Description

画像再生装置Image playback device
 この発明は画像再生装置に関し、特に、動画像を再生する画像再生装置に関する。 The present invention relates to an image reproducing device, and more particularly to an image reproducing device for reproducing a moving image.
 最近のスマートフォンまたはデジタルカメラとして、スローモーション再生を前提とした高速度に動画を撮像可能な機器が提供されている。高速度で撮像した動画像は、スローモーションで再生される機会が増加する傾向にある。 As a recent smartphone or digital camera, devices capable of capturing moving images at a high speed assuming slow motion playback are provided. Moving images captured at high speed tend to increase the chances of being played back in slow motion.
 例えば、特許文献1(特開2010-45609号公報)の動画再生装置は、ユーザ操作によりスロー再生速度が多段階で変化した場合であっても、再生フレームレートが一定となるよう、再生速度に応じてフレームを加算合成により生成する。 For example, the moving image playback apparatus disclosed in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-45609) has a playback speed so that the playback frame rate is constant even when the slow playback speed is changed in multiple stages by a user operation. In response, a frame is generated by addition synthesis.
 また、特許文献2(特開2008-219857号公報)および特許文献3(特開昭52-89414号公報)も、画像のスロー再生のための技術を開示する。 In addition, Patent Document 2 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2008-21857) and Patent Document 3 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 52-89414) also disclose a technique for slow reproduction of an image.
特開2010-45609号公報JP 2010-45609 A 特開2008-219857号公報JP 2008-219857 A 特開昭52-89414号公報JP 52-89414 A
 ユーザが、高速度で撮像された動画をスロー再生により鑑賞する場合には、スロー再生中はスロー倍率に比例して再生に要する時間も延びる。そのため、スロー倍率が高ければ高いほど、再生時間が長くなり、ユーザは鑑賞することに苦痛を感じる。 When a user views a moving image captured at a high speed by slow playback, the time required for playback increases in proportion to the slow magnification during slow playback. Therefore, the higher the slow magnification, the longer the playback time, and the user feels painful to watch.
 超高速度で撮像された動画またはフレーム間の画像の補間によって生成された非常に高いスロー倍率での再生の場合、撮像時間が1秒間の動画が数十秒間の再生時間となる。 In the case of playback at a very high slow magnification generated by interpolation of a moving image captured at a very high speed or an image between frames, a moving image with an imaging time of 1 second has a playback time of several tens of seconds.
 さらに、通常速度の再生から、いきなりスロー再生に切り替わる場合には、再生速度が極端に変化するために再生画像がスムーズに見えない。またスロー再生区間の再生速度が同じ速度であれば、ユーザは再生画像を単調な画像に感じる。 Furthermore, when switching from normal speed playback to slow playback suddenly, the playback speed does not change smoothly because the playback speed changes drastically.

 図3は、実施の形態1に係るスマートフォン100の動画像再生に関する機能の構成を模式的に表す図である。図3の各部は、CPU231により実行されるプログラム、または各部の機能を実現する複数の回路の組合せにより実現される。 FIG. 3 is a diagram schematically illustrating a configuration of functions related to moving image reproduction of the smartphone 100 according to the first embodiment. Each unit in FIG. 3 is realized by a program executed by the CPU 231 or a combination of a plurality of circuits that realize the function of each unit.
 図3を参照して、スマートフォン100のCPU231は、メモリ250から読出されたデータを処理し、処理されたデータを表示装置212に表示する機能を有する。メモリ250は、画像記憶部251を含む。 Referring to FIG. 3, CPU 231 of smartphone 100 has a function of processing data read from memory 250 and displaying the processed data on display device 212. The memory 250 includes an image storage unit 251.
 画像記憶部251は、カメラ220により撮像された画像データを含む動画ファイルを記憶する。動画ファイルは、圧縮処理がなされた動画像のデータと、撮像中にマイク160により取り込まれて圧縮処理がなされた音声データとが多重化されて構成される。動画像は、撮像の順番に従い、時系列に連続した複数の画像フレーム(画像データに相当)からなる映像に相当する。動画像を構成する画像フレームの数は、同じ撮像期間の長さであれば、カメラ220の撮像速度が速い程、画像フレーム数は多くなり、逆に、撮像速度が遅い程、画像フレームの数は減少する。以下では、映像データを、動画像ともいう。 The image storage unit 251 stores a moving image file including image data captured by the camera 220. The moving image file is configured by multiplexing the compressed moving image data and the audio data captured and compressed by the microphone 160 during imaging. A moving image corresponds to an image made up of a plurality of time-sequential image frames (corresponding to image data) in the order of imaging.

In yet another aspect, the image storage unit 251 stores a moving image file read from the memory card 152. Since the audio data of the moving image file is well-known, detailed description regarding recording and reproduction of the audio data will not be repeated.
 スマートフォン100のCPU231は、操作受付部1、選択部2、設定部3、フレーム生成部4、再生部5、代表取得部6および画像処理部7を含む。 The CPU 231 of the smartphone 100 includes an operation reception unit 1, a selection unit 2, a setting unit 3, a frame generation unit 4, a reproduction unit 5, a representative acquisition unit 6, and an image processing unit 7.
 画像処理部7は、画像記憶部251の動画ファイルから動画像のデータを取出し、取出されたデータをデコードする。これにより、圧縮されていた画像は、再生可能な形式に変換される。 The image processing unit 7 extracts moving image data from the moving image file in the image storage unit 251 and decodes the extracted data. Thereby, the compressed image is converted into a reproducible format.
 操作受付部1は、タッチパネル140からの出力に基づき、タッチパネル140を介したスマートフォン100に対するユーザ操作の内容を受付ける。 The operation reception unit 1 receives the content of the user operation on the smartphone 100 via the touch panel 140 based on the output from the touch panel 140.
 選択部2は、操作受付部1により受付けられたユーザ操作の内容に従って、上述した動画像の複数の画像フレーム(デコード後の画像フレーム)のうちから、時系列に連続した2以上の画像フレームを選択する。この選択処理の詳細は後述する。 The selection unit 2 selects two or more image frames that are continuous in time series from the plurality of image frames (decoded image frames) of the moving image according to the content of the user operation received by the operation reception unit 1. select. Details of this selection process will be described later.
 設定部3は、選択部2により選択された2以上の画像フレームのスロー再生速度が、これら画像フレームの再生区間において、変化するように当該スロー再生速度を設定する。スロー再生速度は、撮像速度よりも遅い再生速度を示す。スロー再生速度の設定処理の詳細は後述する。 The setting unit 3 sets the slow playback speed so that the slow playback speeds of two or more image frames selected by the selection unit 2 change in the playback section of these image frames. The slow playback speed indicates a playback speed that is slower than the imaging speed. Details of the slow playback speed setting process will be described later.
 フレーム生成部4は、上述の選択された2以上の画像フレームの再生区間において、設定部3により設定されたスロー再生速度の変化に従って、複数の再生フレームを生成する。フレーム生成処理は、複数の画像フレームから1つ以上の画像フレームを間引く間引処理、および既存の画像フレームから新たな画像フレームを生成する補間処理を含む。間引処理および補間処理は、周知の処理を適用することができるので、これら処理の詳細説明は繰返さない。 The frame generation unit 4 generates a plurality of playback frames in accordance with changes in the slow playback speed set by the setting unit 3 in the playback section of the two or more selected image frames. The frame generation process includes a thinning process for thinning out one or more image frames from a plurality of image frames, and an interpolation process for generating a new image frame from an existing image frame. Since the thinning process and the interpolation process can apply known processes, detailed description of these processes will not be repeated.
 再生部5は、動画像を再生するための再生処理を実施する。具体的には、再生部5は、フレーム生成部4により生成された複数の再生用の画像フレーム(以下、再生フレームという)を、予め定められた再生フレームレートで切替えながら表示されるように、表示デバイスコントローラ214に出力する。なお、予め定められた再生フレームレートは、表示装置212に固有の画面の更新速度に相当する。 The reproduction unit 5 performs a reproduction process for reproducing a moving image. Specifically, the playback unit 5 displays a plurality of playback image frames (hereinafter referred to as playback frames) generated by the frame generation unit 4 while switching at a predetermined playback frame rate. Output to the display device controller 214. The predetermined playback frame rate corresponds to the screen update speed unique to the display device 212.
 本実施の形態では、カメラ220による動画像の撮像速度を表す撮像フレームレートを120fpsとし、および予め定められた再生フレームレートを30fpsとする。フレームレートは、例えば、1秒間に処理される画像フレームの数(静止画の数)を表している。また、上記に述べたスロー再生速度のフレームレートは、撮像フレームレート以下を示す。 In this embodiment, the imaging frame rate representing the imaging speed of the moving image by the camera 220 is 120 fps, and the predetermined reproduction frame rate is 30 fps. The frame rate represents, for example, the number of image frames (number of still images) processed per second. In addition, the frame rate of the slow playback speed described above indicates an imaging frame rate or less.
 (スロー再生のパターンと区間の設定)
 設定部3によるスロー再生速度の設定について説明する。設定部3は、再生対象の動画像の全再生時間の長さと、ユーザ操作により指定された標準パターンと、ユーザ操作により指定されたスロー再生区間とに従い、予め定められた演算式を用いて、スロー再生区間において段階的に変化するスロー再生速度を算出する。ここでは、全再生時間は、撮像速度と同じ速度で動画像の全てを再生した場合に、再生開始から終了までに要する時間の長さを示す。また、スロー再生区間は、全再生時間における少なくとも一部の期間に相当する。なお、スロー再生区間は全再生時間の画像の最初から最後まで全ての区間が選択されてもかまわない。
(Slow playback pattern and section settings)
The setting of the slow playback speed by the setting unit 3 will be described. The setting unit 3 uses a predetermined arithmetic expression according to the length of the total playback time of the moving image to be played back, the standard pattern specified by the user operation, and the slow playback section specified by the user operation, The slow playback speed that changes stepwise in the slow playback section is calculated. Here, the total playback time indicates the length of time required from the start to the end of playback when all moving images are played back at the same speed as the imaging speed. Further, the slow playback section corresponds to at least a part of the total playback time. Note that all the sections from the beginning to the end of the image of the entire playback time may be selected as the slow playback section.
 ここで、ユーザ操作による、上記の標準パターンとスロー再生区間を設定する方法について説明する。メモリ250には、複数の標準パターンと、それぞれを識別する情報とが格納されている。標準パターンの設定に際して、CPU231は、メモリ250から複数の標準パターンの識別情報を、表示装置212に表示する。ユーザは、タッチパネル140を操作することにより、所望する標準パターンの識別情報を選択する。操作受付部1は、当該選択操作の内容を受付ける。設定部3は、受付けられた操作内容に基づき、ユーザが選択した標準パターンを特定する。 Here, a method for setting the standard pattern and the slow playback section by the user operation will be described. The memory 250 stores a plurality of standard patterns and information for identifying each. When setting the standard pattern, the CPU 231 displays identification information of a plurality of standard patterns from the memory 250 on the display device 212. The user operates the touch panel 140 to select desired standard pattern identification information. The operation reception unit 1 receives the content of the selection operation. The setting unit 3 specifies the standard pattern selected by the user based on the received operation content.
 また、スロー再生区間の設定に際し、代表取得部6は、画像記憶部251の動画ファイルの動画像から代表となる複数の代表画像フレームを抽出し、表示する。具体的には、動画ファイルは、動画像の各シーンに対応した代表画像フレームとしてサムネイル画像を含む。代表取得部6は、動画ファイルの動画像から各シーンに対応のサムネイル画像を抽出し、抽出された複数のサムネイル画像を、撮像された(再生されるべき)順番に従って表示装置212に表示する。ユーザは、タッチパネル140を操作することにより、複数のサムネイル画像のうちから、連続した2以上のサムネイル画像を選択する。選択部2は、操作受付部1を介したユーザの操作内容に基づき、選択された2以上のサムネイル画像のシーンの識別情報からスロー再生区間を特定する。例えば、スロー再生区間は、第Nシーン~第N+nシーン(N,n=1,2,3…)と特定される。 Also, when setting the slow playback section, the representative acquisition unit 6 extracts and displays a plurality of representative image frames as representatives from the moving image of the moving image file in the image storage unit 251. Specifically, the moving image file includes a thumbnail image as a representative image frame corresponding to each scene of the moving image. The representative acquisition unit 6 extracts thumbnail images corresponding to each scene from the moving image of the moving image file, and displays the extracted thumbnail images on the display device 212 according to the order in which they were captured (to be reproduced). The user operates the touch panel 140 to select two or more consecutive thumbnail images from among a plurality of thumbnail images. The selection unit 2 specifies the slow playback section from the scene identification information of the two or more selected thumbnail images based on the user's operation content via the operation reception unit 1. For example, the slow playback section is specified as the Nth scene to the (N + n) th scene (N, n = 1, 2, 3,...).
 別の局面では、スロー再生区間は、ユーザ操作に基づき、動画像の再生開始からの経過時間(例えば、開始から2秒後~10秒後等)として特定されてもよい。したがって、この場合には、開始から2秒後~10秒後に相当する連続した2以上の画像フレームが、スロー再生の対象として特定されることになる。 In another aspect, the slow playback section may be specified as an elapsed time from the start of playback of a moving image (for example, 2 seconds to 10 seconds after the start, etc.) based on a user operation. Therefore, in this case, two or more consecutive image frames corresponding to 2 to 10 seconds after the start are specified as the targets for slow playback.
 (スロー再生速度の設定)
 設定部3は、スロー再生区間では、スロー再生速度が一律ではなく段階的に変化するように、当該スロー再生速度を設定する。スロー再生速度の設定処理を、標準パターンとして、対称型パターンが指定された場合を例示して説明する。図4は、実施の形態1に係る対称型パターンに従うスロー再生速度の変化を示す図である。図4のパターンは、スロー再生速度の段階的な変化を、折れ線グラフにより表している。
(Slow playback speed setting)
The setting unit 3 sets the slow playback speed so that the slow playback speed changes in a stepwise manner in the slow playback section. The slow playback speed setting process will be described by exemplifying a case where a symmetric pattern is designated as a standard pattern. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a change in the slow playback speed according to the symmetric pattern according to the first embodiment. The pattern in FIG. 4 represents a step change in the slow playback speed by a line graph.
 図4のグラフの横軸は全再生時間の長さを示し、縦軸はスロー倍率(すなわち、スロー再生速度)を示す。縦軸の目盛には、スロー倍率の値として“通常速度”、“1/2スロー”、“1/4スロー”、“1/8スロー”、“1/16スロー”、“1/32スロー”が順に割当られている。また、横軸の全再生時間の一部期間は、ユーザ操作に従うスロー再生区間を示す。設定部3は、スロー再生区間の中心の時間(以下、中心時間CPともいう)を通る直線(グラフの横軸に垂直な直線)を挟んで、左右対称(線対称)に階段状に変化するスロー倍率を設定する。具体的には、再生区間の開始時点から中心時間CPまでの期間は、スロー再生速度が、通常速度から最大スロー再生速度(“1/32スロー”)まで段階的に変化し、中心時間CPから再生区間の終了時点までの期間は、最大スロー再生速度(“1/32スロー”)から通常速度へ段階的に変化するように、スロー再生速度が設定される。 The horizontal axis of the graph in FIG. 4 indicates the length of the total playback time, and the vertical axis indicates the slow magnification (ie, slow playback speed). On the scale of the vertical axis, “normal speed”, “1/2 throw”, “1/4 throw”, “1/8 throw”, “1/16 throw”, “1/32 throw” "Are assigned in order. Further, a partial period of the total reproduction time on the horizontal axis indicates a slow reproduction section according to the user operation. The setting unit 3 changes in a stepwise manner with left-right symmetry (line symmetry) across a straight line (straight line perpendicular to the horizontal axis of the graph) passing through the center time of the slow playback section (hereinafter also referred to as center time CP). Set the slow magnification. Specifically, during the period from the start point of the playback section to the central time CP, the slow playback speed changes stepwise from the normal speed to the maximum slow playback speed (“1/32 slow”). During the period until the end of the playback section, the slow playback speed is set so as to change stepwise from the maximum slow playback speed (“1/32 slow”) to the normal speed.
 (再生フレームの生成)
 フレーム生成部4による再生フレームの生成処理を、図4のパターンに従ってスロー再生する場合を例示して説明する。この場合には、画像記憶部251から、動画像の画像フレームが時系列に連続した順番に従い読出される。読出された画像フレームは、画像処理部7により処理されて、処理後の画像フレームは、時系列の順にフレーム生成部4に出力される。フレーム生成部4は、画像処理部7からの画像フレームに基づき、再生フレームを生成する。
(Generation of playback frame)
The reproduction frame generation processing by the frame generation unit 4 will be described by exemplifying a case where slow reproduction is performed according to the pattern of FIG. In this case, the image frames of the moving image are read out from the image storage unit 251 according to the sequential order in time series. The read image frames are processed by the image processing unit 7, and the processed image frames are output to the frame generation unit 4 in chronological order. The frame generation unit 4 generates a playback frame based on the image frame from the image processing unit 7.
 図4を参照すると、まず、動画像の再生が開始されてから時間T1までの期間では、再生速度は“通常速度”に設定されている。したがって、動画像を、撮像速度と同じ速さで再生するために、フレーム生成部4は、時系列の4つのフレーム画像を受付ける毎に、当該4つのフレーム画像から3つのフレーム画像を間引く。これにより、残りの1個のフレーム画像が、再生フレームとして再生部5に出力される。 Referring to FIG. 4, first, the playback speed is set to “normal speed” in the period from the start of playback of a moving image to time T1. Therefore, in order to reproduce a moving image at the same speed as the imaging speed, the frame generation unit 4 thins out three frame images from the four frame images every time four time-series frame images are received. As a result, the remaining one frame image is output to the reproduction unit 5 as a reproduction frame.
 その後の時間T1~時間T2の期間では、再生速度は“1/2スロー”のスロー再生速度に設定されている。したがって、動画像を撮像速度の1/2の速さで再生するために、フレーム生成部4は、時系列の2つのフレーム画像を受付ける毎に、当該2つのフレーム画像から1つのフレーム画像を間引く。これにより、残りの1個のフレーム画像が再生フレームとして再生部5に出力される。 In the subsequent period from time T1 to time T2, the playback speed is set to a slow playback speed of “1/2 slow”. Therefore, in order to reproduce a moving image at a speed that is 1/2 of the imaging speed, the frame generation unit 4 thins out one frame image from the two frame images each time two time-series frame images are received. . As a result, the remaining one frame image is output as a playback frame to the playback unit 5.
 その後の時間T2~時間T3の期間では、再生速度は“1/4スロー”のスロー再生速度に設定されている。フレーム生成部4は、時系列のフレーム画像を受付ける毎に、当該フレーム画像を受付け順に従って、再生部5に出力する。この期間は、間引き処理は実施されない。 In the subsequent period from time T2 to time T3, the playback speed is set to a slow playback speed of “1/4 slow”. Each time the frame generation unit 4 receives a time-series frame image, the frame generation unit 4 outputs the frame image to the reproduction unit 5 according to the reception order. During this period, the thinning process is not performed.
 その後の時間T3~時間T4の期間では、再生速度は“1/8スロー”のスロー再生速度に設定されている。したがって、動画像を、撮像速度の1/8の速さで再生するために、フレーム生成部4は、1つのフレーム画像を受付ける毎に、当該1つのフレーム画像から予め定められた補間処理により新たな1つのフレーム画像を生成する。これにより、合計2個の再生フレームが再生部5に出力される。 In the subsequent period from time T3 to time T4, the playback speed is set to a slow playback speed of “1/8 slow”. Therefore, in order to reproduce a moving image at a speed that is 1/8 of the imaging speed, the frame generation unit 4 performs a new interpolation process from the one frame image every time one frame image is received. A single frame image is generated. As a result, a total of two playback frames are output to the playback unit 5.
 その後の時間T4~時間T5の期間では、再生速度は“1/16スロー”のスロー再生速度に設定されている。したがって、動画像を、撮像速度の1/16の速さで再生するために、フレーム生成部4は、1つのフレーム画像を受付ける毎に、当該1つのフレーム画像から予め定められた補間処理により新たな2つのフレーム画像を生成する。これにより、合計3個の再生フレームが再生部5に出力される。 In the subsequent period from time T4 to time T5, the playback speed is set to a slow playback speed of “1/16 slow”. Therefore, in order to reproduce a moving image at a speed that is 1/16 of the imaging speed, the frame generation unit 4 newly receives a single frame image by a predetermined interpolation process every time a single frame image is received. Two frame images are generated. As a result, a total of three playback frames are output to the playback unit 5.
 その後の時間T5~時間T6の期間では、再生速度は“1/32スロー”のスロー再生速度に設定されている。したがって、動画像を、撮像速度の1/32の速さで再生するために、フレーム生成部4は、1つのフレーム画像を受付ける毎に、当該1つのフレーム画像から予め定められた補間処理により新たな7つのフレーム画像を生成する。これにより、合計8個の再生フレームが再生部5に出力される。 In the subsequent period from time T5 to time T6, the playback speed is set to a slow playback speed of “1/32 slow”. Therefore, in order to reproduce a moving image at a speed that is 1/32 of the imaging speed, every time a frame image is received, the frame generation unit 4 newly performs a new interpolation process from the one frame image. 7 frame images are generated. As a result, a total of eight playback frames are output to the playback unit 5.
 スロー再生速度が“1/32スロー”の最も遅い再生速度になった後は、再生速度が通常速度に戻るように順次再生フレームが生成される。 After the slow playback speed reaches the slowest playback speed of “1/32 slow”, playback frames are sequentially generated so that the playback speed returns to the normal speed.
 具体的には、時間T6~時間T7の再生速度は“1/16スロー”に、その後の時間T7~時間T8の再生速度は“1/8スロー”に、その後の時間T8~時間T9の再生速度は“1/4スロー”に、その後の時間T9~時間T10に再生速度は“1/2スロー”に、それぞれ変更されるように、再生フレームが生成されて、生成された再生フレームは再生部5に出力される。 Specifically, the playback speed from time T6 to time T7 is “1/16 slow”, the playback speed from time T7 to time T8 is “1/8 slow”, and playback from time T8 to time T9 thereafter. The playback frame is generated so that the speed is changed to “1/4 slow”, and the playback speed is changed to “1/2 slow” from time T9 to time T10 thereafter, and the generated playback frame is played back. Is output to the unit 5.
 再生部5は、フレーム生成部4から出力される時系列順の再生フレームを、予め定められた再生フレームレート(30fps)で切替えながら、表示デバイスコントローラ214に出力する。したがって、表示装置212には、スロー再生区間の動画像データが、図4のスロー再生速度の段階的な変化に従ってスロー再生される。 The reproduction unit 5 outputs the reproduction frames in time series output from the frame generation unit 4 to the display device controller 214 while switching at a predetermined reproduction frame rate (30 fps). Therefore, the moving image data in the slow playback section is slowly played back on the display device 212 according to the stepwise change in the slow playback speed in FIG.
 (再生処理)
 図5は、実施の形態1に係る画像再生処理を示すフローチャートである。このフローチャートに従うプログラムは、メモリ250に格納される。CPU231は、メモリ250からプログラムを読出し、読出されたプログラムを実行する。
(Reproduction processing)
FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing image reproduction processing according to the first embodiment. A program according to this flowchart is stored in the memory 250. CPU 231 reads the program from memory 250 and executes the read program.
 まず、画像記憶部251の動画ファイルが指定されると、上記に述べた“スロー再生のパターンと区間の設定”の処理が実施される(ステップS1)。これにより、スロー再生速度を設定するための標準パターンと、スロー再生区間とが指定される。例えば、標準パターンとして、“左右対称パターン”が指定されたとする。 First, when a moving image file in the image storage unit 251 is designated, the above-described “slow playback pattern and section setting” processing is performed (step S1). Thereby, the standard pattern for setting the slow playback speed and the slow playback section are designated. For example, it is assumed that “right / left symmetrical pattern” is designated as the standard pattern.
 設定部3は、図4に示されたパターンに従って変化するようなスロー再生速度を算出し、当該変化を表す情報を、メモリ250に格納する(ステップS3)。 The setting unit 3 calculates a slow playback speed that changes according to the pattern shown in FIG. 4, and stores information representing the change in the memory 250 (step S3).
 次に、CPU231により画像記憶部251の動画像の再生が開始される(ステップS5)。具体的には、画像処理部7は、動画像の先頭の画像フレームから順次にデコードを開始する。 Next, the CPU 231 starts playback of the moving image in the image storage unit 251 (step S5). Specifically, the image processing unit 7 starts decoding sequentially from the first image frame of the moving image.
 画像処理部7からのデータは、表示装置212に動画像(映像)として再生される(ステップS7、ステップS8)。具体的には、フレーム生成部4は、画像処理部7が出力するデータから、メモリ250に格納された図4のパターンの情報に従って、再生フレームを生成する(ステップS7)。これにより、図4のスロー再生区間においては、間引処理または補間処理が実施されて、再生速度の変化に従って再生フレーム数が変化するように、再生フレームが生成される。再生部5は、フレーム生成部4から出力される時系列順の再生フレームを受付けて、受付けた再生フレームを、予め定められた再生フレームレートで切替えながら、表示デバイスコントローラ214に出力する(ステップS8)。したがって、表示装置212では、スロー再生区間では、再生速度の段階的な変化に従ってスロー再生が実施されるように、動画像が表示される。 The data from the image processing unit 7 is reproduced as a moving image (video) on the display device 212 (step S7, step S8). Specifically, the frame generation unit 4 generates a playback frame from the data output from the image processing unit 7 in accordance with the pattern information of FIG. 4 stored in the memory 250 (step S7). As a result, in the slow playback section of FIG. 4, thinning processing or interpolation processing is performed, and playback frames are generated so that the number of playback frames changes according to changes in playback speed. The playback unit 5 receives the playback frames in chronological order output from the frame generation unit 4, and outputs the received playback frames to the display device controller 214 while switching at a predetermined playback frame rate (step S8). ). Therefore, on the display device 212, in the slow playback section, the moving image is displayed so that the slow playback is performed according to the stepwise change in the playback speed.
 画像処理部7は、動画像の終端データ(最終の画像フレーム)をデコードしたか否かを判断する(ステップS9)。画像処理部7が、終端データをデコードしていないと判断すると(ステップS9でNO)、処理はステップS7に戻り、再生処理が継続する。一方、画像処理部7が、終端データをデコードしたことを判断すると(ステップS9でYES)、再生処理は終了する。 The image processing unit 7 determines whether or not the end data (final image frame) of the moving image has been decoded (step S9). If the image processing unit 7 determines that the terminal data has not been decoded (NO in step S9), the process returns to step S7, and the reproduction process continues. On the other hand, when the image processing unit 7 determines that the end data has been decoded (YES in step S9), the reproduction process ends.
 [実施の形態2]
 実施の形態2は、実施の形態1の変形例を示す。実施の形態2では、再生速度を可変に設定するための標準パターンの他の例が示される。
[Embodiment 2]
The second embodiment shows a modification of the first embodiment. In the second embodiment, another example of a standard pattern for variably setting the reproduction speed is shown.
 図6は、実施の形態2に係る非対称型パターンに従うスロー再生速度の変化を示す図である。図4のパターンは、スロー再生区間の中心時間CPについて左右対称であったのに対し、図6では左右非対象のパターンを示す。具体的には、再生区間の開始時点から中心時間CPまでの期間におけるスロー再生速度が段階的に変化するパターンと、中心時間CPから再生区間の終了時点までの期間におけるスロー再生速度が段階的に変化するパターンが、中心時間CPについて対称ではない。 FIG. 6 is a diagram showing changes in the slow playback speed according to the asymmetric pattern according to the second embodiment. The pattern of FIG. 4 is symmetrical with respect to the center time CP of the slow playback section, whereas FIG. 6 shows a left-right non-target pattern. Specifically, the slow playback speed in the period from the start time of the playback section to the central time CP changes stepwise, and the slow playback speed in the period from the central time CP to the end time of the playback section increases in stages. The changing pattern is not symmetrical about the central time CP.
 実施の形態2では、標準パターンとして図6の左右非対称パターンが選択された場合であっても、実施の形態1と同様に動画再生処理を実施することができる。これにより、ユーザは、動画像のうち所望区間に相当する部分の動画像については、再生速度を、左右非対称パターンに従って変化させながら、スロー再生される画像を鑑賞することができる。 In the second embodiment, even if the left / right asymmetric pattern of FIG. 6 is selected as the standard pattern, the moving image reproduction process can be performed in the same manner as in the first embodiment. As a result, the user can view the slow-played image while changing the playback speed according to the left-right asymmetric pattern for the portion of the moving image corresponding to the desired section.
 [実施の形態3]
 実施の形態3は、実施の形態1と2の変形例を示す。図7は、実施の形態3に係る手書きパターンに従うスロー再生速度の変化を示す図である。図7を参照して、実施の形態3では、スロー再生速度の変化を表すパターン32を、ユーザが手書き入力による描画の軌跡31に基づき設定することができる。
[Embodiment 3]
The third embodiment shows a modification of the first and second embodiments. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a change in the slow playback speed according to the handwritten pattern according to the third embodiment. Referring to FIG. 7, in the third embodiment, the user can set a pattern 32 representing a change in the slow playback speed based on a drawing trajectory 31 by handwriting input.
 具体的には、ユーザは、タッチパネル140の上に指またはペンにより所望のパターンを手書きする。設定部3は、操作受付部1により受付けられた操作内容から、ユーザの手書きによる描画の軌跡31を表すデータを抽出する。そして、設定部3は、抽出された軌跡31を、メモリ250の複数の標準パターンそれぞれにより表される階段状に変化する軌跡と照合する。照合の結果に基づき、設定部3は、複数の標準パターンのうちから手書きの軌跡31に最も類似した軌跡を表す1つのパターン32を選択する。軌跡は一筆書きで選択されても良いし、複数の選択点を結んだ軌跡として選択されても良い。 Specifically, the user writes a desired pattern on the touch panel 140 with a finger or a pen. The setting unit 3 extracts data representing the locus 31 of the user's handwritten drawing from the operation content received by the operation receiving unit 1. Then, the setting unit 3 collates the extracted trajectory 31 with a trajectory that changes in a step shape represented by each of the plurality of standard patterns in the memory 250. Based on the result of the collation, the setting unit 3 selects one pattern 32 representing a locus most similar to the handwritten locus 31 from among a plurality of standard patterns. The trajectory may be selected with a single stroke or may be selected as a trajectory connecting a plurality of selection points.
 実施の形態3では、標準パターンとして図7のパターンが選択された場合であっても、実施の形態1,2と同様に動画再生処理を実施することができる。これにより、ユーザは、動画像のうち所望区間に相当する部分の動画像について、再生速度を、好みの手書きのパターンに従って変化させながら、スロー再生される画像を鑑賞することができる。 In the third embodiment, even when the pattern of FIG. 7 is selected as the standard pattern, the moving image reproduction process can be performed as in the first and second embodiments. Thus, the user can view the slow-played image while changing the playback speed of the portion of the moving image corresponding to the desired section according to the desired handwritten pattern.
 上述した各実施の形態では、プログラムは、スマートフォン100に付属するメモリカード152などのように、CPU231がメモリドライバ151を介して読取り可能な記録媒体に記録させて、プログラム製品としてスマートフォン100に提供することもできる。あるいは、ネットワークを介してスマートフォン100のアンテナ120により受信しメモリ250の記憶領域へのダウンロードによって、プログラムを提供することもできる。 In each embodiment described above, the program is recorded on a recording medium that can be read by the CPU 231 via the memory driver 151, such as the memory card 152 attached to the smartphone 100, and provided to the smartphone 100 as a program product. You can also. Alternatively, the program can be provided by being received by the antenna 120 of the smartphone 100 via a network and downloaded to the storage area of the memory 250.
 提供されるプログラム製品は、プログラム自体と、プログラムが非一時的に記録された記録媒体とを含む。 The provided program product includes the program itself and a recording medium on which the program is recorded non-temporarily.
 [実施の形態の効果]
 各実施の形態では、画像再生装置は、動画像データのうち、ユーザが指定した2以上の画像フレームからなる部分動画像データを、スロー再生速度を段階的に変化させながら再生する。したがって、段階的に変化するスロー再生速度に、高いスロー倍率(例えば、“1/32”)の再生速度が含まれていたとしても、当該高いスロー倍率による最大スロー再生速度の期間を、当該部分動画像の再生区間のうちの一部分に限定することができる。その結果、動画像がスロー再生される場合であっても、再生時間が過度に長くなるのを抑制することができる。また、スロー再生速度が段階的に変化することにより、スロー再生による動画の視覚的効果を高めることができる。
[Effect of the embodiment]
In each embodiment, the image reproduction device reproduces partial moving image data composed of two or more image frames specified by the user among moving image data while gradually changing the slow reproduction speed. Therefore, even if the slow playback speed that changes stepwise includes a playback speed with a high slow magnification (for example, “1/32”), the period of the maximum slow playback speed with the high slow magnification is set to the relevant part. It can be limited to a part of the moving image playback section. As a result, even if the moving image is played back slowly, it is possible to suppress the playback time from becoming excessively long. Moreover, the visual effect of the moving image by slow reproduction can be heightened by changing the slow reproduction speed stepwise.
