Abstract:
One embodiment of an apparatus includes a reference position receiving unit configured to receive intermediate or end panorama reference position information input by a user, and a control unit configured to control an imaging device to begin generating a plurality of images to be used to generate a panoramic image based on the intermediate or end panorama reference position information input by the user after the reference position receiving unit receives the intermediate or end panorama reference position information.

Claim (Index 15):
A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with computer-readable instructions that, when executed by processing circuitry of an image processing apparatus, cause the processing circuitry to perform a method comprising:\n automatically determining an image capturing direction based on a movement of the image capturing apparatus with regard to a first direction and a second direction different from the first direction after receiving a start instruction for a panorama image capturing operation by a user; capturing a plurality of images while the image capturing apparatus is moved in the image capturing direction by the user after the image capturing direction is determined; generating a panorama image using at least a part of each of the plurality of images based on the image capturing direction; and displaying the panorama image on a display.
