Image processing device, non-transitory readable recording medium storing program, information processing system, and control method of image processing device

A non-transitory readable recording medium storing a program for causing a processor to execute a control method of an image processing device including the processor and a communication device, in which the program causes the processor to execute a control process of the image processing device, the control process comprising:

• acquiring a first video obtained by imaging outside scenery of a first vehicle by using the communication device;
• when detection is made that a second vehicle appears on the first video, implementing image processing that degrades visibility of a video with respect to a first image area encompassing an entirety of the second vehicle appearing on the first video until an entirety of a specific part of the second vehicle appears on the first video;
• and
• when detection is made that the entirety of the specific part of the second vehicle appears on the first video, ending the image processing with respect to the first image area and implementing image processing that degrades visibility of a video with respect to a second image area corresponding to the specific part of the second vehicle on the first video.

An information processing system comprising:

• a first vehicle;
• and
• a server configured to communicate with the first vehicle, wherein:
• the first vehicle is configured to transmit a first video obtained by imaging outside scenery to the server;
• the first vehicle or the server is configured to
• when the first vehicle or the server detects that a second vehicle appears on the first video, implement image processing that degrades visibility of a video with respect to a first image area encompassing an entirety of the second vehicle appearing on the first video until an entirety of a specific part of the second vehicle appears on the first video, and
• when the first vehicle or the server detects that the entirety of the specific part of the second vehicle appears on the first video, end the image processing with respect to the first image area and implement image processing that degrades visibility of a video with respect to a second image area corresponding to the specific part of the second vehicle on the first video;
• and
• the server is configured to transmit the first video to a client.

A control method of an image processing device including a communication device and a processor, the control method comprising:

• acquiring a first video obtained by imaging outside scenery of a first vehicle by using the communication device by the processor;
• when detection is made that a second vehicle appears on the first video, implementing image processing that degrades visibility of a video with respect to a first image area encompassing an entirety of the second vehicle appearing on the first video by the processor until an entirety of a specific part of the second vehicle appears on the first video;
• and
• when detection is made that the entirety of the specific part of the second vehicle appears on the first video, ending the image processing with respect to the first image area and implementing image processing that degrades visibility of a video with respect to a second image area corresponding to the specific part of the second vehicle on the first video by the processor.
