Information processing system, image processing apparatus, storage medium and information processing method

An image processing apparatus for imaging an infrared image, the image processing apparatus comprising:

• a light configured to be turned on to emit infrared rays and turned off to stop emission of the infrared rays;
• storage memory storing computer-readable instructions and at least one processor for executing the instructions so that the image processing apparatus is configured to at least perform:
• an imaging of infrared images including a first acquisition which acquires a first infrared image that is imaged when the light is turned on and a second acquisition which acquires a second infrared image that is imaged when the light is turned off;
• a comparison which compares a first analysis result of the first infrared image that is imaged when infrared rays are emitted with a second analysis result of the second infrared image that is imaged when the infrared rays are not emitted;
• and
• a calculation which calculates an evaluation value based on the comparison result, and a determination, based on the evaluation value, that the light be moved to a different location having less light noise and providing notification of the determination that the light be moved to a different location having less light noise.

A non-transitory storage medium storing an information processing program, wherein the information processing program causes a computer comprising a light configured to emit infrared rays and an imaging device including image processing circuitry and configured to image an infrared image to perform:

• control to turn on and turn off the light;
• a first acquisition which acquires a first infrared image that is imaged by the imaging device when the light is turned on by the control;
• a second acquisition which acquires a second infrared image that is imaged by the imaging device when the light is turned off by the control;
• a comparison which compares a first analysis result of the first infrared image that is acquired in the first acquisition with a second analysis result of the second infrared image that is acquired in the second acquisition;
• and
• a calculation which calculates an evaluation value based on the comparison result, and a determination, based on the evaluation value, that the light be moved to a different location having less light noise and providing notification of the determination that the light be moved to a different location having less light noise.

An information processing method in the information processing system comprising a light configured to emit infrared rays and an imaging device including a processing circuitry and configured to image an infrared image, comprising:

• (a) turning on and turning off the light;
• (b) acquiring a first infrared image that is imaged by the imaging device when the light is turned on;
• (c) acquiring a second infrared image that is imaged by the imaging device when the light is turned off;
• (d) comparing a first analysis result of the first infrared image that is acquired when the light is turned on with a second analysis result of the second infrared image that is acquired when the light emitting is turned off;
• and
• (e) calculating an evaluation value based on the comparison result, and determining, based on the evaluation value, that the light be moved to a different location having less light noise and providing notification of the determination that the light be moved to a different location having less light noise.
