Patent ID: 8654131

Claim:
A video image processing apparatus that performs display control of relevant information about an object included in video data, the video image processing apparatus comprising: an acquisition unit configured to acquire the relevant information about the object included in the video data; a frame evaluation unit configured to determine whether or not each frame satisfies an evaluation criteria based on a display state of an object in the each frame constituting the video data to thereby perform a frame evaluation; and a display timing determination unit configured to determine to start displaying relevant information about the object when the display timing determination unit determines that the number of frames satisfying the evaluation criteria extends continuously over a threshold value as the result of the frame evaluation by the frame evaluation unit, wherein the display timing determination unit does not determine to start displaying relevant information about the object even when there is one or more frame satisfying the evaluation criteria when the number of frames satisfying the evaluation criteria does not extend continuously over a threshold value as the result of the frame evaluation by the frame evaluation unit.
