In addition, selection of a display image and movement of an image are given based on a user's movement and biometric information history. As described above, a large amount of images can be browsed by an intuitive operation using a tactile sensation.
A portable device will be described as an embodiment of an image display device. FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a portable device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 are diagrams showing how the portable device is operated and displayed in the embodiment. In these FIG. 1, 1 is an image input unit, 2 is an image storage unit, 3 is a display image generation unit, 4 is a menu unit, 5 is a sensor unit, 6 is an analysis unit, and 7 is a display unit. These constitute the portable device 8. Reference numeral 9 denotes a display image displayed on the display unit 7. Here, a digital photograph of a still image will be described as an image.
In FIG. 1, a digital photograph is input from an image input unit 1 and stored and stored in an image storage unit 2. Input to the image input unit 1 may be from the camera or from the outside (network or the like). The entity of the image storage unit 2 is an HDD, CD, DVD, SD, or the like. In the case of a recording medium such as a CD, DVD, or SD, it is physically inserted.
Next, display (reproduction) is performed as follows. The user instructs a basic method of display from the menu unit 4. Also, an image group to be displayed is indicated (not shown). The image group here is designated by the same folder, recent image, specific event, or the like. The analysis unit 6 sends an instruction to the display image generation unit 3 in response to inputs from the menu unit 4 and the sensor unit 5, and the display image generation unit 3 reads the image from the image storage unit 2 and processes it into a form for display. The image is sent to the display unit 7 to display an image.
The user operates the portable device 8 by giving a physical stimulus by tactile sensation. Here, the instruction is given by “tapping”. For this reason, the sensor unit 5 detects the strength, direction, interval, and the like that are hit from the outside.
As a specific operation example, FIG. 2 shows a case where “single display” is selected. In the case of “single image display”, digital photos are displayed one by one from a designated image group in principle. Here, the transition to the next image (transition in editing terms) is realized by the user hitting the portable device 8. An example of this is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2 (a), when tapping from the left side, the display image 9 moves to the right side and disappears (slide out), and a new image appears. Further, as shown in FIG. 2B, when tapping from the front, the display image 9 becomes smaller and disappears (zoom out), and a new image appears. Change the speed of movement depending on how you strike. When you hit it hard or fast, it moves quickly. For example, the following variations can be considered for the way of striking and moving. As a result, an intuitive operation is realized by a physical action by tactile sensation.
Tap from the left Slide to the right Slide from the right Slide to the left Slide from the top Slide from the bottom Tap from the bottom Slide from the top Tap from the front Zoom out or fade out Tap after the zoom in Zoom out disappears Can also be used. That is, image display and action (operation to tap the mobile device 8) are repeated, and a transition of the image is recorded to create a scenario file. Then, by playing along the scenario file, you can view the image as it was edited.
Next, FIG. 3 shows a case where “image group display” is selected.
FIG. 3A shows a case where “pond” is selected. This example is a metaphor that attracts frogs in a pond. A plurality of display images 9 are drifting in the display unit 7. Here, when the user taps from the left side, the display image 9 is collected at the hit position. In this process, the images are overlapped or separated, and as a result, the user can see many images. Here, the movement is changed depending on how to strike. For example, the more you tap, the faster the images gather. When the lapse of time has elapsed after the hitting, the display may be displayed as it is, but a plurality of display images 9 may begin to drift in the display unit 7 again.
Next, FIG. 3B shows a case where “mountain” is selected. This example is a metaphor that breaks down the mountains. A plurality of display images 9 are displayed in the display unit 7 so as to overlap each other. Here, if the user strikes from the right side, the mountain collapses on the left side, so that the overlapping images are displayed apart, and the user can see many images. Here, the movement is changed depending on how to strike. For example, the harder it strikes, the more it collapses and the smaller the overlap. When the time elapses after the hitting is stopped, the display may be displayed as it is, or a plurality of display images 9 may be displayed again in the display unit 7 again.
In either case of FIGS. 3A and 3B, an intuitive operation using a physical action, that is, browsing and viewing of a large number of digital photographs using a tactile sensation UI is realized.
In the above, a sensor may be provided exclusively, but a gyro sensor for knowing position information can also be used. The display image is not limited to a photograph but may be an image synthesized by CG.

FIG. 6 is a configuration diagram of the music packet 30, which includes a music ID 31, music sensitivity information 32, and music data 33. FIG. 7 is a sensitivity map diagram, and FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a display state. Here, a digital photograph of a still image will be described as an image.
In FIG. 4, the digital photograph is input from the image input unit 1, and the image sensitivity information 22 is extracted by the image feature extraction unit 12. After that, it is packetized into image packets 20 and stored and stored in the image storage unit 2. Input to the image input unit 1 may be from the camera or from the outside (network or the like). Music is input from the music input unit 11, and music sensitivity information 32 is extracted by the music feature extraction unit 13. Thereafter, it is packetized into music packets 30 and stored and stored in the music storage unit 14. The input to the music input unit 11 may be from a music player output or from the outside (network or the like).
FIG. 5 shows the format of the image packet 20. The image ID 21 is a unique number of the image. The image sensitivity information 22 indicates the sensitivity information of the image as a numerical value. The image data 23 is the image itself. FIG. 6 shows the format of the music packet 30. As in the case of the image, the music ID 31 indicates the music unique number, the music sensitivity information 32 indicates the music sensitivity information by numerical values, and the music data 33 is the music itself.
Here, sensitivity information (image sensitivity information 22, music sensitivity information 32) will be described. FIG. 7 is a sensitivity map, and the definition of the axis is shown in FIG. The x axis is the intensity axis, the right side is dynamic and the left side is static. The y-axis is warmth, the upper side is warm, and the lower side is cold. Each axis is quantified and the magnitude of the absolute value of the value indicates the degree. Here, the maximum value of the score is 50.
An example of image sensitivity mapping is shown in FIG. “Intensity = 40, Warmth = 20” of the image sensitivity information 22 shown in FIG. 5 indicates “very dynamic and somewhat warm”.
Dynamic, warm = “flame”
Static, warm = “smile”
Static, cold = “snow scene”
Dynamic, cold = “waterfall”
An example of music sensitivity mapping is shown in FIG. “Intensity = −40, Warmth = −40” of the music sensitivity information 32 shown in FIG. 6 indicates that it is “pretty static and cold”.
Dynamic, warm = “pops”
Static, warm = “singing”
Static, cold = “Enka”
Dynamic, cold = “lock”
Next, display (reproduction) will be described. The display here is based on a picture-story display that sequentially displays a plurality of still images, a so-called slide show. In addition to simply switching and displaying still images sequentially, a visual effect is added at the time of switching. It is called a transition in edit terms, and it performs slide-out, fade-out, fade-in, etc. Furthermore, motion is added to the still image. The still image is subjected to camerawork-like movements such as zooming, panning, and tilting. By zooming in on a specific object such as a person, a strong impression can be given to the viewing user. In addition, music is added to the image playback. Thus, still image browsing can be realized as if viewing moving image content.
Next, a user operation will be described. The user selects a menu in the menu section 4. First, the case where shuffle is selected in FIG. 4 will be described. As shown in FIG. 8, the user instructs the contents of the slide show by shaking the portable device 8 up and down and left and right. The instruction of contents here is not a detailed and accurate editing operation like editing software on a personal computer, but an instruction for selecting an atmosphere of how to move a slide show and selecting an image. Here, the atmosphere of movement is called a style. The style corresponds to the sensitivity map of FIG. 7, and has the following correspondence, for example. In intense style, intense visual effects, images and music are selected.
Dynamic, warm = “Ukiuki”
Static, warm = “hearty”
Static, cold = “Samzamu”
Dynamic, cold = “喝”
The mobile device 8 senses the motion shaken by the sensor unit 5 and analyzes the motion by the analysis unit 6, and the slide show generation unit 15 generates final video-like content.
How to swing, that is, the shuffling movement and the content instruction will be described. The way of swinging is broken down into stroke size, speed and time. Give each of the following meanings.
(1) Stroke size-style (warmth)
The larger the size, the warmer the style, images, and music are selected. Conversely, if it is shaken small, a cold one is selected.
(2) Shaking speed-style (intensity)
The faster you choose, the more intense the style, the images, and the music. Conversely, if you shake gently, the quieter one is selected.
(3) Time If the shaking time is short, recent images will be mixed, and if it is long, old and new images will be mixed. The longer the image is shaken, the more the old image is dug up.
In addition, a variation may be added to the instruction content by a shaking direction, a turning operation, or a fusion of movements.
Next, with reference to FIG. 4, a case where action recording is selected will be described. In this case, the user's action corresponds to the shaking operation described above. That is, the user carries the portable device 8, senses various information with the sensor unit 5, and records it in the history recording unit 10. During reproduction, the analysis unit 6 analyzes the information in the history recording unit 10, and the slide show generation unit 15 generates final video-like content.
Here, the various types of information are history such as the number of steps per day, movement distance, or biological information such as pulse, blood pressure, and body temperature, which means an action history. Based on these, the daily behavior is evaluated. If these numbers are high, it is determined that the day was busy, and video content with intense style, images, and music is generated and displayed. On the other hand, if the numerical value is low, it is determined that the day is a quiet day, and a moving picture content of a quiet style, image, and music is generated and displayed.
The relationship between the action record and the content is not limited to this. If it is determined that the day is a busy day, quiet content may be generated for the sake of healing. In addition, here, the daily action record is assumed assuming a use scene in which the action of the day is changed at the end of the day, but it is not limited to one day, and may be one hour or one week. As described above, a large amount of digital photos can be viewed and viewed by an intuitive operation with a physical action based on tactile sensation.
In this embodiment, the mobile terminal is described. However, the mobile terminal is not limited to the mobile terminal, and may be divided into a main body and a sensor in a stationary device. For example, the main unit may be a stationary device such as a digital TV or a DVD recorder, and the sensor unit may be a portable terminal device. Also, the image to be handled need not be limited to a still image, and may be a moving image, or may not be taken by an individual, but may be downloaded from a broadcast or web.
The portable device according to the present invention realizes editing and browsing of a still image by an intuitive operation by tactile sensation. For this reason, it is effective as an image browsing function of a digital camera, PDA, mobile phone with camera, and car navigation system. It can also be used in stationary devices such as digital TVs and DVD recorders.
