Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a portrait photographing apparatus in which a subject sits on a chair or the like in a photographing room and photographs his / her appearance through an optical lens of a photographing apparatus provided facing the chair.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 A box-shaped portrait photography device that creates photographs for examinations / certifications or passports is placed in the corners of department stores / convenience stores and on the streets around stations. The outer wall surface of such a simplified image capturing device was not decorated, and the wall surface was painted in one color, and many of them were undecorated, such as a large number of arranged lights for lighting at night. In particular, it is used for certification such as licenses and examinations, so there was no need to attach a device such as decorations to increase the manufacturing cost or a pattern or pattern on the outer wall. In addition, in these simple type photographing devices, the photographing device main body having the built-in optical device and the photographing room equipped with a chair are integrally formed and installed as a single building.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, it was not necessary to stand out on the rooftops such as department stores, but in traditional playgrounds and game centers where young people gather, such as the modern downtown area, the conventional portrait photography device is a terrifying scene, which is why the busy downtown area It was not so conspicuous, and it was not suitable for lively places. The portrait photographing device of the present invention is provided with a design or the like on the outer wall which is conspicuous even if it is installed in a downtown area without being afraid of surrounding flashiness. The purpose of this invention is suitable for game arcades, etc., and it is a portrait that has a board with a fancy picture pattern such as an advertising board printed with a color image that is illuminated from the inside of the exterior wall even at night. An imaging device is provided. Another object of the present invention is to provide a portrait photographing apparatus in which the photographing apparatus section and the photographing room section can be divided and separately assembled and can be easily transported to an installation place.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The object of the present invention is to provide an optical device for guiding an image of a subject into a photographing device, a signal processing device for processing a video signal input to the optical device, a monitor section for displaying the processed video signal as an image, and this monitor. In the portrait photography device consisting of the photography device body equipped with a printer for printing the image of the section, and the photography room provided with a chair and the like, which is placed facing the optical device of the photography device body, the chair sits The image projection plate of a predetermined size on which various light sources are semi-transparent and various patterns are drawn is arranged on the outer wall of the box or the shooting room where the main body of the imaging device is built. This can be achieved by a structure in which a light source for illumination is installed on the inner side of the.

[0005]

[Action]

 The portrait photographing device of the present invention is an information signal processing device that processes an image signal input from an electronic camera, a monitor unit that displays an image based on the processed image signal, and an image that is displayed on a monitor unit. An image in which a pattern or a pattern is printed on the outer wall surface of a box that has a built-in printing / recording unit, etc. that prints onto photographic paper as a print and carries this photographic paper out, and has an operation panel on the front. A projection plate is provided. The whole imaging device is gorgeous, and the installation location can be clearly identified even at night. In particular, in this portrait photographing device, when photographing a subject, such as a landscape image or a character image, which is a composite image in which the subject image is embedded in a landscape image or a character image of a popular product, which is previously input to the photographing device main body. The picture can be revealed on the image projection board. Therefore, when installed in a street corner, the character image can be displayed large on the outer wall of the image capturing device, and at a glance the contents of the captured image can be easily understood. Conspicuous and easy to use.

In the portrait photographing apparatus of the present invention, the picture or the like can be raised without attaching a neon lamp or the like to the outer wall surface, so that there is no fear that the fluorescent lamp exposed to the outside will be destroyed. Moreover, it would be even more convenient if a chaise lounge or the like was installed so that several people could sit on it, and many people could shoot at the same time. Furthermore, by coloring the color of the wall surface of the shooting room in front of the shooting device to one color, the image signal of the subject such as a landscape image or character image stored in the shooting device by video matting technology or chroma key technology can be used. A clear color image of a composite photo with a person in the background as a whole can be obtained by printing it on photographic paper. In particular, if the background of the subject is set to blue, the chroma key technology used when making a composite photograph is used to obtain a beautiful print photograph without the color turbidity of the subject image.

 FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of a portrait photographing apparatus according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a layout view showing the front side of the photographing apparatus. FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing another embodiment of the outer wall of the photographing apparatus of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 is a main body of the photographing apparatus, which incorporates an optical device 2 such as an optical camera or an electronic camera. The optical device 2 has a zoom lens barrel which moves back and forth by a motor drive, an image pickup element, and a printed wiring board. A monitor unit 3 including a cathode ray tube and a liquid crystal panel for converting a subject image input to the optical device 2 into an image signal and processing the image signal by a signal processing circuit to display a color image is provided. An operation panel 4 is arranged below the monitor unit 3. The operation panel 4 is provided with selection buttons 5, 5, ... And background sample images 6, 6 ,. Further, near the operation panel 4, there is installed an operation rod for moving the optical axis of the optical device 2 and moving the zoom lens barrel to determine the photographing range.
