Definitions
- the invention relates to a device with a digital optical recording device for wide-angle recording of an image of a person, a being or an object, the spatial orientation and the typical pictorial features of which are essentially fixed, and with a storage device for electronically storing the image.
- the invention also relates to a method for rectifying such an image.
- Examples of devices of the type mentioned above are commercially available digital cameras, in which digital images are generated and stored, particularly when taking portraits.
- the spatial orientation and the typical pictorial features of the object to be photographed are essentially defined, especially in the portrait shots already mentioned.
- Digital cameras have also recently been used in mobile phones to make it easier for a user of the
- wide-angle lenses / lenses are usually used, so that the user can film (video sound) or record (single image).
- the invention is therefore based on the object of providing a device with a digital optical recording device for wide-angle recording of an image of an object, and a method in which an effective equalization of the recorded image is achieved.
- this object is achieved by a detection device for the two-dimensional detection of relative positions of the typical pictorial features of the recorded object relative to one another, a reference storage device which contains relative positions of the typical pictorial features corresponding to a standard arrangement, and an equalization device, those for reading out the image stored in the memory device and for equalizing the stored image, depending on a comparison of the relative
- Reference storage device is formed.
- a “wide-angle photograph” is understood to mean a photograph that captures an image section that is larger than that that is imaged on a retina of a human eye. This applies, for example, to object focal lengths of less than 50 mm in the 35 mm photograph a film section of 24 x 36 mm.
- the device is thus suitable for using the detection device to identify the typical pictorial features of the recorded object - these are, for example, the mouth, nose and ears in a human face - and the relative positions of the identified typical pictorial features.
- the actual equalization of the recorded image takes place in such a way that a standard arrangement is used, in which corresponding relative positions of the typical pictorial features to one another are fixed.
- the equalization device preferably operates at least partially in a non-linear manner.
- linearization algorithms can generally be used which do not work linearly in certain value ranges and linearly in other value ranges.
- the comparison carried out then provides information about the extent to which the relative positions of the typical pictorial features differ from one another in the recorded object and in the standard arrangement.
- the recorded image can then be approximated to the standard arrangement with regard to the locations of its typical pictorial features.
- the typical pictorial features should preferably be selected such that they are partly in the outer region of the object being recorded and partly in the inner region of the object being recorded. This gives a particularly representative picture of the distortion attributable to the wide-angle lens.
- the equalization device is preferably designed in such a way that a value for a variable is determined in the comparison, the one
- Ears, head circumference and / or head outline can be used.
- the equalization device is preferably designed to enlarge and reduce sections of the image, so that distortions can be effectively compensated for by an inserted wide-angle lens.
- the equalization can be carried out both at the pixel level and at the surface level.
- a mean value can be formed for corresponding pixels of the recorded image in order to reduce the size of an image section to calculate a pixel value of an associated reduced image section.
- the equalization device is preferably designed for this purpose.
- the equalization device can be designed to enlarge an image section to calculate a pixel value of an associated enlarged image section by interpolation based on neighboring pixels of the recorded image. In this case, the enlargement results in additional pixel values for a recorded image section, to which intensity and color values can be assigned. Such “gaps” resulting from the enlargement are closed by means of interpolation to generate new pixels.
- non-linear equalization of the stored recorded image wherein the recorded image is read out and, depending on a comparison of the relative positions of typical pictorial features of the recorded object, is rectified by the detection device with the relative positions of the typical pictorial features corresponding to the standard arrangement by the reference storage device ,
- a dimensional ratio between the relative positions of the typical features of the recorded object to one another and the relative positions of the typical features to one another in the standard arrangement can be determined that the equalization is involved.
- This measure takes into account the fact that in certain cases there is a significant difference in the absolute dimensions of the item in the Image and the object can be in the standard arrangement. Such differences can be compensated for by determining the dimensional ratio in the manner described above.
- the ratio between a distance between the layers of two is more typical as the dimensional ratio
- Portrait shot can be the eye relief to form the
- the equalization can be improved further by determining the spatial orientation of an object represented by the image when detecting the relative positions of the typical features of the recorded object the spatial alignment of the standard arrangement is adjusted for the comparison.
- This measure can be useful if, for example, typical features for a portrait shot in the sense of the typical front view are stored as the standard arrangement, while the human head was taken in a perspective view in the case of a captured image.
- the spatial orientation for the recorded image can be determined as part of the identification of the typical features of the human face, such as the eyes and ears, and the spatial orientation of the standard arrangement can be adapted on the basis of this.
- the equalization can be carried out both for still images which are already available, for example, in a compressed data format such as JPEG, and for films in which several images are connected to one another.
- the equalization can thus in real time, i.e. be carried out during a transmission via a communication connection as well as with a time delay.
- the exemplary embodiment relates to a portrait that is taken by means of a digital camera that is integrated in a mobile phone.
- the digital camera is equipped with a wide-angled lens to enable its user to take pictures of themselves while holding the mobile phone comfortably.
- a two-dimensional detection of relative positions of typical pictorial features of the head of the user is carried out using a software-implemented detection device.
- the typical visual features such as the eyes, ears, mouth, head size and head outline are recorded. These features are identified by means of the detection device.
- their positions and thus their relative positions to each other are determined.
- a reference storage device is then accessed, the relative positions of the typical pictorial features of a human being corresponding to a standard arrangement
- a non-linear equalization device reads the cached image from the user's head from a storage device. This is followed by equalization of the stored image as described below. This equalization is based on a comparison of the relative positions of the typical pictorial features of the recorded head of the user with the relative positions of the typical pictorial features according to the standard arrangement. In this standard arrangement, relative positions and positions of the typical features are stored, which can be obtained, for example, from an "average face".
- the comparison is evaluated to determine whether there is a significant correlation between the relative positions of the typical pictorial features of the recorded object, here the head of the user, and the relative positions provided by the reference storage device. This can be accomplished, for example, using the least squares method that provides a representative value for the correlation between pixel values of the recorded image and pixel values of the standard arrangement. If there is no sufficient correlation, no equalization takes place. In this way, it is avoided that in the case of the exemplary embodiment described here, equalization is carried out on the basis of the standard arrangement which relates to a human face in the case of non-portrait recordings.
- the comparison is also evaluated to the extent that, in the equalization, a dimensional relationship between the relative positions of the typical features of the recorded object to one another and the relative positions of the typical features in the
- Standard arrangement is determined. In this way, prior to the actual equalization, it is recognized whether there are any significant absolute dimensional differences between the recorded image and the standard arrangement.
- the distance between the two eyes in the standard arrangement for the portrait picture discussed here can be compared with the eye distance in the picture taken in order to obtain a suitable value for the dimensional ratio.
- the result delivered by the detection device is evaluated via the positions of the typical pictorial features. Based on the identification and the position of the eyes, ears, etc. of the head of the user, the spatial orientation can be inferred.
- an internal image detail is reduced during the actual equalization, while an outer image detail is enlarged.
- an outer image detail is enlarged.
- averaging over a number of pixels of the recorded image is carried out so that an intensity value and a color value for the pixel, which reflects the number of pixels in the original image detail, are obtained.
- the result of only enlarged image sections the result of only enlarged image sections, the result
- an imaging rule can be obtained according to which, for a certain distance, the human head and the wide-angle lens between at one
