Abstract
An information processing apparatus that includes a camera unit including an imaging sensor that captures an image; a display that displays an image; and a processor that: clips an image region having a size corresponding to a photography zoom power from an image captured by the camera unit; adjusts a clipping position at a time of clipping the image region from the image; and controls the display to display the clipped image region on the display.
Claims20
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a display that displays an image captured by a camera unit including an image sensor;
- and
- circuitry configured to
- control the camera unit to clip an image region having a size corresponding to a photography zoom power from the image captured by the camera unit;
- detect a user input, wherein the user input is a single continuous dragging gesture performed by the user's finger;
- control the camera unit to adjust center coordinates of a clipping position at a time of clipping the image region from the image without changing the photography zoom power by multiplying a parameter indicative of a movement of the user input by a predetermined scale factor;
- and
- control the display to display the clipped image region on the display.
A method performed by an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
- controlling a display to display an image captured by a camera unit including an image sensor;
- controlling the camera unit to clip an image region having a size corresponding to a photography zoom power from the image;
- detecting a user input, wherein the user input is a simile continuous dragging gesture performed by the user's finger;
- controlling the camera unit to adjust center coordinates of a clipping position at a time of clipping the image region from the image without changing the photography zoom power by multiplying a parameter indicative of a movement of the user input by a predetermined scale factor;
- and
- controlling the display to display the clipped image region.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer-program instructions, which when executed by an information processing apparatus, cause the information processing apparatus to:
- control a display to display, an image captured by a camera unit including an image sensor;
- control the camera unit to clip an image region having a size corresponding to a photography zoom power from the image;
- detect a user input, wherein the user input is a single continuous dragging gesture performed by the user's finger;
- control the camera unit to adjust center coordinates of a clipping position at a time of clipping the image region from the image without changing the photography zoom power by multiplying a parameter indicative of a movement of the user input by a predetermined scale factor;
- and
- control the display to display the clipped image region.
