Then, the wristwatch device 2 controls the pattern of each display form of the display control units L1 to L24, so that the feature of the image P displayed on the image display terminal 1 or the viewer of the image P can be perceived. Impressions and images are expressed by the balance of the entire display control units L1 to L24. As a result, the user can intuitively enjoy the atmosphere of the image P without directly displaying the image P on the wristwatch device 2.
　図１の例では、画像Ｐに含まれる海と空との組合せからなる風景全体が持つ被写体としての特徴や、画像Ｐを見る者が感得し得る印象やイメージが、表示制御単位Ｌ１乃至Ｌ２４全体のバランスによって表現される。
　具体的には例えば、図１の画像Ｐが、真夏の昼間に撮像されたものであるとする。この場合には、紺碧の海と真っ白な雲との組み合わせからなる風景全体が持つ被写体としての特徴や、見る者が感得し得る、爽やかで開放的なイメージが、表示制御単位Ｌ１乃至Ｌ２４全体のバランスによって表現される。例えば、表示制御単位Ｌ１乃至Ｌ２４の夫々が、青色や白色を中心とする色に発光することで、画像Ｐの特徴、あるいは画像Ｐを見た者に与える印象やイメージが表現される。
　また例えば、画像Ｐが真夏の夕方に撮像されたものであるとする。この場合には、夕焼け色の海と雲との組み合わせからなる風景全体が持つ被写体としての特徴や、見る者が感得し得る、穏やかで優しいイメージが、表示制御単位Ｌ１乃至Ｌ２４全体のバランスによって表現される。例えば、表示制御単位Ｌ１乃至Ｌ２４の夫々が、オレンジ色や茶色を中心とする色に発光することで、画像Ｐの特徴、あるいは画像Ｐを見た者に与える印象やイメージが表現される。 In the example of FIG. 1, the characteristics of the entire landscape including the combination of the sea and the sky included in the image P as a subject, and the impressions and images that the viewer of the image P can perceive are the display control units L1 to L24. It is expressed by the overall balance.
Specifically, for example, it is assumed that the image P in FIG. 1 is captured in the midsummer daytime. In this case, the characteristics of the entire landscape, which is a combination of the azure sea and pure white clouds, and the refreshing and open image that the viewer can perceive are the entire display control units L1 to L24. It is expressed by the balance of. For example, each of the display control units L1 to L24 emits light in a color centered on blue or white, thereby expressing the characteristics of the image P or the impression or image given to the person who sees the image P.
Further, for example, it is assumed that the image P is taken in the evening of midsummer. In this case, the characteristics of the entire landscape, which is a combination of the sunset-colored sea and clouds, and the calm and gentle image that the viewer can perceive are determined by the balance of the entire display control units L1 to L24. Be expressed. For example, each of the display control units L1 to L24 emits light in a color centered on orange or brown, thereby expressing the characteristics of the image P or the impression or image given to the person who sees the image P.
　ここで、腕時計装置２が、画像Ｐの特徴やイメージを、表示制御単位Ｌ全体のバランスで表現する際に用いられる手法は特に限定されないが、本実施形態では以下の手法が採用されている。
　即ち、まず、クラスター分析等の画像解析技術が用いられることで、画像Ｐの特徴を示す情報（以下、「特徴情報」と呼ぶ）が抽出される。特徴情報には、色に関する情報として、例えば、色の色相、明度、彩度等を示す情報が含まれる。特徴情報の抽出は、画像Ｐをｍ個（ｍは１以上の整数値）の領域Ｂに区分して、区分された領域Ｂ（以下、「区分領域Ｂ」と呼ぶ）毎に行われる。図１の例では、画像Ｐを区分領域Ｂ１乃至Ｂ９に区分して、区分された９個の区分領域Ｂ１乃至Ｂ９の夫々の特徴情報が抽出される。
　なお、図１に示す画像Ｐの上部及び下部の夫々に破線で囲まれた領域に配置された各種の操作ボタン等は、特徴情報の抽出の対象から除外される。 Here, the method used by the wristwatch device 2 to express the features and images of the image P with the balance of the entire display control unit L is not particularly limited, but the following method is adopted in the present embodiment.
That is, first, by using an image analysis technique such as cluster analysis, information indicating the features of the image P (hereinafter, referred to as "feature information") is extracted. The feature information includes, for example, information indicating color hue, lightness, saturation, and the like as information on color. The feature information is extracted by dividing the image P into m areas B (m is an integer value of 1 or more) and each divided area B (hereinafter, referred to as "division area B"). In the example of FIG. 1, the image P is divided into the division areas B1 to B9, and the characteristic information of each of the nine division areas B1 to B9 is extracted.
It should be noted that various operation buttons and the like arranged in the areas surrounded by broken lines in the upper part and the lower part of the image P shown in FIG. 1 are excluded from the target of extracting the feature information.
　次に、区分領域Ｂ毎に抽出された特徴情報に基づいて、ｎ個の表示制御単位Ｌの夫々の表示形態のパターンが制御される。表示形態のパターンの制御は、ｍ個の区分領域Ｂの夫々に対応するように行われる。例えば、図１に示すように、画像Ｐが区分領域Ｂ１乃至Ｂ９に区分された場合には、区分領域Ｂ１乃至Ｂ９の夫々の特徴情報が抽出される。そして、抽出された特徴情報に基づいて、表示制御単位Ｌ１乃至Ｌ２４の夫々の表示形態のパターンが制御される。つまり、画像表示端末１に表示されている画像Ｐの特徴情報が再構成されて腕時計装置２に表示される。
　ここで、ｍ個の区分領域Ｂ毎の特徴情報を抽出する手法は特に限定されない。なお、本実施形態では、区分領域Ｂ１乃至Ｂ９の夫々を構成する複数の画素のうち、１以上の画素からなる領域Ａ（以下、「抽出領域Ａ」と呼ぶ）の単位で特徴情報が抽出される。例えば、区分領域Ｂ１の特徴情報の抽出は、区分領域Ｂ１のうち、抽出領域Ａ１の特徴情報を抽出することで行われる。また例えば、区分領域Ｂ３の特徴情報の抽出は、区分領域Ｂ３のうち、抽出領域Ａ２の特徴情報を抽出することで行われる。なお、個々の区分領域Ｂのうち、どの領域を抽出領域Ａとするかは特に限定されない。例えば個々の区分領域Ｂの夫々で一番多く用いられている色が集中している領域を抽出領域Ａとしてもよいし、ランダムで決定されるようにしてもよい。 Next, the pattern of each display form of the n display control units L is controlled based on the feature information extracted for each division area B. The control of the pattern of the display form is performed so as to correspond to each of the m division areas B. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, when the image P is divided into the division areas B1 to B9, the feature information of each of the division areas B1 to B9 is extracted. Then, based on the extracted feature information, the pattern of each display form of the display control units L1 to L24 is controlled. That is, the feature information of the image P displayed on the image display terminal 1 is reconstructed and displayed on the wristwatch device 2.
Here, the method for extracting the feature information for each of the m division regions B is not particularly limited. In the present embodiment, feature information is extracted in units of a region A (hereinafter, referred to as “extraction region A”) composed of one or more pixels among a plurality of pixels constituting each of the division regions B1 to B9. NS. For example, the feature information of the division area B1 is extracted by extracting the feature information of the extraction area A1 from the division area B1. Further, for example, the feature information of the division area B3 is extracted by extracting the feature information of the extraction area A2 from the division area B3. It should be noted that, of the individual division regions B, which region is designated as the extraction region A is not particularly limited. For example, the region in which the most frequently used colors are concentrated in each of the individual division regions B may be the extraction region A, or may be randomly determined.
　また、ｍ個の区分領域Ｂの夫々に対して、ｎ個の表示制御単位Ｌのうちどの表示制御単位Ｌを対応させるのかは特に限定されない。例えば図１の例では、区分領域Ｂ１に表示制御単位Ｌ１が常に対応するように固定してもよい。また例えば、対応関係を固定させずに、区分領域Ｂ１に表示制御単位Ｌ２が対応したり、表示制御単位Ｌ３が対応したりするように変動させてもよい。
　また、ｍ個の区分領域Ｂの夫々と、ｎ個の表示制御単位Ｌとの対応関係は１対１である必要もない。例えば図１の例では、区分領域Ｂ１に表示制御単位Ｌ１及びＬ１２が対応し、区分領域Ｂ３に表示制御単位Ｌ１０が対応し、区分領域Ｂ５に表示制御単位Ｌ３及びＬ１８が対応している。また、区分領域Ｂ６、Ｂ７、及びＢ９の夫々に、表示制御単位Ｌ２、Ｌ６、及びＬ７の夫々が対応している。 Further, which of the n display control units L is associated with each of the m division areas B is not particularly limited. For example, in the example of FIG. 1, the display control unit L1 may be fixed so as to always correspond to the division area B1. Further, for example, the display control unit L2 may correspond to the division area B1 or the display control unit L3 may correspond to the division area B1 without fixing the correspondence.
Further, the correspondence between each of the m division areas B and the n display control units L does not have to be one-to-one. For example, in the example of FIG. 1, the display control units L1 and L12 correspond to the division area B1, the display control unit L10 corresponds to the division area B3, and the display control units L3 and L18 correspond to the division area B5. Further, each of the display control units L2, L6, and L7 corresponds to each of the division areas B6, B7, and B9.
　このため、図１の例では、区分領域Ｂ１のうち抽出領域Ａ１の特徴情報が抽出されて、その特徴情報に基づいて、表示制御単位Ｌ１及びＬ１２の表示形態のパターンが制御される。また、区分領域Ｂ３のうち抽出領域Ａ２の特徴情報が抽出されて、その特徴情報に基づいて、表示制御単位Ｌ１０の表示形態のパターンが制御される。また、区分領域Ｂ５のうち抽出領域Ａ３の特徴情報が抽出されて、その特徴情報に基づいて、表示制御単位Ｌ３及びＬ１８の表示形態のパターンが制御される。また、区分領域Ｂ６のうち抽出領域Ａ４の特徴情報が抽出されて、その特徴情報に基づいて、表示制御単位Ｌ２の表示形態のパターンが制御される。また、区分領域Ｂ７のうち抽出領域Ａ５の特徴情報が抽出されて、その特徴情報に基づいて、表示制御単位Ｌ６の表示形態のパターンが制御される。また、区分領域Ｂ９のうち抽出領域Ａ６の特徴情報が抽出されて、その特徴情報に基づいて、表示制御単位Ｌ７の表示形態のパターンが制御される。 Therefore, in the example of FIG. 1, the feature information of the extraction region A1 of the division region B1 is extracted, and the pattern of the display form of the display control units L1 and L12 is controlled based on the feature information. Further, the feature information of the extraction region A2 of the division region B3 is extracted, and the pattern of the display form of the display control unit L10 is controlled based on the feature information. Further, the feature information of the extraction region A3 in the division region B5 is extracted, and the pattern of the display form of the display control units L3 and L18 is controlled based on the feature information. Further, the feature information of the extraction region A4 of the division region B6 is extracted, and the pattern of the display form of the display control unit L2 is controlled based on the feature information. Further, the feature information of the extraction region A5 of the division region B7 is extracted, and the pattern of the display form of the display control unit L6 is controlled based on the feature information. Further, the feature information of the extraction region A6 of the division region B9 is extracted, and the pattern of the display form of the display control unit L7 is controlled based on the feature information.
　ここで、図１に示す抽出領域Ａ１乃至Ａ６は、説明を簡略化させるための例示に過ぎない。したがって、抽出領域Ａが描画されていない区分領域Ｂ２、Ｂ４、及びＢ８の夫々についても、図示せぬ抽出領域Ａの特徴情報が抽出され得る。なお、「抽出され得る」としたのは、必ずしもｍ個の区分領域Ｂのすべてから特徴情報が抽出されなくてもよいことを意味している。 Here, the extraction regions A1 to A6 shown in FIG. 1 are merely examples for simplifying the explanation. Therefore, the feature information of the extraction region A (not shown) can be extracted for each of the division regions B2, B4, and B8 in which the extraction region A is not drawn. The phrase "can be extracted" means that the feature information does not necessarily have to be extracted from all of the m division regions B.

　以下、図４を参照して、本実施形態に係る画像表示端末１において実行される、カラーピック表示処理を実行するための機能的構成について説明する。 By collaborating with various hardware and various software of the information processing system of FIG. 2 including the image display terminal 1 of FIG. 3, various processes including color pick display processing in the information processing system can be executed. As a result, the user can use this service.
The "color pick display process" refers to a process executed by the information processing system of FIG. 2 in order to provide this service.
Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 4, a functional configuration for executing the color pick display process executed in the image display terminal 1 according to the present embodiment will be described.

　以上、本発明の一実施形態について説明したが、本発明は、上述の実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の目的を達成できる範囲での変形、改良等は本発明に含まれるものとみなす。 Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and modifications, improvements, and the like within the range in which the object of the present invention can be achieved are included in the present invention. Consider it as.
　例えば、上述の実施形態では、画像表示端末１及び腕時計装置２の管理者は、同一のユーザであることを前提として説明しているが、これに限定されない。即ち、画像表示端末１の管理者と腕時計装置２の管理者とが異なってもよい。この場合、例えば、画像表示端末１を管理するユーザが、腕時計装置２を管理する他のユーザの好みの画像Ｐを画像表示端末１に表示させて、上述の本サービスを利用してもよい。 For example, in the above-described embodiment, the administrator of the image display terminal 1 and the wristwatch device 2 is described on the premise that they are the same user, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the administrator of the image display terminal 1 and the administrator of the wristwatch device 2 may be different. In this case, for example, the user who manages the image display terminal 1 may display the favorite image P of another user who manages the wristwatch device 2 on the image display terminal 1 and use the above-mentioned service.
　また例えば、図１の例では、画像表示端末１に表示された画像Ｐは、９つの区分領域に区分されているが、これは例示に過ぎない。上述したように、画像表示端末１に表示された画像Ｐは、ｍ個の区分領域Ｂに区分することができる。 Further, for example, in the example of FIG. 1, the image P displayed on the image display terminal 1 is divided into nine division areas, but this is only an example. As described above, the image P displayed on the image display terminal 1 can be divided into m division areas B.
　また例えば、図１の例では、表示部２１１は、２４個の表示制御単位Ｌ１乃至Ｌ２４によって形成されているが、これは例示に過ぎない。上述したように、表示部２１１は、ｎ個の表示制御単位Ｌに区分することができる。つまり、表示制御単位Ｌは、２４個未満（例えば１２個など）であってもよいし、２４個を超える数（例えば３６個など）であってもよい。 Further, for example, in the example of FIG. 1, the display unit 211 is formed by 24 display control units L1 to L24, but this is only an example. As described above, the display unit 211 can be divided into n display control units L. That is, the display control unit L may be less than 24 (for example, 12) or more than 24 (for example, 36).
　また例えば、図３の例では、画像Ｐは画像表示端末１の記憶部１８の一領域に設けられた画像ＤＢ１８１に記憶されて管理されているが、これは例示に過ぎない。例えば、画像ＤＢ１８１に記憶させずに所定のクラウドに記憶されている画像Ｐを一時的にダウンロードしてもよいし、所定のクラウドに記憶されている画像Ｐにリンクさせてもよい。 Further, for example, in the example of FIG. 3, the image P is stored and managed in the image DB 181 provided in one area of the storage unit 18 of the image display terminal 1, but this is only an example. For example, the image P stored in the predetermined cloud may be temporarily downloaded without being stored in the image DB 181, or may be linked to the image P stored in the predetermined cloud.
　また、図２に示すシステム構成、及び図３に示す画像表示端末１のハードウェア構成は、いずれも本発明の目的を達成するための例示に過ぎず、特に限定されない。 Further, the system configuration shown in FIG. 2 and the hardware configuration of the image display terminal 1 shown in FIG. 3 are merely examples for achieving the object of the present invention, and are not particularly limited.
　また、図４に示す機能ブロック図は、例示に過ぎず、特に限定されない。即ち、上述した一連の処理を全体として実行できる機能が情報処理システムに備えられていれば足り、この機能を実現するためにどのような機能ブロックを用いるのかは、特に図４の例に限定されない。例えば、図４には記憶部１８の一領域に画像ＤＢ１８１が設けられているが、所定のクラウドに記憶されている画像Ｐを一時的にダウンロードする手法やリンクさせる手法が採用された場合には、画像ＤＢ１８１を設ける必要はない。 Further, the functional block diagram shown in FIG. 4 is merely an example and is not particularly limited. That is, it suffices if the information processing system is provided with a function capable of executing the above-mentioned series of processes as a whole, and what kind of functional block is used to realize this function is not particularly limited to the example of FIG. .. For example, in FIG. 4, the image DB 181 is provided in one area of the storage unit 18, but when a method of temporarily downloading an image P stored in a predetermined cloud or a method of linking the image P is adopted, , It is not necessary to provide the image DB181.
　また、機能ブロックの存在場所も、図４に限定されず、任意でよい。
