Abstract
A diagnosis supporting device includes an imaging unit that images a subject, an eye gaze detector that detects an eye gaze direction of the subject from an image captured by the imaging unit, a gaze point detector that detects a gaze point of the subject in a display area of a display on the basis of the eye gaze direction, and an output controller that causes the display area to display a diagnostic image composed by superposing a pattern image onto a natural image.
Claims8
A diagnosis supporting device comprising:
- an imaging unit that images a subject;
- an eye gaze detector that detects an eye gaze direction of the subject from an image imaged by the imaging unit;
- a gaze point detector that detects a gaze point of the subject in a display area of a display on the basis of the eye gaze direction;
- and
- an output controller that causes the display area to display a diagnostic image composed by superposing a pattern image including a geometric pattern onto a part of a natural image in which most of the display area is occupied by a person, an animal, or a plant, wherein
- at least one of hue, brightness, and chroma in the pattern image is similar to or matches hue, brightness, and chroma in a part adjacent to or slightly away from the part of the natural image.
