Abstract:
The plurality of captured images are stored as original linages in the image storage unit. A display region to be displayed in an enlarging manner in the panoramic images is set. It is determined whether or not the display region is in an imaging range of the original image. In a case where NO is determined, the display region is trimmed from the panoramic image and displayed on the display unit in an enlarging manner, and in a case where it is determined that the display region is in an imaging range of the original image, a corresponding region corresponding to the display region is trimmed from the original image and displayed on the display unit.

Claim (Index 14):
An image processing method comprising:\n an image acquisition step of acquiring a plurality of captured images obtained by continuously executing imaging while moving an imaging range of an imaging unit in a horizontal direction, the plurality of captured images being obtained by executing imaging while causing the imaging ranges to be partially duplicated before and after successive imaging; a panoramic image generation step of generating a panoramic image in which a plurality of reduced images obtained by performing a reducing process on the plurality of captured images are connected, from the plurality of captured images acquired in the image acquisition step; an image storage control step of storing the plurality of captured images before the reducing process in the panoramic image generation step as original images in an image storage unit; a display control step of displaying the panoramic image generated in the panoramic image generation step on a display unit; a display region setting step of setting a display region to be displayed in an enlarging manner in the panoramic images displayed on the display unit; and a determination step of determining whether or not the display region set in the display region setting step is in an imaging range of the original image, wherein the display control step includes trimming the display region from the panoramic image and displays the display region on the display unit in an enlarging manner in a case where NO is determined in the determination step, and trimming a corresponding region corresponding to the display region from the original image stored in the image storage unit and displaying the corresponding region on the display unit in a case where it is determined in the determination step that the display region is in the imaging range of the original image.
