Next, the operation of the photo game machine 1 will be described. Each process described below is performed by the CPU 103 shown in FIG. 5 executing a control program.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the overall operation of the photographing game machine 1. First, the photography amusement machine 1 performs a preliminary customer service process for accepting the start of play (step S10). Next, the photographing amusement machine 1 performs a photographing process for each play received in the pre-service processing (step S).
20). Thereafter, the photographing game machine 1 performs an image editing process on the photographic image generated by the photographing process (step S30). Finally, the photographing and amusement machine 1 performs post-service processing on the photograph image after the image editing processing (step S40). Hereinafter, each process will be described in detail.

<2.1. Pre-service processing>
First, the pre-service processing (step S10) will be described. FIG. 7 is a flowchart of the pre-service processing.

The CPU 103 displays a demonstration screen representing a demonstration video of the play on the reception display 31 (step S111). The CPU 103 continues to display the demonstration screen until the user inserts one play coin into the insertion slot 32 (Step S112: No).
At this time, the CPU 103 transmits BGM or the like corresponding to the demonstration video to the speaker 33.
May be output.

When one coin is inserted into the coin insertion slot 32, information indicating that the coin has been inserted is transmitted from the coin control unit 112 (see FIG. 5) to the computer 101 via the control board 102.
Is output to The CPU 103 increments the coin count by one for each piece of information from the coin control unit 112. When the coin count reaches one play, the CPU 103
It is determined that the coins for the play have been accepted (step S112: Yes), the play is started, and the processing from step S113 is performed.

The CPU 103 displays the shooting course selection screen 110 illustrated in FIG.
Is displayed, and the selection of the photographing course by the user is accepted (step S113). At this time, the CPU 103 may output a voice prompting the selection of the shooting course from the speaker 33.

In the present embodiment, two photographing courses (shark course and round course) are prepared.
As shown in FIG. 8, on the shooting course selection screen 110, an icon 110a described as “Short course” and an icon 110b described as “Mal course” are displayed.

"Shikaku course" has three angles (up, whole body from above,
This is a photographing course that provides a photographic image obtained by trimming a photographed rectangular image at a predetermined ratio. Marcourse is a shooting course that provides two angles (up, whole body from top to bottom) as angles at the time of shooting, and provides a photographic image that represents a captured rectangular image in a circular shape by mask processing or the like. is there.

When the angle is “up”, the vertical angle and the focal length of the camera 21 are controlled to predetermined angles and focal lengths corresponding to the “up”, and a part of the user's face and upper body is photographed. When the angle is “from above”, the vertical angle and the focal length of the camera 21 are controlled to predetermined angles and focal lengths corresponding to “from above” to photograph the entire body of the user. In the “whole body photographing from above”, an image is obtained as if photographed from an obliquely upward direction of the user. In the case of photographing with the angle “whole body front”, the vertical angle and the focal length of the camera 21 are controlled to predetermined angles corresponding to “whole body front”, and the whole body of the user is photographed. In "frontal whole body photography",
An image is obtained as if the image was taken from the front of the user. A specific description of the vertical angle and the focal length of the camera 21 according to the angle will be described later.

Hereinafter, shooting at an angle of "up" is referred to as up shooting, shooting at an angle of "whole body" is referred to as whole body shooting, and shooting at an angle of "frontal whole body" is referred to as frontal whole body shooting. Also,
An image taken in up-shooting is referred to as an up image, an image taken in whole-body imaging from above is referred to as a first whole-body image, and a photographic image taken in frontal-body imaging is referred to as a second whole-body image.

In the present embodiment, the angle of “frontal whole body” cannot be selected in the case of “mal course”. The photographic image generated in the case of Marcos has a circular shape. In a circular photographic image obtained by frontal whole body photography, the range in which the subject is captured is vertically long, and blank spaces are formed on the left and right sides of the subject. The ratio occupied by the blank portion is likely to be larger than in the case of “up shooting” or “whole body shooting”. If the ratio occupied by the margin becomes large, the appearance of the circular photographic image becomes poorly balanced. Therefore, in the present embodiment, in the case of "Malcose", the angle of "Front whole body" is not prepared, and The number of angles is smaller than "Course".

The user touches one of the icons to select a shooting course. Here, it is assumed that the zigzag course has been selected. After the shooting course is selected in step S113, the CPU 103 performs an angle setting process for receiving an angle selection at the time of shooting (step S114).

FIG. 9A is a diagram illustrating an operation flow of the angle setting process. When the zigzag course is selected as the photographing course (step S1141: Yes), the CPU 103 displays the angle selection screen 120 shown in FIG. 10A (step S1142).

In the present embodiment, for example, six shots are performed for both the “Shikaku course” and the “Marcourse”. The CPU 103 accepts selection of an angle in each of the six shootings on the angle selection screen 120 (step S1143).

On the angle selection screen 120, set angle icons 121 (121a to 121c) corresponding to three set angles 1 to 3 in which angles of the six shootings are set in advance,
Individual angle icons 122 (122a to 122c) corresponding to angles of "up", "whole body from above", and "front whole body" are displayed. The angle selection screen 120 is
It has an angle information display area 123 (123a to 123f) for displaying a list of angle information indicating each angle of 1 to 6 shots.

For the set angle icon 121a, the phrase "up 4 + frontal whole body 2" is displayed,
A set angle 1 in which “up” four times and “frontal whole body” two times is associated.

The set angle icon 121b displays the words “up 3 + upper body 3”, and is associated with a set angle 2 in which “up” 3 times and “upper body 3 times” are combined. .

The word “up 6” is displayed on the set angle icon 121c, and “up” is displayed.
Is associated with a set angle 3 in which 6 times are combined.

In addition, the word “up” and the model image that has been “up shot” are displayed on the individual angle icon 122a, and the “up” angle is associated with the word.

The individual angle icon 122b includes the words “whole body from above” and “whole body shot from above”.
Is displayed, and the angle of “whole body from above” is associated.

The individual angle icon 122c displays the wording of “frontal whole body” and a model image obtained by performing “frontal whole body photography”, and is associated with the “frontal whole body” angle.

The user touches the set angle icon 121 or the individual angle icon 122, and sequentially selects the angles of each of the 1 to 6 shots. That is, the angle information display area 12
3a is selected in order from the angle to be displayed. In the state where the angle is not selected, as shown in FIG. 10A, the phrase “Please select a favorite angle” is displayed in the angle information display area 12.
3 is displayed.

For example, when the user selects the set angle icon 121, the angle information display area 123 (123a to 123f) displays the angle information in accordance with the combination of the set angle corresponding to the selected set angle icon 121. Is displayed.

In addition, for example, when individually selecting each of the angles for six shots, the user touches one of the individual angle icons 122a to 122c. When the individual angle icon 122 is touched by the user, the angle information indicating the angle corresponding to the selected individual angle icon 122 is displayed in one angle information display area 123, and a cancel button is displayed below the angle information. 125 is displayed. The angle information display area 12
3 (123a to 123f), the cancel button 125 may be always displayed, and when the angle information is displayed in the angle information display area 123 (123a to 123f), the operation of the cancel button 125 may be accepted.

Note that the user can cancel the selection of the angle information by touching the cancel button 125 displayed below the angle information displayed in the angle information display area 123. When the user touches the cancel button 125 below any one of the angle information display areas 123 after selecting any one of the set angles, the selection of the angle displayed in the angle information display area 123 is released. can do. Then, by touching any of the individual angle icons, the angle corresponding to the selected individual angle icon can be set in place of the deselected angle.

The user touches the OK button 124 after selecting each angle of the six shootings.
When all angles are selected and the OK button 124 is touched (step S1144: Yes), the CPU 103 stores the six pieces of angle information in the memory 105 and displays the angle confirmation screen 130 shown in FIG. 10B.

On the angle confirmation screen 130, the angle information indicating the six angles selected in step S1143 is rearranged according to a predetermined priority order among the angles of "up,""whole body from top," and "front body." The photographing order angle display area 131 (131a to 131)
f) is displayed. Also, in the shooting order angle display area 131 (131a to 131f),
In addition to the angle information, the shooting order ((1) to (6)) at that angle is displayed. In the present embodiment, the six pieces of angle information are rearranged in the order of “up”, “whole body from above”, and “whole body in front”, and are displayed in the shooting order angle display area 131.

For example, on the angle selection screen 120, "frontal whole body" is displayed in the angle information display area 123a, "whole body" is displayed in the angle information display areas 123b and 123c, "up" is displayed in the angle information display areas 123d and 123e, and the angle information display area 123f is displayed. Is displayed, the angle confirmation screen 130 is displayed as follows.
That is, in the angle confirmation screen 130, the photographing order angle display areas 131a, 131b
, The angle information indicating “upper body” in the shooting order angle display areas 131c and 131d, and “frontal whole body” in the shooting order angle display areas 131e and 131f. That is, in this case, the first and second shots are “up shots”, the 3 to 4 shots are “full body shot from above”, and the 5 to 6 shots are “frontal shots”.

When a set angle is selected on the angle selection screen 120, an angle confirmation screen 130 shown in FIG. 10B that displays angle information indicating each angle of the selected set angle and a shooting order may be displayed in a pop-up manner. .

The user touches the OK button 132 when not changing the combination of angles displayed in the shooting order angle display area 131 of the angle confirmation screen 130, and cancels when changing the displayed combination of angles. Touch the button 133.

When the OK button 132 is touched (step S1146: No)
The angle information indicating the selected angle is stored in the memory 105 in association with the number of images captured at that angle (step S1147). If the cancel button 133 has been touched (step S1146: Yes), the process returns to step S1143, and the selection of an angle on the angle selection screen 120 is accepted.

Returning to FIG. 9A, the description will be continued. If six angles have not been selected on the angle selection screen 120 and the predetermined time has not elapsed (step S1144: No, step S1148: No), the process returns to step S1143, and selection of an angle is accepted. On the other hand, if the predetermined time has elapsed in step S1148 (step S114
8: Yes), the angle information indicating each angle selected within a predetermined time (hereinafter, selected angle information) is stored in the memory 105. Then, a process of automatically setting an angle with respect to the shooting whose angle has not been selected (hereinafter, an unselected shot) (hereinafter, an automatic setting process) is performed (step S1149).

FIG. 9B is a diagram illustrating an operation flow of the automatic setting process in step S1149. C
If there is an unselected shot (step S1200: Yes), that is, if the number of selected angle information is less than 6, the PU 103 refers to the selected angle information stored in the memory 105 and sets the angle of “up”. The number (hereinafter, the number of up angles) is counted (step S1201). When the number of up angles is less than 4 (step S1202: Yes), the CPU 103 sets “up” as an angle for one unselected shot, and stores the angle information in the memory 105 as selected angle information. . (Step S1203). The CPU 103 further determines that there is an unselected shot (step S12).
00: Yes), the process of step S1203 is performed until the number of up angles in the selected angle information becomes four.

In addition, when there is an unselected shot and the number of up angles is 4 or more (Step S1202: No), the CPU 103 refers to the selected angle information stored in the memory 105 and determines the number of angles of “frontal whole body”. (Hereinafter referred to as the number of frontal whole body angles)
Step S1204). When the number of front whole body angles is less than 2 (step S120)
5: Yes), “frontal whole body” is set as an angle for one unselected shot, and the angle information is stored in the memory 105 as selected angle information (step S120).
6). The CPU 103 further determines that there is an unselected shot (step S1200: Ye
s) Step S120 until the number of front whole body angles in the selected angle information becomes two
6 is performed.

That is, for example, in step S1146, when the predetermined time has elapsed while three “up” angles are selected, the automatic setting process is performed on three unselected shots. In this case, an “up” angle is set for one unselected shot, and a “frontal whole body” angle is set for the remaining two unselected shots. Further, for example, when a predetermined time has elapsed in a state where five “up” angles are selected, the “frontal whole body” angle is set for one unselected shot. Also, for example, one "
When the predetermined time has elapsed with the angle of “whole body from above” selected, an “up” angle is set for four unselected shots, and a “frontal whole body” angle is set for the remaining one unselected shot. Angle is set.

As described above, in the present embodiment, based on the angle selected by the user, the combination of all six angles is similar to the set angle 1 including “up” four times and “frontal body” twice. Automatically set an angle for an unselected shot so that

In step S1204 of FIG. 9B, the number of whole body angles is counted from the top in the selected angle information (hereinafter, the number of whole body angles from the top) in the selected angle information. For example, “whole body from above” may be set. In short, in all shooting, it is only necessary to set an angle for an unselected shot so that the angle of “up” is higher than that of “whole body from above” and “whole body in front”.

The CPU 103 displays the angle information of the angle set in the automatic setting process in step S1149 in the angle information display area 123 corresponding to the unselected shot on the angle selection screen 120. Then, the CPU 103 stores in the memory 105 a total of six pieces of angle information including angle information indicating the angle selected by the user and angle information indicating the angle set in the automatic setting process.

Returning to FIG. 9A, the description will be continued. In step S1141, if the shooting course is not the “Shikaku course”, that is, if “maru course” is selected as the shooting course (step S1141: No), the CPU 103 displays the shooting number selection screen 140 shown in FIG. 10C. Then, the selection of the number of images to be taken for “whole body imaging from above” is accepted (step S1150).

The number-of-shots selection screen 140 is a screen for accepting selection of the number of shots for “whole-body shooting from above”. An icon 1 representing each of the number of shots 0 to 6 is displayed on the shot number selection screen 140.
41 is displayed.

The CPU 103 sets an angle of “up” for the remaining shooting in accordance with the number of shots selected in step S1150, and stores the number of times of “upper shooting” and “up shooting” in the memory 105, respectively. (Step S1151). In the case of "Marcos",
There are only two types of angles, “upper body” and “up”. Therefore, by selecting the number of shots of one of the angles, the number of shots of the other angle is automatically determined. In this example, the number of shots of “upper shooting” is determined by selecting the number of shots of “full-body shooting from above”. Therefore, in the case of a marcourse, it is not possible to individually select each angle of the six shootings.

Returning to FIG. 7, the description will be continued. After the angle setting process in step S114, the CPU 103 displays a selection screen (not shown) for selecting one of “two” or “three or more” on the reception display 31, and displays the selection number. The selection is accepted (S115). Here, the following description is based on the assumption that “two” has been selected as the number of photographers.

Subsequently, the CPU 103 displays a reflection selection screen (not shown) on the reception display 31, and receives selection of the reflection of the entire photographic image (step S116).

Next, the CPU 103 performs a background image selection process for receiving selection of a background image to be combined with each photographic image obtained by each of the six shootings (step S117).

FIG. 11A is a diagram illustrating an operation flow of the background image selection processing. The CPU 103 refers to the six pieces of angle information stored in the memory 105 in step S1147, and displays a background image selection screen corresponding to the angle information on the reception display 31. Then, the selection of the background image for each photographing is received (step S1171).

FIGS. 11B to 11D are schematic diagrams illustrating a background image selection screen displayed when “Shigaku course” is selected as the shooting course.

The background image selection screen 150 has an upper display area 150A and a lower display area 150B. In the upper display area 150A, a background type icon 151 (151a to 151c) indicating each of three background types (normal, design, and set) and a background image icon 152 indicating a background image are displayed. The lower display area 150B includes a selection area 153 (153a to 153a) for displaying a reduced image of the background image corresponding to the background image icon 152 selected for each shooting.
3f).

The background images stored in the HDD 104 are “normal”, “design”, “set”
There is a case where any one of the background types is set, and a case where none of the background types is set. The background image to which "normal" is set is configured by an image consisting of only colors. The background image to which "design" is set is configured by an image in which a pattern combining characters, designs, and the like is given. In addition, the background image for which “set” is set is configured by combining six background images including normal and design background images, or background images for which neither background type is set.

The background type icon 151a is associated with a “normal” background type, the background type icon 151b is associated with a “design” background type, and the background type icon 151c is associated with a “set” background type. ing. Note that, in FIG. 11B, the image represented by the background type icon 151a is hatched for convenience, but is actually an image composed of only colors.

FIG. 11B shows a background image selection screen 15 when the background type icon 151a is selected.
0 and FIG. 11C shows the background image selection screen 150 when the background type icon 151c is selected. 11D and 11E show the background image selection screen 150 when the background type icon 151b is selected.

In FIG. 11D and FIG. 11E, a background image icon 152b indicated by a broken-line frame P2 corresponds to a background image including an image in which a frame to be combined with the front of the subject is designed. An image obtained by combining the background image and the model image is displayed on the background image icon 152b. In order to make it easy to understand that the background image corresponding to the background image icon 152b includes an image arranged in front of the subject, in this example, an image obtained by combining the model image and the background image is displayed as the background image icon 152b. ing. The model image displayed on the background image icon 152b may be displayed as an animation. This background image icon 152
When b is selected, no model image is displayed in the selection area 153 (153a to 153f), and only a reduced image of the corresponding background image is displayed.

As described above, in the present embodiment, angles are set for each of the 1 to 6 shots. Because the position and shooting range of the subject in the photographic image differ depending on the angle, depending on the pattern applied to the background image, when the photographic image and the background image are combined, the pattern of the background image and the subject may unnaturally overlap. In some cases, it may cause discomfort. Therefore, in the present embodiment, for each of the background types “design” and “set” except for “normal”, the background image corresponding to each angle of “up”, “whole body from above”, and “frontal whole body” is displayed. It is stored in the HDD 104 in advance. The background image icon 152b represents the same image as the one background image, and the background type and angle corresponding to the background image are stored in the HDD 104 in association with the data of the background image. Although the design of the background image in the present embodiment differs depending on the angle, the ratio of the length and width of the background image of all angles is the same.

For example, the background image selection screen 150 shown in FIGS. 11D and 11E displays a background image icon 152b in which a background image whose background type is “design” is displayed. The background image icon 152b in FIG. 11D corresponds to an angle of “up”, and the background image icon 152b in FIG. 11E corresponds to an angle of “whole body from above”.

Specifically, for example, the background image icon 152b of the dashed frame P1 in FIGS. 11D and 11E
As shown in FIG. 11, the background image corresponding to the background image icon 152b has a similar pattern, but the background image corresponding to the background image icon 152b shown in FIG.
Are designed more three-dimensionally than the background image of the background image icon 152b shown in FIG. When the image is taken at an angle of “whole body from above”, the image from the head to the foot of the subject is taken. For this reason, the background image corresponding to “whole body from above” is higher than the background image corresponding to “up” so that the subject appears to be standing on a floor or the like when the photographic image and the background image are combined. Are also represented three-dimensionally. Although not shown, the background image corresponding to “frontal whole body” is photographed from the head to the foot of the subject similarly to “top-to-whole body”, but the angle at which “subject-to-whole body” is photographed is different Therefore, a design with a three-dimensional effect different from the background image of “whole body from above” is made. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the background type is “design” and “set”, the background image and the background image icon 152 that have been designed in accordance with “up”, and “full body from above” and “ A background image and a background image icon 152 each having a design corresponding to the “front whole body” are prepared.

The CPU 103 rearranges the angle information for each of the six images stored in the memory 105 in step S1147 in the order of “up”, “whole body from top”, “whole body in front”, and in the order of the rearranged angle information, Is displayed in the upper display area 150A. Therefore, when the background type icon 151a is selected,
A background image icon 152a associated with the “normal” background type is displayed. When the background type icon 151b or 151c is selected, the background image icon 152b or 152c corresponding to the angle information among the background image icons 152b or 152c associated with the “design” or “set” background type. 152c is displayed.

The user selects a background image for each shooting by selecting a background image icon 152 indicating a desired background image from among the background image icons 152 displayed on the background image selection screen 150. When the background image icon 152 is selected by the user, the CPU 103 displays a reduced image of the background image corresponding to the background image icon 152 in the lower display area 150B.
Are sequentially displayed in the selection area 153. Then, the background image icon 15 selected for each shooting
The identification information for identifying the background image corresponding to No. 2 is stored in the memory 105 (step S117).
2).

When the user touches the reduced image displayed in lower display area 150B, the CPU
103 deselects the background image corresponding to the reduced image, deletes the identification information of the background image from the memory 105, and selects the background image selection screen 150 based on the identification information in the memory 105.
Update the display of.

The CPU 103 determines whether a background image for all shootings has been selected (step S1173).
: No), and perform the processes in and after step S1171. Further, when the background images for all the shootings are selected (step S1173: Yes), the CPU 103 determines that the lower display area 150B
An OK button (not shown) is displayed on the screen to receive a selection as to whether or not to end the selection of the background image (step S1174).

When the user touches an OK button (not shown), the CPU 103 displays a background image confirmation screen on the reception display 31 (step S1175).

FIG. 11F is a schematic diagram illustrating a background image confirmation screen when a “set” background image is selected. On the background image confirmation screen 160, an image 161 obtained by enlarging the background image corresponding to the background image icon 152c selected by the user to a predetermined size is displayed. When the user changes the combination of the background images indicated by the image 161, the user presses the cancel button 1
Touch 63, and if not changing, touch the OK button 162.

When the OK button 162 is touched (step S1176: Yes)
When the display of the background image selection screen 150 ends and the cancel button 163 is touched (
Step S1176: No), and performs the processing of step S1171 and subsequent steps.

In the above-described example, the background image selection screen 150 in the case where the shooting course is the “short course”
However, in the case of “Marcos”, in step S1171, for example, FIG.
A background image selection screen 170 as shown in A to 12D is displayed. In the case of "Shikaku course", a rectangular background image icon 152 is displayed. In the case of "Maru course",
As shown in FIGS. 12A to 12D, circular background image icons 172 (172a to 172)
d) is displayed.

Like "Shikaku course", "Maru course" also has "Up" and "Whole body from above" as background images of "Design" and "Set" background types except "Normal". The background image corresponding to the angle and the background image icon 172 are stored in the HDD 104. On the background image selection screen 170, among the background image icons 172 corresponding to the background type,
A background image icon 172 corresponding to the angle information is displayed. In the case of "Marcos",
The background image selection processing is performed in the same manner as in the case of the “short course”.

Returning to FIG. 7, the description will be continued. When the selection of the background image by the user is completed, the CPU 103
Determines whether the shooting booth 2 is empty (step S118). If the shooting booth 2 is not empty (step S118: No), the CPU 103 causes the reception display 31 to display a standby screen (not shown) for urging the user to wait (step S119).
When the imaging booth 2 is empty (step S118: Yes), the CPU 103 causes the reception display 31 to display a guidance screen (not shown) for guiding the movement to the imaging booth 2 (not shown).
Step S120). At this time, the CPU 103 may output a voice for guiding the user to the shooting booth 2 from the speaker 33 together with the display of the guide screen.

<2.2. Shooting process>
Next, the photograph image generation processing (step S20) will be described. FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an operation flow of the photographing process.

The CPU 103 displays a shooting start screen (not shown) for guiding the start of shooting on the front display 22 in the shooting booth 2 (step S211). A shooting start button is displayed on the shooting start screen, and subsequent processing is started when the user touches the shooting start button.

In the present embodiment, the number of photographers selected in step S115 is “two”. Therefore, when the user touches the shooting start button, the CPU 103 displays a test shooting guide screen for guiding the start of the test shooting on the front display 22 and performs the test shooting (step S212).

FIG. 14 is a schematic view illustrating a test shooting guide screen. On the test shooting guide screen 200, two frame images 201A and 201B and a guidance 203 of "Please enter this frame and face forward" are displayed. Of the live video obtained by shooting the inside of the shooting booth 2 with the camera 21, the regions 202 A and 20 inside the frame images 201 A and 201 B on the test shooting guide screen 200.
An image portion corresponding to 2B is displayed in regions 202A and 202B.

Each of the frame images 201A and 201B has a rectangular shape according to the shooting range of the test shooting. In addition,
Also in the case where the shooting course is “Maru course”, rectangular frame images 201A and 201B are displayed. If the shooting range of the test shooting is a vertically long rectangular shape and a circular frame image is displayed according to the vertical width of the shooting range, the width of the frame image will be larger than the width of the shooting range, so the frame outside the shooting range No live video is displayed in the area within the image. When a circular frame image is displayed according to the horizontal width of the shooting range, the vertical width of the frame image becomes smaller than the vertical width of the shooting range, and the user is placed at a position away from the camera 21 so that the face fits within the frame image. Will move. Therefore, even in the case of the “marcourse”, the rectangular frame images 201A and 201B according to the photographing range are displayed so that the user can perform the test photographing without feeling uncomfortable. Further, when displaying a circular frame image, the user is conscious of trying to enter the circle, and the rectangular frame image 201 is displayed.
A, there is a possibility that the user may find it difficult to shoot as compared with A, 201B.

After a lapse of a predetermined time, the CPU 103 shoots once with the camera 21 and specifies image portions corresponding to the areas 202A and 202B from a photographic image (hereinafter, a test image) obtained by the test shooting. Then, a subject ID for identifying the subject is stored in the memory 105 in association with each specified image portion. The test image is used for selecting a face image, which will be described later, and for identifying a user who appears in the photographic image, and is not provided to the user.

In the present embodiment, the appearance of the face of the subject in the photographic image is changed according to the operation of the user.
Specifically, a plurality of predetermined eye sizes, pupil sizes, and face contours are added to the image portion of the subject's eye size, iris size, and face contour in the photographic image. Image processing is performed according to the correction pattern selected by the user from the correction patterns.

In this example, three types of correction patterns (hereinafter, individual correction patterns) are prepared in advance for each of the eye size, the iris size, and the face outline, and the eye size, the iris size, And three types of correction patterns (hereinafter, set correction patterns) combining the individual correction patterns of the face contour.

For example, the eye size individual correction patterns include three individual correction patterns “natural”, “recommended”, and “volume” having different eye sizes. In addition, the individual correction patterns for the size of the irises are different for natural, recommended, and volume.
There are three individual correction patterns. The individual correction patterns of the face outline include three individual correction patterns of “round”, “recommended”, and “hosoku” having different shapes of the face outline. Also, the set correction pattern includes three different combinations of individual correction patterns of eye size, iris size, and face contour, “face image 1”, “face image 2”, and “face image 3”. There is a set correction pattern.

In the image processing for the eye size, the size of the image area of the eye of the subject specified by the image recognition processing is enlarged at a rate according to the individual correction pattern. For example, when the individual correction pattern is “natural”, the eye size is corrected to an eye size substantially equal to the eye size of the subject. When the individual correction pattern is “recommended”, the eye size in the case of “natural” is m times (m> 1.0)
Correct the size of the enlarged eyes. When the individual correction pattern is “volume”, the eye size in the case of “natural” is corrected to an eye size enlarged n times (n> m).

In the image processing for the iris size, the ratio of the iris region to the iris region in the image region of the subject's eye specified by the image recognition process is corrected so as to be a ratio corresponding to the individual correction pattern. For example, when the individual correction pattern is “natural”, the iris region is corrected such that the ratio of the iris region is x (x> 1.0) times the left and right white regions with the iris therebetween. When the individual correction pattern is “recommended”, the iris region is corrected so that the ratio of the iris region becomes y (y> x) times the left and right white regions with the iris therebetween. If the individual correction pattern is
The “larger correction” means that the ratio of the iris region is z (z>y>
x) The iris region is corrected so as to be doubled.

In the image processing for the face outline, the shape of the outline of the face of the subject is corrected so as to have a shape corresponding to the individual correction pattern. For example, when the individual correction pattern is “round”, the correction is performed so that the shape becomes smaller than the contour of the face of the subject. When the individual correction pattern is “recommended”, the contour of the subject is corrected so that the chin line of the subject has a clear shape.
If the individual correction pattern is “slow”, the contour is corrected so that the width of the face of the subject is reduced and the entire face becomes a slim shape. When correcting the contour of the face, for example, the face region of the subject and the eyes, nose, and mouth in the face region are specified by image recognition processing, and the positional relationship between the eyes, nose, and mouth in the face region is determined. Identify the center in the face area. Then, the face area is adjusted so that various parameter values for adjusting the contour of the face, such as the vertical and horizontal lengths of the face area passing through the center and the ratio of the vertical and horizontal lengths, become values corresponding to the individual correction patterns. To correct the outline.

The CPU 103 sets all combinations of the individual correction patterns of the eye size, iris size, and face outline (3 × 3 ×
(3 = 27 patterns), and generate corrected images obtained by performing image processing on the three set correction patterns. Then, the generated correction image, the correction pattern applied when generating the correction image, and the subject ID are stored in the memory 105 in association with each other.

Returning to FIG. 13, the description will be continued. After the test photographing, the CPU 103 proceeds to step S1147.
Then, based on the angle information stored in the memory 105, the main photographing process of controlling the photographing direction and the focal length of the camera 21 to perform photographing is executed (step S213).

In the present embodiment, the height at which the camera 21 is installed cannot be changed, but the camera 21 is swung so that the shooting direction of the camera 21, that is, the angle of the camera 21 in the vertical direction can be changed vertically. It is installed as possible. The CPU 103 controls the vertical angle and the focal length of the camera 21 based on the angle information.

That is, in the case of “up shooting”, the optical axis of the camera 21 is inclined downward by the first angle from the reference line with the optical axis when the optical axis of the camera 21 is substantially parallel to the floor as a reference line. , The angle of the camera 21 is controlled. In the case of “up shooting”, the focal length of the camera 21 is controlled to be the first focal length so that the face of the subject is photographed at a predetermined size.

In the case of “frontal whole body photography”, the camera 21 is so photographed that the subject is photographed from the head to the toes.
Of the camera 21 is controlled such that the optical axis of the camera 21 is inclined downward by a second angle (first angle> second angle) from the reference line. That is, in the case of “frontal whole body photography”, the camera 21 is pivoted counterclockwise so that the optical axis is upward from the optical axis of the camera 21 in “up photography”, and the angle of the camera 21 is “up”. The angle is controlled to be smaller than the angle of the camera 21 for “photographing”. In addition, the focal length of the camera 21 is controlled to a second focal length (two focal lengths <first focal length) shorter than “up photographing”.

In the case of “full-body photography from above”, the focal length of the camera 21 is controlled to the second focal length similar to that of “frontal full-body photography”. Thus, the angle of the camera 21 is controlled so that the optical axis of the camera 21 is tilted downward from the reference line by a third angle (third angle> first angle> second angle). That is, in the case of “whole-body shooting from above”, the camera 21 is rotated clockwise so that the optical axis of the camera 21 in “frontal whole-body shooting” and the optical axis of the camera 21 in “up shooting” are downward. The camera 21 is swung and the angle of the camera 21 is controlled to be larger than the angles of the camera 21 for “frontal whole body photography” and “up photography”.

FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating an operation flow of the main photographing process in step S213. CPU103
Sorts the angle information for each of the six shots stored in the memory 105 in the order of "up", "whole body from above", and "frontal whole body". Then, each processing shown in FIG. 15 is performed based on the shooting angle information in the rearranged order. Note that in this example, since the “short course” is selected as the shooting course, the case of the “short course” will be described as an example.

When the angle information is “up” and the “up shooting” is the first time (step S2130: Yes, step S2131: Yes), the CPU 103 sets the angle and the focal length according to the “up shooting”. The camera 21 is controlled and a front display 22 is controlled.
A guidance screen for close-up photography is displayed (step S2132). Note that a guidance screen for up-shooting may be displayed on the front display 22 in parallel with the control of the camera 21 according to “up-shooting”.

FIGS. 16A to 16C are schematic diagrams illustrating screen transitions of the guidance screen for close-up photography. On the guidance screen, a guidance 211 describing the user's standing position in the close-up shooting, and a guidance 212 describing the words “Stand on the beauty line”
Is displayed.

FIG. 17 is a schematic diagram of the photographing booth 2 as viewed from above. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 17, a line A indicating a user's standing position at the time of close-up shooting is drawn in advance on a floor surface 25 provided on a rear housing 20B constituting the shooting booth 2. ing. The beauty line in the guidance 212 indicates this line A. Guidance 2 for "Up Shooting"
11 and 212 are displayed, and the user is guided to stand and photograph on the line A drawn on the floor surface 25.

After displaying the guidance screens (a) to (c) of FIG. 16A at regular intervals, the CPU 103 starts shooting with the camera 21 and displays a live video on the front display 22 (step S2133).

After displaying the live video, the CPU 103 captures the image data of the live video at a predetermined frame rate, and displays the up image data on which the chroma key processing has been performed on the front display 22 (step S2134).

If the angle information is “up” and “up shooting” is not the first time (step S2130: Yes, step S2131: No), the CPU 103 performs the processing of step S2133 and subsequent steps. That is, when the “up shooting” is performed for the second time or later, the live video is displayed on the front display 22 and shot after the previous “up shooting”.

Next, a process when the angle information is “whole body from above” will be described. CPU10
In the case where the angle information is “whole body from above” and “whole body shooting from above” is the first time (step S2135: Yes, S2136: Yes), the angle and focus corresponding to “whole body shooting from above” The camera 21 is controlled so as to be at the distance, and a guidance screen for whole body photographing is displayed on the front display 22 from above (step S2137). Note that a guidance screen for full-body imaging from above may be displayed on the front display 22 in parallel with the control of the camera 21 in accordance with “whole-body imaging from above”.

(A) to (c) of FIG. 16B are schematic diagrams illustrating screen transitions of the guidance screen for full-body imaging from above when the imaging course is the “short course”. As shown in (a) to (c) of FIG. 16B, the guidance screen includes an image image 220 in which the model is photographed at an angle of “whole body from above”, and an image image 220 below “image of whole body from above”. A line image 221 indicating the standing position of the user is displayed. In the guidance screens shown in FIGS. 16A and 16B, a shooting position guidance image 222 in which the phrase “please toe the“ line ”on the screen” is displayed below the line image 221. Is displayed. In addition, on the guidance screen illustrated in FIG. 16C, a pose guidance image 222 that guides a photographing pose in which the words “you can take a pretty picture when leaning forward” is displayed below the line image 221. .

In the case of “whole body photography from above”, it is desirable that the subject stand and be photographed at the position shown by the broken line B in FIG. 17 in the photographing booth 2. The line indicating the standing position of "full-body photography from above" is not drawn. When a line indicating the standing position of “whole body photography from above” is drawn on the floor surface 25 of the photographing booth 2, the line appears in the photographed image, and the chroma key process cannot be performed on the image portion of the line. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the line image 221 is displayed on the front display 22 to guide the user's standing position in whole body imaging from above.

Returning to FIG. 15, the description will be continued. After displaying the guidance screens (a) to (c) of FIG.
In 2, the live video and the line image 221 are displayed (step S2138). That is, as shown in FIG. 16C, an image of a live video image captured by the camera 21 is displayed on the front display 22 in an area inside the frame image 240 displayed at the same position as the image image 220. The line image 241 is located at a position overlapping the lower side of the image 240 or at a position in contact with the lower side.
Is displayed. The line image 241 corresponds to a position indicated by a broken line B in FIG. Thus, the user can move the toe so as to match the line image 241 while watching the live video, and can shoot at a shooting position suitable for “whole body shooting from above”.

After displaying the live video, the CPU 103 captures the image data of the live video at a predetermined frame rate, and displays the first whole body image data subjected to the chroma key processing on the front display 22.
(Step S2139).

If the angle information is “whole body from above” and “whole body imaging from above” is not the first time (step S2135: Yes, step S2136: No), the CPU 103
Performs the processing of step S2138 and subsequent steps. That is, when the “whole body imaging from above” is performed for the second time or later, the live image and the line image 241 are displayed on the front display 22 and imaged after the previous “whole body imaging from above”.

Next, a process when the angle information is “frontal whole body” will be described. CPU103
If the angle information is "frontal whole body" and "frontal whole body photography" is the first time (step S2135: No, S2141: Yes), the angle and focal length according to "frontal whole body photography" Then, the camera 21 is controlled, and a guidance screen for frontal whole body photographing is displayed on the front display 22 (step S2142).

(A) to (c) of FIG. 16D are schematic diagrams illustrating screen transitions of the guidance screen in frontal whole-body imaging when the imaging course is the “short course”. As shown in (a) to (c) of FIG. 16D, an image image 230 of the model photographed at an angle of “frontal whole body” is displayed on the guidance screen. On the guidance screen shown in (a) and (b) of FIG. 16D, a shooting position guide image 232 in which the word “Please go down to the rear!” Is displayed below the image image 230. . On the guidance screen shown in (c) of FIG. 16D, a pose guide image 232 is displayed below the image image 230, in which the phrase “You can take a good style by taking your foot straight” is displayed.

In the case of “frontal whole body photography”, it is desirable that the subject stand and photograph at the position shown by the broken line C in FIG. 17 in the photographing booth 2. The line indicating the standing position of "full-body imaging" is not drawn. As in the case of the above-mentioned "full-body imaging from above", when a line indicating the standing position of the "full-body imaging in front" is drawn on the floor surface 25 of the imaging booth 2, the line appears in the captured image, and the line appears. This is because the chroma key processing cannot be performed on the image portion. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the photographing position guide image 232 is displayed, and the user is guided to descend to the rearmost of the photographing booth 2.

Returning to FIG. 15, the description will be continued. The CPU 103 starts shooting with the camera 21 after displaying the guidance screens (a) to (c) of FIG.
In 2, the live video is displayed (step S2143).

After displaying the live image, the CPU 103 captures the image data of the live image at a predetermined frame rate, and transmits the second whole body image data subjected to the chroma key processing to the front display 22.
(Step S2144).

When the read angle information is “frontal whole body”, “frontal whole body photography”
Is not the first time (Step S2135: No, Step S2140: No), the CPU 1
In step 03, the processes in and after step S2142 are performed. That is, when the “frontal whole body imaging” is performed for the second time or later, live video is displayed on the front display 22 and imaged after the previous frontal whole body imaging.

In the above example, the case where the shooting course is “Shikaku course” has been described as an example. However, in the case of “Mal course”, the guidance screen in “Whole body shooting from above” is a rectangular image image 23.
Instead of 0, a circular image is displayed. Then, after the guidance screen is displayed, a circular frame image is displayed instead of the rectangular frame image 240, and a live image is displayed in an area inside the frame image. Below the circular frame image, an arc-shaped line image is displayed along the outer edge of the frame image at a position corresponding to the position indicated by the broken line B in FIG.

Referring back to FIG. 13, after the main photographing process in step S213, the CPU 103 determines whether or not the editing booth 4 is empty (step S214). If editing booth 4 is not empty (
(Step S214: No), the CPU 103 causes the front display 22 to display a standby screen (not shown) for urging the user to wait (step S215). If the editing booth 4 is empty (step S214: Yes), the CPU 103 causes the front display 22 to display a guidance screen (not shown) for guiding the movement to the editing booth 4 (step S216). Note that the CPU 103 may output a voice for guiding the user to the editing booth 4 from the speaker 450 together with the display of the guidance screen.

  <2.3. Image editing processing>

Next, the image editing process (Step S30) will be described. FIG. 18 is a flowchart of the image editing process. In the following description, for example, “Shikaku course” is selected as a photographing course in step S113, and two up images, two first whole body images, and two second whole body images are obtained by the photographing process in step S215. An example in which it is generated will be described.

The CPU 103 causes the editing display 411 (see FIG. 4) to display a standby screen (not shown) displaying a demonstration video or the like relating to image editing (step S311).

The user who moved from the shooting booth 2 to the editing booth 4 touches the standby screen with the touch pen 412 (FIG. 4).
Touch), the CPU 103 displays a face reflection selection screen for selecting the size of the eyes, the size of the iris, and the contour of the face on the editing display 411, and accepts the selection from the user (step). S312).

FIG. 19 is a schematic diagram illustrating a face reflection selection screen. On the left and right sides of the face reflection selection screen 300, preview areas 311A and 311B for displaying a corrected image for each subject ID stored in the memory 105 are provided. Also, next to each preview area,
Three icons 312a to 312c for selecting the size of the eyes, in which the letters "recommended" and "volume" are displayed, and the iris in which the letters "natural", "recommended", and "volume" are displayed Three icons 313a to 313c for selecting the size of the image, and three icons 314a to 314c for selecting the outline of the face, in which the characters "round", "recommended", and "hosoku" are displayed. Is done. At the top of each preview area, three icons 315a to 315c in which characters “face image 1”, “face image 2”, and “face image 3” are displayed.
Is displayed, and an OK button 316 is displayed below each preview area.

The icons 312a to 312c are associated with individual correction patterns of eye sizes of “natural”, “recommended”, and “volume”. Icons 313a to 313c are
The individual correction patterns of the iris size of “natural”, “recommended”, and “volume” are associated with each other. The icons 314a to 314c are associated with respective individual correction patterns of the outline of the face of “round”, “recommended”, and “hosoku”. Also, the icon 315a
315c is associated with each set correction pattern of “face image 1”, “face image 2”, and “face image 3”.

The user on the left side of the editing display 411 touches a desired icon from the icon group A arranged on the left side of the face image selection screen 300 to select the image of the user's own face in the photographic image. . Also, the user on the right side of the editing display 411,
The user touches a desired icon from the icon group B arranged on the right side of the face image selection screen 300, and selects the image of his / her own face in the photographic image.

For example, when individually selecting the eye size, iris size, and face outline correction pattern, the eye size icons 312a to 312c and the iris size icons 313a to 313 are selected.
3c, a desired icon is touched one by one from the icons 314a to 314c of the face outline. When selecting a correction pattern for the size of the eyes, the size of the iris, and the contour of the face as a set, one of the icons 315a to 315c is touched.

For example, when the icon of the icon group A on the left side of the face reflection selection screen 300 is touched, the CPU 103 corrects the correction pattern corresponding to the touched icon among the correction images of the subject ID corresponding to the preview area 311A. Is stored in the memory 10
5 and the corrected image is displayed in the preview area 311A. The user can confirm the image of the face taken on the photographic image by using the corrected image displayed in the preview area 311A.

When the user touches the OK button 316, the CPU 103 ends the face image selection screen 300, and stores the selected face image correction pattern in the memory 105 in association with the subject ID.

Returning to FIG. 18, after selecting the face image, the CPU 103 displays a screen (not shown) for selecting the brightness of the photographic image on the editing display 411 and accepts the selection by the user.
(Step S313).

The CPU 103 compares the two pieces of up image data generated in step S213 with the two pieces of first image data.
The whole-body image data and the two pieces of second-body image data are subjected to image processing according to the correction pattern of the face image selected in step S312 and image processing according to the brightness selected in step S313. Then, the CPU 103 executes the two up images after the image processing and the two first images.
Each image of the whole body image and the two pieces of second whole body image data is trimmed to a predetermined image size such that the ratio of the length to the width becomes a predetermined ratio, and six rectangular photographic images are generated. (Step S314).

In the present embodiment, when the shooting course is the “shark course”, the rectangular image obtained by any of “up shooting”, “whole body shooting from above”, and “frontal whole body shooting” also has vertical and horizontal images. Trimming is performed so that the ratios are all the same (for example, vertical: horizontal = 1: 1.4). In the case where the shooting course is the “mal course”, the rectangular image obtained by any of the “up shooting” and the “whole body shooting” has a vertical to horizontal ratio of 1: 1. And the image is displayed in a circular shape by mask processing or the like.

After step S314, the CPU 103 displays a name input screen for inputting the name of the user on the editing display 411, and accepts the input of the name by the user (step S315).

Subsequently, after step S315, the CPU 103 displays an editing screen on the editing display 411 and starts graffiti processing (editing processing) (step S316).

FIG. 20A is a schematic diagram illustrating an editing screen displayed on the editing display 411 when the photographing course is the “short course”. As shown in FIG. 20A, the edit screen 410 has an edit area 4110, a thumbnail image display area 4120, an edit tool display area 4130, and an END button 4140 on the left and right sides of the edit screen, respectively.

Hereinafter, the editing area 4110, the thumbnail image display area 4120, and the editing tool display area 4130 arranged on the left side will be mainly described. However, the editing area 4110, the thumbnail image display area 4120, and the editing tool display area 4130 arranged on the right side are also described. Same as on the left.

In the thumbnail image display area 4120, thumbnail images reduced in size while maintaining the aspect ratio of each of the six photographic images generated in step S314 are displayed in the shooting order.

In the editing area 4110, in the initial state, a thumbnail image in the thumbnail image display area 4120 is combined with a photographic image of one thumbnail image and a background image corresponding to the photographic image is displayed.

The user on the left side of the editing screen 410 uses the left touch pen 412 (see FIG. 4) to edit the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4110 on the left side. Edit screen 410
Using the right touch pen 412 (see FIG. 4), the user on the right side edits the photographic image displayed in the editing area 4110 on the right side.

When the user on the left side of the editing screen 410 touches any of the thumbnail images displayed in the thumbnail image display area 4120 with the touch pen 412, the CPU 103 displays a photo image corresponding to the thumbnail image touched with the touch pen 412. It is displayed in the editing area 4110. In the thumbnail image display area 4120 on the left, the editing area 4 on the right
In the display area of the thumbnail image corresponding to the photographic image displayed at 110, the characters "in scribble" are displayed.

The user on the left side of the editing screen 410 selects a desired editing image 4130a from the editing images 4130a displayed in the editing tool display area 4130 with the touch pen 412, and displays the selected editing image 4130a in the editing area. Edit the photo image by placing it on the photo image displayed at 4110.

When the user finishes graffiti on the photo image displayed in the editing area 4110, the user selects another thumbnail image in the thumbnail image display area 4120 and switches the display of the photo image in the editing area 4110. The user touches the END button 4140 after finishing the graffiti for all the photographic images.

In the above description, the editing screen 410 in the case where the shooting course is “Shikaku course” is exemplified. However, when the shooting course is “Maru course”, the editing screen shown in FIG. 20B is displayed on the editing display 411. Is done.

As shown in FIG. 20B, the editing screen 420 in the case of “Malcourse” has a thumbnail image in which a circular editing area 421 and a circular thumbnail image are displayed on the left and right sides of the editing screen, respectively. It has a display area 422 and an editing tool display area 423 in which a circular editing image 423a is displayed. In the case of “Marcos”, a circular photo image is generated in step S314, and thus, similarly to the photo image, a circular thumbnail image, a circular edit area 421, and a circular edit image 423a. Are displayed on the edit screen 420.

Returning to FIG. 18, the CPU 103 terminates the graffiti processing in step S316 by touching the END button 4140 by the user, and associates the edited image selected in the graffiti processing with each of the six photographic images with the photographic image. Stored in the memory 105.

Next, the CPU 103 displays a sheet layout selection screen on the editing display 411, and receives selection of a sheet layout by the user (step S317).

FIG. 21A is a schematic diagram illustrating a sheet layout selection screen in a case where the shooting course is the “short course”. As shown in FIG. 21A, on the left and right sides of the sheet layout selection screen 430, four types of sheet layouts 431a to 431d indicating the layout of the photographic images on the sticker paper and the selected sheet layout are predetermined. A preview image 432 enlarged to the size is displayed.

The six photographic images generated in step S314 have the same ratio between the vertical and horizontal lengths. Therefore, the ratio of the vertical and horizontal lengths of the arrangement area of the photographic image in the sheet layout is the same as the photographic image.

If the shooting course is the “multi course”, a sheet layout selection screen 430 shown in FIG. 21B is displayed on the editing display 411. As shown in FIG. 21B, in the case of “Marcos”, since a circular photographic image is generated, the sheet layouts 431 a to 431 a to 4
The arrangement area 4312 of the photographic image in 31d is also circular.

Subsequently, the CPU 103 generates a sheet image to be printed on a sticker based on the sheet layout selected by the user (step S318). The sheet image is displayed in step S3
The synthesized image obtained by synthesizing the six photo images generated in step S14, the background image corresponding to each photo image selected in step S117, and the edited image corresponding to each photo image selected in step S316 is Is generated by being arranged in a predetermined arrangement area in the selected sheet layout.

Returning to FIG. 18, the CPU 103 determines whether or not the post-service unit 5 is vacant (step S319). If the post-service unit 5 is not vacant (step S319: No), the CPU 1
03 displays a standby screen (not shown) for urging the user to wait on the editing display 411 (step S320). When the post-service part 5 is vacant (step S319: Y
es), the CPU 103 transmits the sheet image generated in step S318 to the printer 650, and starts printing (step S321). Further, the CPU 103 causes the editing display 411 to display a guidance screen (not shown) for guiding the user to the customer service unit 5 after the fact (step S322). The CPU 103 may cause the speaker 413 to output a voice for guiding the user to the customer service unit 5 after the guidance screen is displayed.

<2.4. Post-service processing>
Next, the post-service processing (step S40) will be described. FIG. 22 is a flowchart of the post-service processing.

The CPU 103 causes the reception display 51 to display a start screen. When the user who has moved from the editing booth 4 touches the start screen with a finger, an image transmission process is started (step S411). Further, the CPU 103 outputs sound necessary for the operation to the speaker 53.

When the image transmission process is started, the CPU 103 displays an image selection screen for selecting an image to be transmitted to the user's mobile phone on the reception display 51 for each user. Thereafter, in order to send a notification mail describing a URL for obtaining the transmission target image selected by the user to the user, an input screen (not shown) for urging the user to input a mail address is displayed on the reception display 51 ( (See FIG. 4). Specifically, the CPU 103 first displays an image selection screen, accepts selection of a transmission image by the first user, and then accepts an input of the user's mail address. After accepting the input of the e-mail address of the first user, the CPU 103 displays an image selection screen and accepts the selection of the transmission target image of the second user, and subsequently, the e-mail address of the second user Accept the input of.

When the e-mail address of each user is input on the input screen, the CPU 103 transmits the e-mail address of each user, information of the transmission target image selected for each user, and step S3.
A server (not shown) that combines the background image selected in step S117 and the edited image selected in step S316 with respect to each of the six photo images generated in step S14. Send to The server uses the e-mail address of each user transmitted from the photography amusement machine 1 as a destination to acquire image data of the transmission target image of each user from the image data transmitted from the photography amusement machine 1. A notification mail in which the URL of is sent is transmitted.

Each user can receive the notification mail from the server with each mobile phone, and access the URL described in the notification mail to obtain the selected transmission target image. Each user can obtain all the images not selected on the image selection screen via the server by performing a predetermined member registration.

In the waiting time until the sheet image printing process in step S321 in FIG.
The process of step S411 is performed. When the printing of the sheet image is completed in step S321, the CPU 103 discharges the sticker (photo sticker) on which the sheet image is printed from the photo sticker discharge port 52 (step S412). This is a series of play in one use.

In the above-described embodiment, the user can individually set the angle at the time of shooting for all shootings in one use. Therefore, the user can obtain a photographic image photographed at a desired angle according to the mood of the day, the purpose of photographing, and the like.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, not only can the angles be set individually for all the shootings, but also the user can select a set angle in which the angles are combined in advance. Therefore, the user can shorten the time required for setting the angle by selecting the set angle. Also, after the set angle is selected, the user can select an angle from “up”, “whole body from top”, and “whole body in front” for each shooting, so that the degree of freedom of angle selection can be selected. Can be improved.

In the above-described embodiment, when all angles are not selected within a predetermined time,
Based on the selected angle, the angle of the unselected shot is automatically set to be similar to a predetermined set angle. Therefore, it is possible to set a well-balanced combination of angles along the predetermined set angle while reflecting the angle selected by the user.

More specifically, in the embodiment described above, the angle of the unselected shot is automatically set based on the set angle 1 in which “up” is performed four times and “whole body” is performed twice.
As a result, among the “up”, “whole body from above”, and “frontal whole body”, “
The ratio of the “up” angle is the highest, and the appearance of the sheet image when the photographic image is arranged on the sheet layout is improved. Further, since the face of the subject is larger in the up-photograph image than in the first and second full-body photograph images, the effect of the image processing according to the selected facial image can be more easily understood. Also, considering that it is relatively common that “up” is applied four times and “whole body from the top” is applied twice as a conventional combination of angles, an angle of an unselected shot based on the set angle 1 is considered. By automatically setting, it is possible to perform shooting that is easy to be used by the user and that does not easily cause discomfort.

In the above-described embodiment, selection of angles for each of the six shots is accepted on the angle selection screen 120, and a list of angle information indicating angles of the selected six shots is displayed. Therefore, the user can select an angle while checking all the angles selected for the total number of shots in one play.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, at the time of shooting, a guidance screen for guiding a standing position corresponding to an angle in the shooting is displayed, so that the user can move in the shooting booth 2 according to the guidance screen and adjust the shooting position. it can. As a result, the user can shoot at an appropriate position according to the selected angle.

In the above embodiment, the shooting is performed in the order of “up”, “whole body from above”, and “front whole body” angles. That is, when a plurality of different angles are selected, the photographing at the same angle is continuously performed, so that the number of times the user moves in the photographing booth 2 is reduced as compared with the case where the photographing at the same angle is not continuously performed. be able to. Further, by continuously performing shooting at the same angle, the frequency of controlling the shooting direction of the camera 21 can be reduced, so that mechanical wear of the mechanism for changing the shooting direction of the camera 21 can be reduced. .

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the shooting course is the Shikaku course, and three angles of “up”, “whole body”, and “frontal whole body” are prepared. However, images shot at any angle are also vertical. The trimming is performed so that the ratio of the horizontal length to the horizontal length is the same. When the ratio between the vertical and horizontal lengths of a photographic image is different for each angle, a background image having a size corresponding to the angle needs to be prepared in advance in accordance with the photographic image. In the above-described embodiment, since the ratio between the vertical and horizontal lengths of the photographic image is the same for all angles, it is sufficient that background images of the same size are all prepared in advance.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, since the ratio of the vertical and horizontal lengths of the photographic image is the same at all angles, the ratio of the vertical and horizontal lengths of the arrangement area of the photographic image in the sheet layout is also the same. Therefore, it is not necessary to prepare sheet layout patterns for the number of angle combinations for one sheet layout. As a result, the type of sheet layout is not limited, and it becomes easier for the user to provide a desired sheet image.

In the above-described embodiment, the background types of the design “set” and “set” include the background image of the design corresponding to “up” and the background image of the design corresponding to the “whole body from top” and “frontal whole body” angles. Is prepared, it is possible to combine a background image without a sense of incongruity with a photographic image taken at each angle.

As described above, the embodiments of the present invention have been described, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.

(1) For example, in the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which, when the shooting course is a zigzag course, an angle for each shooting is selected from three angles of “up”, “whole body from above”, and “frontal whole body”. Alternatively, an angle for each shooting may be selected from at least two angles.

(2) In the above-described embodiment, the set angles are “up” and “whole body from above”.
Although the example including at least one of the angles of “front whole body” has been described, an angle different from these angles may be included.

(3) In the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which an angle for shooting in which an angle is not selected within a predetermined time is automatically determined based on a combination of set angle angles. May be determined according to predetermined rules,
It may be determined at random.

(4) In the above-described embodiment, the background types “design” and “set” except for the background type “normal” include “up”, “whole body from above”, and “front whole body”. Although the example in which the background image according to the angle is stored in the HDD 104 in advance has been described, the background type of “normal” also corresponds to each angle of “up”, “whole body from above”, and “front whole body”. The background image may be stored in the HDD 104 in advance.
