Abstract:
1. An image display controller for displaying an image obtained by photographing an object, comprising: a detection unit configured to detect the object in the image; an identification unit configured to identify a predetermined specific area of the object distinguishably from a remaining area exclusive of the specific area; a first generation unit configured to generate a first display frame for enclosing the specific area; a second generation unit configured to generate a second display frame for enclosing the remaining area; and a display control unit configured to display the first and second display frames on a screen together with the image; wherein the specific area is a face area of the object, and the remaining area is a human body area of the object, and wherein said second generation unit generates the second display frame in a manner adjacent to the first display frame; the image display controller further comprising: a first angle detection unit configured to obtain face detection angle information by detecting at least one of a yaw-direction angle indicative of a rotational angle of the face area in a horizontal direction, a roll-direction angle indicative of a rotational angle of the face area in a vertical direction, and a pitch-direction angle indicative of an inclination of the face area with respect to the vertical direction, and a second angle detection unit configured to obtain human body detection angle information by detecting at least one of a yaw-direction angle indicative of a rotational angle of the human body area in the horizontal direction, a roll-direction angle indicative of a rotational angle of the human body area in the vertical direction, and a pitch-direction angle indicative of an inclination of the human body area with respect to the vertical direction; wherein before displaying the first and second display frames on the screen, said display control unit changes at least one of the yaw-direction angle, the roll-direction angle, and the pitch-direction angle of each of the first and second display frames based on the face detection angle information and the human body detection angle information; and wherein at least one of the detection unit, the identification unit, the first generation unit, the second generation unit, the display control unit, the first angle detection unit and the second angle detection unit are implemented, at least in part, by a hardware processor and memory.
