Abstract
An image processing device may include a control unit. The control unit may be operable, in a first mode, to control display on a display screen of a representative image of a group of images and, in a second mode, to control display on the display screen of an image of the group of images corresponding to a posture of the device. In addition, the control unit may be operable to switch between operation in the first mode and the second mode.
Claims29
An image processing device comprising:
- circuitry configured to:
- control display of each image in a group of images on a display screen according to a manipulation method associated with the group of images from a plurality of different manipulation methods for the image processing device manipulated by a user,
- wherein the manipulation method comprises changing a posture of the display screen, and wherein the circuitry is configured to control display of manipulation support information on the display screen, the manipulation support information comprising an indication of a type of posture change corresponding to the manipulation method, and
- wherein each of the manipulation methods is associated with a characteristic of images of the group of images, and wherein the characteristic is similarity of feature amount determined by comparing feature amounts between adjacent images of the group of images.
