus shooting is shooting performed in a form different from the normal shooting performed in step S25. For example, a composite image is combined with a moving image captured by the camera 91 in real time, and an image of the combination result is obtained. Is displayed in live view.

  In step S <b> 30, the control unit 201 reads from the storage unit 202, for example, a shooting composition image that is a composition image to be combined with a moving image. The shooting composition image is not determined in advance, and the user may select a shooting composition image from a plurality of types of images.

  In step S <b> 31, the control unit 201 synthesizes a photographic composition image with each moving image captured by the camera 91, displays the composition result on the touch panel monitor 93, and performs live view display.

  In step S32, the control unit 201 performs bonus shooting. That is, the control unit 201 displays a countdown indicator on the touch panel monitor 93 and notifies the user of the shooting timing.

  When it is time to shoot, in step S33, the control unit 201 controls the camera 91 to perform shooting and obtains a shot image.

  In step S34, the control unit 201 displays a photographed image obtained by the bonus photographing on the touch panel monitor 93, and allows the user to confirm the photographing result.

  After confirming the result of the bonus shooting, or when it is determined in step S28 that it is not within the available shooting time, the process returns to step S2 in FIG. 9 and the subsequent processing is performed. In bonus shooting, the eye size and brightness are not selected, and image processing is performed so as to be the same as the eye size and brightness selected in normal shooting.

  As shown in FIG. 9, after step S <b> 2, subject image processing is performed in step S <b> 3, and a screen displayed on the touch panel monitor 93 during the processing will be described with reference to FIGS. 11 to 14.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of an eye size selection screen used to select the eye size of a subject using a captured image in which the user himself is photographed.

  A captured image 301 obtained by the actual photographing process is displayed on the eye size selection screen. For example, as described with reference to FIG. 10, when the shooting is repeated six times, six shot images are obtained, and six shot images 301-1 to 301- are displayed on the eye size selection screen. 6 is displayed on the left side from the center of the screen. Also, above the captured images 301-1 to 301-6, “↓ Eye size” suggests that the size of the eyes can be confirmed by the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 where the user himself is captured. Please check with your face ”is displayed.

  On the right side of the eye size selection screen, three eye size selection buttons 302-1 to 302-3 are displayed in order from the top. The eye size selection button 302-1 displays characters "natural eye" and an eye image of a model with a natural eye size. The eye size selection button 302-2 displays characters "Patch Lee" and an image of a model eye that has a slightly larger eye size (for example, about 10% larger than the natural size). In addition, on the eye size selection button 302-2, a “recommended” character indicating that it is recommended to select an eye size of this size is displayed together with a heart-shaped figure.

  The eye size selection button 302-3 displays the characters “volume eye” and an image of a model eye having a relatively large eye size (for example, about 20% larger than the natural size). In addition, an arrow from the top to the bottom is displayed on the right side of the eye size selection buttons 302-1 to 302-3, and “natural” is displayed above the arrow, and below the arrows. The word “big” is displayed. That is, it is suggested that the eye size increases as the eye size selection button 302-1, the eye size selection button 302-2, and the eye size selection button 302-3 move downward in this order.

  In addition, on the lower right side of the eye size selection screen, a determination button 303 that is operated when determining the selection of the eye size is displayed. Yes. In addition, on the upper side of the eye size selection screen, characters “Please select the eye size!” Indicating that the screen is used for selecting the eye size are displayed. In addition, a time limit at which the eye size can be selected is displayed in a countdown manner at a position where “Time” is displayed on the upper right side of the eye size selection screen. This time limit is set to 15 seconds, for example, and can be set individually with a time limit for selecting the brightness of a subject to be described later.

  When such an eye size selection screen is displayed on the touch panel monitor 93 and the user selects any of the eye size selection buttons 302-1 to 302-3, the control unit 201 (FIG. 8) selects the user. Accept. Then, the control unit 201 collectively changes the size of the subject's eyes in the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 so that the image of the size selected by the user is captured.

  For example, when the user selects the eye size selection button 302-1, the control unit 201 detects the eye of the subject from the image, and the eye size of the subject in the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 is natural. Image processing is performed to change the size. Then, the control unit 201 updates the display of the eye size selection screen with the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 in which the change is reflected. At this time, the control unit 201 changes the eye size of all the subjects when all of the photographed images 301 are captured in each of the photographed images 301 with respect to all the photographed images 301 obtained by the main photographing process. Apply image processing all at once.

  Similarly, when the user selects the eye size selection button 302-2, the control unit 201 changes the size of the subject eye of the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 to be slightly larger, and the change is made. The reflected captured images 301-1 to 301-6 are displayed. When the user selects the eye size selection button 302-3, the control unit 201 changes the size of the user's eyes shown in the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 to be relatively large. The captured images 301-1 to 301-6 in which the change is reflected are displayed.

  Then, when the user selects the eye size after selecting the eye size, the eye size of the subject is selected with the size reflected in the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 at that time. Is determined.

  As described above, in the photo sticker 1, when the eye size is selected, the control unit 201 performs image processing to change the eye size of the subject in the captured images 301-1 to 301-6, and the change is performed. The captured images 301-1 to 301-6 reflecting the above are displayed. Therefore, the user can select the optimum eye size while confirming the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 on which the user himself / herself reflects the change in the eye size. As a result, the photograph sticker 1 can reliably provide the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 in which the user who has been subjected to image processing so as to have a desired eye size is captured.

  In FIG. 11, the images of the eyes of the model prepared in advance are displayed on the eye size selection buttons 302-1 to 302-3. For example, the images are captured in the captured images 301-1 to 301-6. Any subject's (user's own) eyes may be used. That is, a predetermined range including the subject's eyes is cut out from the photographed images 301-1 to 301-6, and the eye size of the cut-out image is appropriately changed to the eye size selection buttons 302-1 to 302-3. Can be displayed. The change in the eye size includes, for example, changing the size of the eye itself, changing the size of the black eye, and changing the volume of the eyelashes.

  On the eye size selection screen, when the face of the subject is photographed small in the photographed image obtained by the main photographing process, the region where the face is photographed is enlarged from the photographed image, and then enlarged. -1 to 301-6.

  For example, as illustrated in FIG. 12, when the captured image obtained by the actual capturing process is a captured image 311 in which the face of the subject is captured in a small size, the control unit 201 performs a face recognition process to perform a captured image. The size of the face of the subject shown in 311 is recognized. If the control unit 201 determines that the size of the subject's face is small, the captured image 311 is displayed in an image frame (a frame indicated by a broken line in the captured image 311) that has been recognized as being captured by the face recognition process. The photographed image 301 that is enlarged by trimming is displayed on the eye size selection screen. For example, when the image frame in which the face is recognized by the face recognition processing is smaller than a predetermined ratio than the entire captured image 311, the control unit 201 has a wide space around the image frame. When it is free, it is determined that the size of the face of the subject is small.

  In other words, in the actual photographing process, when a photographed image 311 in which the subject's face is captured in a small size is obtained, the subject's eyes are displayed small even if image processing for changing the eye size is performed on the photographed image 311. Therefore, it is assumed that it is difficult for the user to confirm the image processing result. On the other hand, in the captured image 301 obtained by trimming and enlarging the captured image 311 with the image frame in which the face is captured, the eyes of the subject are displayed larger, so that the user can easily confirm the image processing result. The desired eye size can be selected reliably.

  Regarding the process of trimming and enlarging the captured image obtained by the actual capturing process, the example of FIG. 12 shows a method of trimming with the center of the captured image as a reference, but trimming using another method is performed. May be performed.

  With reference to FIG. 13, another method for trimming and enlarging a captured image will be described.

  FIG. 13A shows an example in which trimming is performed so that a region where a face is captured (hereinafter, referred to as a face portion as appropriate) is arranged in the center.

  For example, the control unit 201 performs face recognition processing for recognizing the face of the subject on the captured image 311A to detect a face portion, and sets a trimming frame so that the face portion is included. In FIG. 13A, the face portion is indicated by a dotted line, and the trimming frame is indicated by a one-dot chain line. For example, the control unit 201 sets the trimming frame so that an intermediate point with respect to the center of the plurality of face portions is centered with the same aspect ratio as the captured image 311A. Further, the control unit 201 may be configured such that, for example, as shown in FIG. 13A, the right side of the right face part is slightly inward from the right side of the trimming frame so that all the captured face parts are included in the trimming frame. The trimming frame is set so that the left side of the face part is slightly inside the left side of the trimming frame.

  Then, the control unit 201 performs trimming in accordance with the trimming frame set in this way, and a photographed image 301A in which the face portion detected from the photographed image 311A is arranged at the center and the face of the subject is larger than the photographed image 311A is displayed. get. Therefore, by selecting the eye size on the eye size selection screen (FIG. 11) using the captured image 301A, the user can easily confirm the image processing result, and can select the desired eye size with certainty. Can do.

  FIG. 13B shows an example in which trimming is performed so that a region in which eyes are copied (hereinafter, appropriately referred to as an eye portion) is arranged in the center.

  For example, the control unit 201 performs eye recognition processing for recognizing the subject's eyes on the captured image 311B to detect the eye part, and sets a trimming frame so that the eye part is included. In FIG. 13B, the eye portion is indicated by a dotted line, and the trimming frame is indicated by a one-dot chain line. For example, the control unit 201 sets the trimming frame so that an intermediate point with respect to the center of the plurality of eye portions is centered at the same aspect ratio as the captured image 311B. Further, the control unit 201 makes the right side of the eye part positioned at the right end slightly inside the right side of the trimming frame, for example, as shown in FIG. 13B so that all the captured eye parts are included in the trimming frame. The trimming frame is set so that the left side of the eye portion located at the left end is slightly inside the left side of the trimming frame.

  Then, the control unit 201 performs trimming in accordance with the trimming frame set in this way, and the photographed image 301B in which the eye part detected from the photographed image 311B is arranged at the center and the face of the subject is enlarged than the photographed image 311B is displayed. get. Furthermore, when the subject's eyes are detected and trimmed, the subject's face can be displayed larger than when the subject's face is detected and trimmed, that is, the captured image 301A. . Therefore, by selecting the eye size on the eye size selection screen (FIG. 11) using the photographed image 301B, the face of the subject is displayed larger, so the user can select the desired eye size more reliably. can do.

  FIG. 13C shows an example in which trimming is performed based on an area where the skin of the subject is captured (hereinafter, as appropriate, a skin portion).

  For example, the control unit 201 performs skin recognition processing for recognizing the subject's skin on the captured image 311C to detect the skin portion, and sets a trimming frame so that the skin portion is included. In FIG. 13C, the skin portion is shown by dot hatching, and the trimming frame is shown by a one-dot chain line. For example, the control unit 201 sets the trimming frame so that all skin regions are included with the same aspect ratio as the captured image 311C. Specifically, as illustrated in FIG. 13C, the control unit 201 determines that the skin portion (shoulder or arm contour) on the right side of the image is slightly inside the right side of the trimming frame and the skin portion (shoulder) on the left side of the image. Alternatively, the trimming frame is set so that the contour of the arm is slightly inside the left side of the trimming frame and the skin portion (contour of the elbow) on the lower side of the image is slightly inside the lower side of the trimming frame.

  Then, the control unit 201 performs trimming based on the trimming frame set as described above, so that the skin portion of the subject is included in the image, and the photographed image 301C is displayed with the subject enlarged than the photographed image 311C. Can be obtained. Therefore, by selecting the eye size on the eye size selection screen (FIG. 11) using the captured image 301C, the user can easily confirm the image processing result by enlarging the captured image 301C, and The eye size including not only the face part but also the overall atmosphere can be selected.

  Further, in the process of selecting the brightness of the subject, which will be described later with reference to FIG. 14, the user reliably selects the desired brightness by using the captured image 301C trimmed based on the skin portion. be able to.

  As described above, as described with reference to FIG. 13, various methods can be employed in the process of trimming and enlarging the captured image. Then, by appropriately adopting a method of trimming according to the contents of the image processing (eye size, brightness, etc.), it is possible to display a captured image having a size suitable for the contents of the image processing. It becomes easy to recognize the result of image processing. Thereby, the convenience of the photograph sticker 1 can be improved more.

  Although the example in which the trimming frame is set so as to have a vertically long shape has been described in FIG. 13, for example, the trimming frame may be set by each of the above-described methods so as to have a horizontally long shape. In addition, the control unit 201 has a plurality of trimming frame settings corresponding to a plurality of image processes, and trims the captured image with each setting. Furthermore, the control unit 201 detects the eyes or skin as described above and sets a trimming frame. For example, the control unit 201 detects a predetermined part of a subject such as a mouth and a nose, and the trimming frame so that the predetermined part fits. Can be set.

  Next, FIG. 14 is a diagram illustrating an example of a brightness selection screen used for selecting the brightness of a subject using a captured image in which the user himself is photographed.

  A captured image 311 obtained by the actual photographing process is displayed on the brightness selection screen. For example, as described with reference to FIG. 10, when the shooting is repeated six times, six shot images are obtained, and six shot images 311-1 to 311- are displayed on the brightness selection screen. 6 is displayed on the left side from the center of the screen. In addition, above the captured images 311-1 to 311-6, “↓ Brightness” indicates that the brightness of the subject can be confirmed by the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 in which the user himself is captured. "Check with your face" is displayed. In FIG. 14, the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 displayed on the brightness selection screen are images that have not been trimmed and enlarged as described with reference to FIG. Images trimmed by the method described with reference to FIG. 12 and images trimmed by the respective methods described with reference to FIG. 13 may be displayed. In particular, for example, by displaying an image trimmed based on the skin portion as shown in FIG. 13C, the subject can be displayed in a size suitable for selecting the brightness.

  On the right side of the brightness selection screen, five brightness selection buttons 312-1 to 312-5 are displayed in order from the top. On the brightness selection buttons 312-1 to 312-5, numerical values from “1” to “5” are respectively displayed, and models having different brightness are respectively displayed.

  The numerical values from “1” to “5” of the brightness selection buttons 312-1 to 312-5 indicate the degree of brightness, and the larger the numerical value, the darker the subject becomes.

  The brightness selection button 312-3 displays an image of a standard (natural) brightness model. The brightness selection button 312-2 displays an image of a model with a slightly brighter hue (for example, the brightness is increased by about 10% from the natural brightness), and the brightness selection button 312-1 includes An image of a model having a relatively bright hue (for example, the brightness is increased by about 20% from the natural brightness) is displayed. On the other hand, the brightness selection button 312-4 displays an image of a model with a slightly darker hue (for example, the brightness is reduced by about 10% from the natural brightness), and the brightness selection button 312-5 includes An image of a model with a relatively dark hue (for example, the brightness is reduced by about 20% from the natural brightness) is displayed.

  In addition, on the right side of the brightness selection buttons 312-1 to 312-5, characters “whitening”, “recommended”, and “beautiful black” are displayed in order from the top to the bottom. That is, in the arrangement of the brightness selection buttons 312-1 to 312-5, it is suggested that the upper side brightens the subject and the lower side darkens the subject.

  In addition, a determination button 313 that is operated when determining the brightness of the subject is displayed on the lower right side of the brightness selection screen. The determination button 313 displays the characters “OK”. . In addition, on the upper side of the brightness selection screen, a character “Please choose your favorite brightness!” Is displayed, which indicates that the screen is used for selecting the brightness of the subject. In addition, a time limit in which the brightness of the subject can be selected is displayed in a countdown manner at a position where “Time” is displayed on the upper right side of the brightness selection screen. This time limit is set to 15 seconds, for example, and can be set individually with the time limit for selecting the eye size of the subject described above.

  When such a brightness selection screen is displayed on the touch panel monitor 93 and the user selects any of the brightness selection buttons 312-1 to 312-5, the control unit 201 accepts the selection by the user. Then, the control unit 201 collectively changes the brightness of the subjects of the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 so that the subject is captured at the brightness selected by the user. I do.

  For example, when the user selects the brightness selection button 312-3, the control unit 201 detects a subject from the image, and the brightness of the subjects of the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 becomes a natural brightness. The image processing to be changed is performed. And the control part 201 updates the display of a brightness selection screen with the picked-up images 311-1 to 311-6 in which the change was reflected. At this time, if a plurality of subjects are captured in each captured image 311 with respect to all the captured images 311 obtained by the main capturing process, the control unit 201 changes the brightness of all the subjects. Apply image processing all at once.

  Similarly, when the user selects the brightness selection button 312-2, the control unit 201 changes the brightness of the subjects of the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 to be slightly brighter, and the change is reflected. The captured images 311-1 to 311-6 are displayed. When the user selects the brightness selection button 312-1, the control unit 201 changes the brightness of the subjects of the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 to be relatively bright, and the change is reflected. The captured images 311-1 to 311-6 are displayed. On the other hand, when the user selects the brightness selection button 312-4, the control unit 201 changes the brightness of the subjects of the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 to be slightly darker, and the change is reflected. The captured images 311-1 to 311-6 are displayed. When the user selects the brightness selection button 312-5, the control unit 201 changes the brightness of the subjects of the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 to be relatively dark, and the change is reflected. The captured images 311-1 to 311-6 are displayed.

  When the user selects the determination button 313 after selecting the brightness of the subject, the selection of the brightness of the subject is performed with the brightness reflected in the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 at that time. Is determined.

  As described above, in the photo sticker 1, when the brightness of the subject is selected, the control unit 201 performs image processing to change the brightness of the subject of the captured images 311-1 to 311-6, and the change is performed. The captured images 311-1 to 311-6 reflecting the above are displayed. Therefore, the user can select the optimum brightness of the subject while confirming the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 on which the user himself / herself is reflected. As a result, the photograph sticker 1 can reliably provide the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 in which the user who has been subjected to the image processing so as to obtain the desired brightness is shown.

  In FIG. 14, the face images of the model prepared in advance are displayed on the brightness selection buttons 312-1 to 312-5. For example, the images are captured in the captured images 311-1 to 311-6. Any subject (user's own) face may be used. That is, a predetermined range including the face of the subject is cut out from the captured images 311-1 to 311-6, and the brightness of the subject of the cut-out image is changed as appropriate to change the brightness selection buttons 312-1 to 312-5. Can be displayed.

  Further, when the process of selecting the brightness of the subject is performed after the process of selecting the eye size of the subject as described above, the change in the eye size is reflected in the captured images 311-1 to 311-6. The selected subject is displayed. It is possible to display an image whose brightness has been changed by overwriting a skin image that has undergone image processing on the photographed image. Further, when selecting the brightness of the subject, the user may designate the part of the subject whose brightness is to be changed (for example, hair or skin), and the brightness of the designated part may be changed. .

  Next, the subject image processing performed in step S3 of FIG. 9 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  In step S <b> 41, the control unit 201 causes the touch panel monitor 93 to display an eye size selection screen (FIG. 11) used for selecting the size of the user's eyes that appear in the captured image.

  In step S42, when the user selects an eye size by performing an operation (touch) on any of the eye size selection buttons 302-1 to 302-3 on the eye size selection screen, the control unit 201 displays the touch panel monitor 93. The selection by the user is accepted based on the information supplied from the user.

  In step S43, the control unit 201 collects the sizes of the user's eyes that appear in all the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 so that the image of the size selected by the user is captured. To change.

  In step S44, the control unit 201 displays the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 whose eye size has been changed on the touch panel monitor 93, and allows the user to confirm the result of the eye size change.

  In step S45, the control unit 201 determines whether or not the determination button 303 is pressed based on the information supplied from the touch panel monitor 93. If it is determined that the determination button 303 is not pressed, the control unit 201 returns to step S42 and performs the above processing. repeat.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S45 that the enter button 303 has been pressed, in step S46, the control unit 201 determines the eye size, and stores and stores information indicating the determined eye size in the storage unit 202 or the like. To do. On the editing target image selection screen or editing screen displayed on the tablet built-in monitor 131 after the image processing of the subject is completed, a photographed image showing the user's eyes in the size selected by the user is displayed.

  In step S <b> 47, the control unit 201 causes the touch panel monitor 93 to display a brightness selection screen (FIG. 14) used for selecting the brightness of the subject in the captured image.

  In step S48, when the user selects the brightness of the subject by performing an operation (touch) on any of the brightness selection buttons 312-1 to 312-5 on the brightness selection screen, the control unit 201 displays the touch panel monitor. Based on the information supplied from 93, the selection by the user is accepted.

  In step S49, the control unit 201 collectively changes the brightness of the subjects of all the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 so that the subject has the brightness selected by the user.

  In step S50, the control unit 201 displays the captured images 311-1 to 311-6 in which the brightness of the subject is changed on the touch panel monitor 93, and allows the user to check the brightness change result.

  In step S51, the control unit 201 determines whether or not the determination button 313 has been pressed based on the information supplied from the touch panel monitor 93. If it is determined that the determination button 313 has not been pressed, the control unit 201 returns to step S48 and performs the above processing. repeat.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S51 that the enter button has been pressed, in step S52, the control unit 201 determines the brightness of the subject, and stores and stores information indicating the determined brightness in the storage unit 202 or the like. . A photographed image having the brightness selected by the user is displayed on the editing target image selection screen or editing screen displayed on the tablet built-in monitor 131 after the subject image processing is completed.

  As described above, the subject image processing is processing for selecting the size and brightness of the user's eyes that appear in the captured image. After the subject image processing is completed, the process returns to step S3 in FIG. 9, and the subsequent processing is performed. Note that the process of selecting the eye size or brightness of the subject is performed by subject image processing performed in the photographing space A1, for example, an image of the photographed image performed in the editing space A2-1 or the editing space A2-2. It may be performed in a process. That is, the eye size selection screen (FIG. 11) and the brightness selection screen (FIG. 14) are displayed on the touch panel monitor 93 or the tablet built-in monitor 131 for processing.

  As shown in FIG. 9, after steps S3 and S4, the image processing of the captured image is performed in step S5, and the screen displayed on the tablet built-in monitor 131 during the processing is described with reference to FIGS. explain.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram showing an example of a selection screen for selecting a composite image for shooting used to select a composite image for shooting used for the background of the subject captured in the captured image.

  The shooting composition image selection screen includes a shooting composition image classification button display area 321, a shooting combined image display area 322, and a shooting image and shooting combined image display area 323.

  A normal button 324, a pattern button 325, and a set button 326 are displayed in the display area 321 of the photographic composite image classification button. In the example of FIG. 16, a state where the normal button 324 highlighted in black is selected is shown.

  The normal button 324 and the pattern button 325 are operated when the user selects a desired shooting composition image from a plurality of shooting composition images. By selecting the normal button 324, it is possible to select a desired photographic composition image from among photographic composition images having various colors. Further, by selecting the pattern button 325, a desired shooting composition image can be selected from the shooting composition images having various patterns.

  The set button 326 is operated when the user selects a desired set of photographic composition images from a plurality of photographic composition images. The set of photographic composition images includes, for example, any type of photographic composition image according to the number of images (for example, six images) out of a plurality of types of photographic composition images having various colors and patterns. Combined and prepared in advance.

  A plurality of photographed composite images are displayed in the photographed composite image display area 322. The captured composite image is an image in which the subject of the captured image and the composite image for shooting are combined together. Also, in the photographic composite image display area 322, a photographic composite image obtained by combining the photographic composite images classified according to selection of the normal button 324, the pattern button 325, and the set button 326 is displayed. In the example of FIG. 16, the normal button 324 is selected, and 27 images (3 rows × 9 columns) in which a composite image for shooting composed of various colors is combined as the background of the user who is the subject of the captured image. ) Shows a composite image.

  For example, when a user selects an arbitrary photographed composite image from a plurality of photographed composite images displayed in the photographed composite image display area 322, a composite image for photographing combined with the photographed composite image Is selected. Then, in the captured composite image selected by the user, an “already” mark indicating that it has already been selected is displayed. In addition, a character “SELECT” indicating that the user has just selected is displayed in the photographed composite image selected immediately before.

  A captured composite image 327 and a captured image 328 are displayed in the display area 323 of the captured image and the captured composite image. In the example of FIG. 16, four captured composite images 327-1 to 327-4 and two captured images 328-5 and 328-6 are displayed in the display area 323 of the captured image and the captured composite image. ing. Cancel buttons 329-1 to 329-4 are respectively displayed below the captured composite images 327-1 to 327-4.

  For example, when the shooting composition image selection screen is first displayed, six captured images 328 are displayed in the display area 323 of the captured image and the captured composite image. Note that, in the captured image and captured composite image display area 323, captured images 328 are displayed in order from the left in the order captured by the actual capturing process, and the captured composite images are selected in order from the captured image 328 displayed on the left end. Is called. The captured image 328 is an image in which the size and brightness of the subject's eyes are changed by the above-described subject image processing.

  The user selects a desired shot composite image from a plurality of shot composite images displayed in the shot composite image display area 322 for the first shot image 328. A photographic composition image combined with the photographic composite image is selected. Accordingly, the display of the first photographed image 328 is updated to the photographed composite image 327-1 selected by the user. That is, instead of the first photographed image 328, a photographed composite image 327-1 obtained by compositing the photographed composition image selected by the user is displayed on the background of the subject of the first photographed image 328. The Further, a cancel button 329-1 is displayed below the photographed composite image 327-1.

  Hereinafter, similarly, when the user sequentially selects a composite image for photographing with respect to the second photographed image 328, the third photographed image 328, and the fourth photographed image 328, according to the selection. The captured composite images 327-2 to 327-4 are respectively displayed. Further, cancel buttons 329-2 to 329-4 are respectively displayed below the captured composite images 327-2 to 327-4.

  As described above, in FIG. 16, the shooting composition image selection screen at the time when the shooting composite image is selected for the fourth shot image 328 and the shot composite image 327-4 is displayed. It is shown.

  Therefore, on the selection screen for the composite image for photographing, the composite image for photographing with respect to the photographed image 328-5 is selected. To suggest this, a frame 330 is displayed so as to surround the photographed image 328-5, and “select the fifth background!” Above the display area 323 of the photographed image and the photographed composite image! Characters are displayed.

  Further, on the left side of the display area 323 of the photographed image and the photographed composite image, “the background selected with the cancel button can be canceled” suggesting that the photographed composite image selected by the cancel button 329 can be cancelled. Characters are displayed. That is, by operating the cancel button 329, it is possible to cancel the selection of the photographic composite image combined with the photographic composite image 327 displayed above it and reselect the photographic composite image. . In addition, a time limit for selecting a photographic composite image is displayed in a countdown manner at a position where “Time” is displayed on the upper right side of the photographic composite image selection screen. Note that the time limit for selecting a composite image for shooting is set to 30 seconds, for example, and is set separately from the time limit for selecting the eye size or brightness of the subject as described above (eye size or brightness). Can be set to a time longer than the time limit selected.

  A button 331 for erasing a person is displayed on the right side of the display area 322 for the captured composite image.

  The erase button 331 is used to change the display of the captured composite image displayed in the captured composite image display area 322 to a state in which the subject is not combined, that is, the display of the captured composite image display area 322. Is operated as a compositing image for photographing. For example, normally, in the photographic composite image display area 322, a photographic composite image in which the subject of the photographic image is combined with the photographic composite image is displayed. It is assumed that it may be difficult to confirm. In such a case, when the user operates the button 331 for erasing a person, a composite image for shooting (that is, only the background) is displayed in the display region 322 of the captured composite image. It becomes easy for a person to confirm the color and pattern of the composite image for photographing.

  Further, when the erase button 331 is operated to display the composite image for shooting in the captured composite image display area 322, the character displayed on the erase button 331 is “display a person. Is changed. Then, when the display of the photographed composite image display area 322 is a composite image for photographing, when the user operates the button 331 for erasing the person, the display area 322 of the photographed composite image is restored to the original, as shown in FIG. In this way, a combined photographed image in which a composite image for photographing is combined with the background of the subject is displayed.

  Next, FIG. 17 is a diagram showing another example of the selection screen for combining images for shooting.

  As shown in FIG. 17, the selection screen for the composite image for photographing shows a state where the pattern button 325 highlighted in black is selected. Accordingly, in the captured composite image display area 322, 27 (3 rows × 9 columns) captured composite images for shooting having various patterns are combined as the background of the user who is the subject of the captured image. A composite image is displayed.

  In the example of FIG. 17, captured composite images 327-1 to 327-6 are displayed in the display area 323 of the captured image and the captured composite image, and the composite for capturing is combined with all of the 6 captured images. The state where the selection of the image for use has been shown is shown. As described above, when selection of the photographic composite image for all the photographic images is completed, the selection of the photographic composite image is determined on the right side of the display region 323 of the photographic image and the photographic composite image. A determination button 333 to be operated is displayed. Then, when the user operates the determination button 333, the selection of the photographic composite image is determined from the photographic composite images 327-1 to 327-6 displayed in the display region 323 of the photographic image and the composite image. The

  Here, when the normal button 324 or the pattern button 325 is selected, the selection of the combined image for shooting is completed for all of the captured images displayed in the display area 323 of the captured image and the captured composite image. In this case, an automatic background button 332 is displayed on the selection screen for the composition image for shooting.

  When the user selects the background auto button 332, the control unit 201 automatically selects a combination of shooting composition images and, as shown in FIG. 18, the shooting composition in which these shooting composition images are combined. A confirmation screen 341 for confirming the image is displayed in a pop-up so that the user can confirm. At this time, the captured composite image displayed on the confirmation screen 341 is an image obtained by combining the subject of the captured image and the composite image for shooting together.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram showing an example of a confirmation screen 341 displayed on the tablet built-in monitor 131 when the user operates the background auto button 332. The confirmation screen 341 is displayed so as to be overlaid on the selection screen (for example, FIG. 17) of the photographic composition image.

  On the upper side of the confirmation screen 341, there is a text “OK with this automatic background? (The background you have selected so far will disappear.)” Suggesting that you confirm the automatically selected combination image for shooting. Is displayed. Then, in the center of the confirmation screen 341, a photographed composite image obtained by compositing automatically selected combination composite images for photographing is displayed. In this way, the confirmation screen 341 is displayed in a pop-up so that the captured composite image is displayed in a larger set than when it is displayed in the display area 323 of the captured image and the captured composite image. It is possible to easily confirm what kind of captured composite image is to be obtained.

  A determination button 342 and a cancel button 343 are displayed below the confirmation screen 341. The decision button 342 displays the characters “OK”, and by operating the decision button 342, a combined image for photographing is automatically selected. On the cancel button 343, the word “quit” is displayed, and by operating the cancel button 343, the combination image for photographing automatically selected is cancelled.

  For example, when the user operates the determination button 342, a combination image for photographing that is automatically selected is determined. On the other hand, when the user operates the cancel button 343, the combination image for shooting automatically selected is canceled, and the display on the tablet built-in monitor 131 is displayed before the background auto button 332 is operated, for example, FIG. Return to the screen for selecting a composite image for shooting.

  As described above, when the user operates the background auto selection button 332, the user does not select the photographic composite image, but creates the photographic composite image from the combination of the photographic composite images automatically selected. Is done. As a result, it is possible to improve the satisfaction of users who are not particular about the design and color of the photographic composition image and the users who are troublesome to select the photographic composition image. Furthermore, by preparing a combination that has a sense of unity in the design and color of the composite image for photographing, it is possible to provide such a user with a finished paper with a higher degree of perfection. For example, when the user himself / herself selects a photographic composite image for each photographic image, but the design and color of the photographic composite image is not uniform, by operating the background auto button 332 Therefore, it is possible to provide a finished paper with a higher degree of perfection.

  Note that the combination of the shooting composition images automatically selected by operating the background auto selection button 332 includes a plurality of types (for example, various colors or patterns). For example, a plurality of combinations of photographic composition images are prepared in advance, and the control unit 201 can select a combination of photographic composition images that is optimal for the subject of the photographed image.

  In addition, when a predetermined number (for example, 6) of edit target images is selected in the process of causing the user to select an edit target image (step S61) in the image processing of the captured image of FIG. The background auto button 332 can be displayed from the beginning on the selection screen for the composite image for shooting. In this case, the user can perform an operation on the background auto button 332 immediately after the shooting composition image selection screen is displayed, so that the user can perform an operation of selecting the shooting composition image. Therefore, it is possible to provide a finished paper with a higher degree of perfection in a shorter time.

  Next, FIG. 19 is a diagram showing still another example of the selection screen for the composition image for photographing.

  As shown in FIG. 19, the selection screen for the composition image for photographing shows a state in which the set button 326 highlighted in black is selected.

  In this case, in the photographic composite image display area 322, arbitrary types of photographic composite images are combined into one set according to the number of shots, and these photographic composite images are combined as the background of the subject. A set of a predetermined number of photographed composite images is displayed. In the example of FIG. 19, six shooting composite images are combined into one set, and a set of eight shooting composite images is displayed. The user can select a photographic composition image for each set from the set of eight photographic composition images, and this is suggested on the upper side of the selection screen for the composition images for photographing. "Please choose the background for the set!"

  It should be noted that in the captured composite image display area 322, only the composite image for shooting may be displayed without combining the users, and the button 331 for erasing the person may not be displayed. In other words, it is assumed that the set of photographic composition images will be displayed more than the normal photographic composition image, so the processing load will increase, whereas only the photographic composition image will be displayed. Thus, the processing load can be reduced by not performing the process of combining the users.

  Further, in the display area 323 of the photographed image and the photographed composite image, for example, the photographed composite image 327-1 to the composite image for photographing that has been selected by the user before the set button 326 is selected. 327-6 is displayed.

  Then, when the user selects a desired set of shooting composite images from the set of eight shooting composite images displayed in the shooting composite image display area 322, as shown in FIG. A confirmation screen 351 for confirming the selection pops up. At this time, the captured composite image displayed on the confirmation screen 351 is an image obtained by combining the subject of the captured image and the composite image for capturing together.

  For example, FIG. 20 is a diagram illustrating an example of a confirmation screen 351 displayed on the tablet built-in monitor 131 when the user selects the set “image 1” for composite images for shooting. The confirmation screen 351 is displayed so as to be superimposed on the selection screen for combining images for shooting shown in FIG.

  On the upper side of the confirmation screen 351, the text “Is this set OK? (The background you have selected so far will disappear)” is displayed, which suggests that you confirm the selection of the set of composite images for shooting. The In the center of the confirmation screen 351, a set of photographed composite images obtained by compositing the composite images for photographing “set 1” selected by the user is displayed. In this way, the confirmation screen 351 is displayed in a pop-up so that the set of the photographed composite image is displayed larger than when it is displayed in the display area 322 of the photographed composite image. It can be easily confirmed whether it is a captured composite image.

  A determination button 352 and a cancel button 353 are displayed below the confirmation screen 351. The decision button 352 displays the characters “OK”, and by operating the decision button 352, the selection of the set of images for composition for shooting is decided. On the cancel button 353, the word “quit” is displayed. By operating the cancel button 353, the selection of the set of images for composition for shooting is cancelled.

  For example, when the user operates the determination button 352, a photographic composite image to be combined as a subject background of the photographic image is determined from the set of photographic composite images selected at that time. On the other hand, when the user operates the cancel button 353, the selection of the set of shooting composite images is canceled, and the display on the tablet built-in monitor 131 returns to, for example, the shooting composite image selection screen of FIG.

  In the confirmation screen 351, for example, an operation for the normal button 324 or the pattern button 325 is performed to individually select a composite image for photographing, and then an operation for the set button 326 is performed to select a set of composite images for photographing. When displayed. Further, the confirmation screen 351 is displayed when an operation for the set button 326 is performed from the beginning to select a set of shooting composition images without individually selecting the shooting composition images. Further, for example, the confirmation screen 351 is displayed when a set of shooting composition images is selected and canceled once, and a set of shooting composition images is selected again.

  Next, image processing of the captured image performed in step S5 of FIG. 9 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  In step S61, the control unit 201 selects an image to be edited on the tablet built-in monitor 131 in the editing space that is the destination of the user who has finished the shooting process out of the editing space A2-1 and the editing space A2-2. The screen is displayed and the selection by the user is accepted. On the selection screen for the image to be edited, a list of the captured images obtained by the actual imaging process is displayed.

  In step S62, the control unit 201 stores the captured image selected as the editing target image in the storage unit 202 and saves it.

  In step S <b> 63, the control unit 201 causes the tablet built-in monitor 131 to display a shooting composition image selection screen. For example, as shown in FIG. 16, a normal button 324, a pattern button 325, and a set button 326 are displayed on the selection screen for composite images for shooting.

  In step S64, the control unit 201 determines which of the normal button and the set button has been selected. For example, when the user performs an operation on the normal button 324 or the pattern button 325, the control unit 201 determines that the normal button has been selected. On the other hand, when the user performs an operation on the set button 326, the control unit 201 determines that the set button has been selected.

  If it is determined in step S64 that the normal button has been selected, the process proceeds to step S65, and the control unit 201 performs a process (FIG. 22 to be described later) for selecting a shooting composite image for the normal button.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in step S64 that the set button has been selected, the process proceeds to step S66, and the control unit 201 performs a process (FIG. 23, which will be described later) for selecting a shooting-use composite image for the set button.

  After the process of step S65 or S66, the process proceeds to step S67, and the control unit 201 determines whether or not a predetermined time set as the image process for the captured image has elapsed. When it is determined in step S67 that the predetermined time has not elapsed, the control unit 201 returns to step S64 and repeats the above processing.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in step S67 that the predetermined time has elapsed, the process returns to step S5 in FIG. 9, and the subsequent processing is performed.

  Next, with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 22, the process for selecting the normal button shooting composite image performed in step S65 of FIG. 21 will be described.

  In step S71, the control unit 201 displays the captured composite image corresponding to the button selected by the user in the determination in step S64 of FIG. 21 in the captured composite image display area 322 on the selection screen for composite images for shooting. To do.

  In other words, when the user selects the normal button 324, as shown in FIG. 16, a photographic composite image obtained by synthesizing photographic composite images having various colors is displayed. Further, when the user selects the pattern button 325, as shown in FIG. 17, a combined photographed image obtained by combining composite images for photographing composed of various patterns is displayed. At this time, for example, a photographic image 328 in which the photographic composite image is not combined as a background is displayed in the display region 323 of the photographic image and the composite image. The photographed image 328 is an image selected as an editing target in step S61 in FIG. 21, and is an image in which the eye size and brightness of the subject have been changed in the image processing of the subject in step S3 in FIG. is there.

  In step S <b> 72, the control unit 201 determines whether or not a photographic composite image has been selected by the user from among a plurality of photographic composite images displayed in the captured composite image display area 322. For example, when the user uses the touch pen 132 </ b> A or 132 </ b> B to select a captured composite image displayed in the captured composite image display area 322, the control unit 201, based on a signal from the tablet built-in monitor 131, It is determined that the photographic composite image combined with the photographic composite image has been selected.

  If it is determined in step S72 that the user has selected a shooting composition image, in step S73, the control unit 201 displays a combined shooting image 327 in which the shooting composition image selected by the user is combined. The captured image and the captured composite image are displayed in the display area 323. At this time, the control unit 201 displays a captured composite image 327 in which the selected composite image for shooting is combined, instead of the captured image 328 in the order of selection of the composite image for shooting, A cancel button 329 is displayed below the captured composite image 327.

  On the other hand, after the processing in step S73 or when it is determined in step S72 that the user has not selected a shooting composition image, in step S74, the control unit 201 determines whether or not the cancel button 329 has been operated. Determine.

  If it is determined in step S74 that the cancel button 329 has been operated, in step S75, the control unit 201 displays the captured composite image 327 displayed above the operated cancel button 329 as the original captured image. Returning to 328, the cancel button 329 is hidden. Thereafter, the process returns to step S72, and the same process is repeated thereafter.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in step S74 that the cancel button 329 has not been operated, in step S76, the control unit 201 determines whether or not a predetermined number (for example, six) of shooting composite images has been selected. judge.

  If it is determined in step S76 that a predetermined number of images for composition for shooting have been selected, the determination button 333 is displayed as described with reference to FIG. 17, and the control unit 201 determines in step S77. It is determined whether or not the button 333 has been operated.

  If it is determined in step S76 that the predetermined number has not been selected, or if it is determined in step S77 that the enter button 333 has not been operated, in step S78, the control unit 201 displays the composite image for shooting. It is determined whether or not a predetermined time set for selection has elapsed.

  If it is determined in step S78 that the predetermined time has not elapsed, the process returns to step S72, and thereafter the same process is repeated. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S78 that the predetermined time has elapsed, it is determined in step S79 whether or not a predetermined number (for example, six images) of composite images for shooting has been selected.

  If it is determined in step S79 that a predetermined number of image-capturing composite images have been selected, or if it is determined in step S77 that the enter button 333 has been operated, in step S80, the control unit 201 A predetermined number of composite images for photographing selected by the user are determined.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S79 that the predetermined number of photographic composite images has not been selected, the control unit 201 automatically selects an unselected number of photographic composite images in step S81. Then, a predetermined number of composite images for photographing are determined. For example, in the control unit 201, a shooting composition image to be selected when a time for selecting a shooting composition image has been set in advance.

  After the process of step S80 or S81, the process for selecting the shooting composite image for the normal button is completed, the process returns to step S65 of FIG. 21, and the subsequent processes are performed.

  Next, with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 23, the process for selecting the set button shooting composite image performed in step S66 of FIG. 21 will be described.

  In step S91, the control unit 201 sets the captured composite image corresponding to the button selected by the user in the determination in step S64 of FIG. 21 as the selection screen for the combined image for shooting in the selection screen for the combined image for shooting. indicate. That is, in this case, since the set button 326 has been selected, as shown in FIG. 19, six shooting composite images are combined into one set, and a set of eight shot composite images is taken. It is displayed in the composite image display area 322.

  In step S92, the control unit 201 determines whether or not the user has selected a set of photographic composite images from among a plurality of photographic composite images displayed in the captured composite image display area 322. And waits for processing until it is determined that a set of photographic composition images has been selected. For example, when the user uses the touch pen 132A or 132B to select a set of captured composite images displayed in the captured composite image display area 322, the control unit 201 is based on a signal from the monitor 131 with built-in tablet. Thus, it is determined that a set of photographing composition images has been selected.

  If it is determined in step S92 that a set of shooting composition images has been selected, in step S93, the control unit 201 sets a shooting combined image set obtained by combining the shooting composition images selected by the user. The confirmation screen to be displayed is displayed on the tablet built-in monitor 131. For example, as shown in FIG. 20, a determination button 352 and a cancel button 353 are displayed on the confirmation screen 351.

  In step S94, the control unit 201 determines whether or not the determination button 352 has been operated by the user. If it is determined that the determination button 352 has not been operated, in step S95, the control unit 201 selects a shooting composition image. It is determined whether or not a predetermined time set to do so has elapsed.

  If it is determined in step S95 that the predetermined time has not elapsed, the process returns to step S92, and the same process is repeated thereafter. Even when the user operates the cancel button 353 on the confirmation screen 351, the confirmation screen 351 is not displayed and the processing returns to step S92.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S94 that the enter button 352 has been operated, or if it is determined in step S95 that a predetermined time has elapsed, in step S96, the control unit 201 sets the set selected by the user. The combined image 327 is determined by combining the combined images for shooting. After that, the process of selecting the set button shooting composite image is completed, the process returns to step S66 in FIG. 21, and the subsequent processes are performed.

  As described above, in the photo sticker 1, the subject image processing, that is, the image processing for changing the eye size and brightness of the subject is performed in the photographing unit 208 that performs the main photographing processing. The user can concentrate on the editing process as compared with the case where the editing unit 209A or the editing unit 209B performs the editing process. Thus, the user can perform more optimal editing, and the photo sticker 1 can provide the sticker paper on which the image subjected to such editing is printed. The degree can be improved.

  In the image processing of the subject (step S3 in FIG. 9), the image processing content (changed eye size, changed brightness, etc.) is confirmed using a captured image of the user himself / herself. The eye size and brightness are selected. Therefore, the user can select the optimum image processing content for himself / herself while confirming the image processing result, and the photo sticker 1 has printed the image subjected to the image processing by such selection. Since the sticker paper can be provided, user satisfaction can be improved.

  Further, in the image processing of the photographed image (step S5 in FIG. 9), the composite image for photographing is selected using the composite photographed image obtained by combining the composite image for photographing as the background of the user's own subject. Therefore, the user can select the optimum composite image for photographing as his / her background, and the photograph sticker 1 prints the composite photographed image obtained by synthesizing the selected composite image for photographing. As a result, it is possible to improve the user's satisfaction.

  In the photo sticker 1, for example, in the image processing of the subject, the eye size and brightness of the captured images 301-1 to 301-6 in FIG. The eye size and brightness can be individually changed for each sheet. That is, it is assumed that the shooting pose and expression differ for each captured image, and the optimum eye size and brightness differ depending on the shooting pose and expression. Accordingly, by accepting changes in the eye size and brightness for each of the photographed images 301-1 to 301-6, the eye size and brightness optimal for each photographing pose and facial expression can be obtained. It is possible to improve user satisfaction.

  Similarly, in the photo sticker 1, for example, in subject image processing, the subject eye size and brightness of the photographed images 311-1 to 311-6 in FIG. The eye size and brightness of the subject can be changed for each image so that the eye size and brightness are optimal.

  Furthermore, in the photo sticker 1, when a plurality of subjects are captured in one photographed image, the eye size and brightness can be individually changed for each subject. That is, since the eye size and skin color are different for each user, it is possible to improve the satisfaction of each user who is the subject by selecting the optimal eye size and brightness for each subject.

  In addition, when individually recognizing the subject one by one, it is also possible to detect the face of a person in the captured image and individually recognize the subject one by one. In addition, after shooting, a composite image for shooting may be selected, and then the eye size and brightness may be selected. In this way, when the optimal eye size and brightness for the user differ depending on the color of the composite image for shooting, etc. (for example, the brightness of the skin is changed depending on the color of the composite image for shooting) The user may be able to provide a photographed composite image with a better finish to the user.

  In the above description, a photographic composite image is selected as the background of the subject of the photographic image, and editing processing (step S6 in FIG. 9) is performed on the photographic composite image obtained by synthesizing the selected photographic composite image. ) Is performed. By the way, the photo sticker 1 can select a photographic composite image as the foreground of the subject of the photographic image, and obtain a photographic composite image in which the photographic composite image is synthesized with the foreground and background of the subject of the photographic image. be able to.

  In this way, in the composite image obtained by combining the composite image for photographing with the foreground of the subject of the photographed image, the foreground image is composited within a range that does not interfere with the composite such as the edge or the lower part of the image. It is assumed that some users may feel that the foreground is an obstacle. Therefore, the photo sticker 1 can edit the shooting composition image selected as the foreground by the editing process.

  With reference to FIGS. 24 to 32, processing for editing a shooting composition image selected in image processing of a shot image in editing processing will be described.

  FIG. 24 shows an example of a captured image editing screen displayed on the tablet built-in monitor 131 in the editing process.

  The captured image editing screen is basically configured by arranging screens having the same configuration in a symmetrical arrangement on the left and right. For example, a user standing on the left side with respect to the tablet built-in monitor 131 edits a captured image in the left half of the editing screen using the touch pen 132-A, and a user standing on the right side stands on the left side. In parallel with editing by the user, the photographed image is edited in the right half of the editing screen using the touch pen 132-B.

  An image selection unit 413L is formed above the left side of the editing screen. Here, six photographed images selected as editing targets after photographing processing are reduced and displayed. The captured image selected from the image selection unit 413L is enlarged and displayed on the editing target image display unit 411L formed below the image selection unit 413L. In the example of FIG. 24, among the six photographed images, the leftmost photographed image is selected by the cursor C as an object to be edited, and the characters “Doodle” are displayed superimposed on the image. In addition, the photographed image at the right end is selected by the cursor C ', and the characters "Doodle" are displayed over the image. The fact that the character “Doodle” is selected and displayed on the image by the cursor C ′ in the image selection unit 413L is that the photographed image at the right end of the six photographed images is to be edited on the right side of the editing screen. This means that the same image as that cannot be selected for editing on the left side.

  Similarly, an image selection unit 413R is provided above the right side of the editing screen, and the same six images as the images displayed on the image selection unit 413L are displayed in the same arrangement on the image selection unit 413R. In the image selection unit 413R, the photographed image at the right end among the six photographed images is selected by the cursor C 'as an object to be edited, and the characters "Doodle" are displayed over the image. In addition, the photographed image at the left end is selected by the cursor C, and the characters “Doodle” are displayed over the image. The fact that the character “Doodle” is selected and displayed on the image by the cursor C in the image selection unit 413R is that the photographed image at the left end of the six photographed images is the object to be edited on the left side of the editing screen. This means that the same image as that cannot be selected for editing on the right side. That is, on the editing screen, an image selected as an editing target on one of the left and right screens cannot be selected as an editing target on the other screen.

A content palette 412L is displayed below the edit target image display unit 411L. Tabs of various editing tools such as a pen tool selected when inputting a handwritten image and a stamp tool selected when inputting a stamp image are displayed on the content palette 412L. By selecting the tab, The editing tools can be switched. The user can select an editing tool from the content palette 412L, and input characters, patterns, and the like to the captured image to be edited displayed on the editing target image display unit 411L.

  A button display unit 414L on which various buttons are displayed is displayed on the right side of the edit target image display unit 411L. In the example of FIG. 24, an end button that is operated when editing of a captured image is finished, an eraser button that is used when part of an image input to the edit target image display unit 411L is partially erased, and editing is restarted from the beginning. Buttons that are operated at times, buttons that are operated when returning to the previous set, buttons that are operated when returning the editing contents to the state after one operation, and returning the editing contents to the state before one operation Buttons that are sometimes operated are displayed on the button display unit 414L.

  On the right side of the editing screen, an editing target image display unit 411R, a content palette 412R, an image corresponding to the editing target image display unit 411L, the content palette 412L, the image selection unit 413L, and the button display unit 414L displayed on the left side. A selection unit 413R and a button display unit 414R are displayed. In the upper center of the editing screen, the remaining time (Time in the figure) of the time limit assigned to the editing work and a GUI used for selecting BGM are displayed. The editing unit 209 receives an editing operation on such an editing screen and edits the captured image.

  Further, a foreground deletion button 415 and a foreground movement button 416 are displayed on the upper left of the editing screen. The foreground erasing button 415 is operated when erasing the foreground synthesized with the photographed image displayed on the edit target image display unit 411L. The foreground movement button 416 is operated when moving the foreground combined with the captured image displayed on the editing target image display unit 411L.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 24, in the photographed image displayed on the editing target image display unit 411L, the photographing composition image 421 selected as the foreground in the image processing of the photographed image is combined so as to hide the subject. Sometimes.

  When such a captured image is displayed on the editing target image display unit 411L and the user operates the foreground deletion button 415, the composite image for shooting 421 is deleted, and the subject is displayed as shown in FIG. A captured image that is not hidden in the foreground is displayed on the edit target image display unit 411L.

  24, when the user operates the foreground movement button 416 while the captured image as shown in FIG. 24 is displayed on the editing target image display unit 411L, the tablet built-in monitor 131 operates the captured composite image 421. Can be accepted. When the user moves the touch position while touching the shooting composition image 421 with the touch pen 132A, the shooting composition image 421 is moved (dragged) according to the movement of the touch position. As a result, for example, as shown in FIG. 26, the photographic composition image 421 is moved.

  For example, when a plurality of foregrounds are arranged in the captured image displayed on the edit target image display unit 411L, each content can be deleted or moved using the content palette 412L.

  For example, FIG. 27 shows a shooting composition image 422 having a frame formed by a plurality of stars, a white heart-shaped shooting composition image 423, and a hatched heart-shaped shooting composition image. An example of an editing screen in which a photographed image obtained by combining 424 as a foreground is displayed on the editing target image display unit 411L is shown.

  At this time, when the user operates the foreground erasing button 415, as shown in FIG. 28, the content palette 412L has buttons 431 for erasing the hatched heart-shaped shooting composition image 424, A button 432 for erasing the white heart-shaped composite image for photographing 423, a button 433 for erasing the composite image for photographing 422 having a frame formed by a plurality of stars, and all the foreground image are erased. Button 434 is displayed.

  In the example of FIG. 28, a state in which the button 431 surrounded by a thick frame is operated by the user is shown, and from the captured image displayed on the editing target image display unit 411L according to the operation on the button 431. The hatched synthetic image 424 for shooting (FIG. 27) is deleted.

  In addition, when a user operates the foreground movement button 416 while a captured image as shown in FIG. 27 is displayed on the editing target image display unit 411L, the content palette 412L is hatched as shown in FIG. A frame is formed by a button 441 for moving the heart-shaped composite image for shooting 424 to which the image is applied, a button 442 for moving the white heart-shaped composite image for shooting 423, and a plurality of stars. Then, a button 443 for moving the shooting composition image 422 is displayed.

  In the example of FIG. 29, a state in which the button 442 surrounded by a thick frame is operated by the user is shown. After the user operates the button 442, the user drags the composite image 423 for shooting. Then, the photographic composition image 423 moves as shown in the edit target image display unit 411L.

  Note that a transparent foreground image or the like is also prepared, and it is not necessary to move such a foreground image. Therefore, the transparent foreground image is not displayed on the content palette 412L and is not moved.

  Further, for example, a tab for performing an operation on the foreground is provided in the content palette 412L, and a button for performing an operation on the foreground is displayed on the content palette 412L when an operation for selecting the tab is performed. Also good.

  That is, FIG. 30 shows a content palette 412L in a state where a tab for performing an operation on the foreground is selected. The content palette 412L has a hatched heart-shaped composite image for shooting 424. Button 451 for designating, a button 452 for designating a white heart-shaped composite image for shooting 423, a button 453 for specifying a composite image for shooting 422 in which a frame is formed by a plurality of stars, and erasing all foregrounds. A button 454 that is operated when the designated foreground is deleted, a button 456 that is operated when the designated foreground is moved, and a display area 457 that displays an image before the operation. Is displayed.

  For example, after the user designates the foreground with the button 451, the button 452, or the button 453, the user can delete or move the foreground with the button 455 or the button 456. Further, all foregrounds can be erased by the button 454.

  For example, in FIG. 31, a button 451 surrounded by a thick line is designated, and after the hatched heart-shaped composite image for photography 424 is designated by the button 451, an operation on the button 455 is performed. Thus, the state where the photographic composition image 424 is erased is shown. At this time, the display area 457 displays an image before the photographic composition image 424 is deleted.

  Also, for example, in FIG. 32, a button 452 surrounded by a thick line is designated, and after the white heart-shaped image for composition for photographing 423 is designated by the button 452, an operation on the button 456 is performed. A state in which the photographic composition image 423 is moved is shown. At this time, the display area 457 displays an image before the shooting-use composition image 423 is moved.

  As described above, in the photo sticker 1, during editing, an operation can be performed on a photographic composite image synthesized as a foreground image on a photographic composite image, and the photographic composite image can be deleted or moved. can do.

  As a result, for example, the photo sticker 1 does not select a composite image for shooting before shooting. Therefore, the composite image for shooting is not combined in the live view display at the time of shooting. Even if the foreground image is synthesized so as to hide the subject when synthesized with the image for use, the foreground image can be erased or moved. Therefore, the photo sticker 1 can provide a good-looking printed image in which the subject is not disturbed by the foreground image, and can improve the satisfaction of the user.

  In addition, when an image that is not prepared as an image for composition for editing provided as an image to be composed at the time of editing is used as a composition image for photographing, the composition image for photographing is edited. It can be operated in the same way as the image for image synthesis. Thereby, the photo sticker 1 can provide a user with a variety of editing.
