Abstract
There is provided a print control device that causes a printing device to perform printing, the print control device including: a specifying section that specifies, as a print target, an area which is continuous in a predetermined range of colors based on a captured image captured by an image capturing sensor and an object distance of each pixel of the captured image; and a control section that generates print data corresponding to the specified print target and causes the printing device to perform printing on the print target based on the print data.
Claims12
A print control device that causes a printing device to perform printing, the print control device comprising:
- a specifying section that specifies, as a print target, an area of a captured image captured by an image capturing sensor based on both the captured image and an object distance of each pixel of the captured image, the specifying section specifying the area of the captured image by repeatedly detecting adjacent pixels of the captured image that are continuous relative to each other and have colors in a predetermined range of colors and object distance in another predetermined range of the object distance;
- and
- a control section that generates print data corresponding to the specified print target and causes the printing device to perform printing on the print target based on the print data.
A print control device that causes a printing device to perform printing, the print control device comprising:
- a specifying section that specifies, as a print target, an area of a captured image captured by an image capturing sensor based on both the captured image and an object distance of each pixel of the captured image;
- and
- a control section that generates print data corresponding to the specified print target and causes the printing device to perform printing on the print target based on the print data,
- the control section generating the print data by cutting original print data associated with the print target in accordance with a shape of the print target, and causing the printing device to perform printing on the print target based on the print data, and
- the control section obtaining a facing shape of the print target when facing the print target based on a view angle of the captured image included in a captured image group, generating the print data by cutting the original print data in accordance with the facing shape of the print target, and causing the printing device to perform printing on the print target based on the print data.
A print control device that causes a printing device to perform printing, the print control device comprising:
- a specifying section that specifies, as a print target, an area of a captured image captured by an image capturing sensor based on both the captured image and an object distance of each pixel of the captured image;
- and
- a control section that generates print data corresponding to the specified print target and causes the printing device to perform printing on the print target based on the print data,
- the control section estimating an actual size of the print target based on an object distance between the print target and the image capturing sensor and a size of the print target in a captured image group, generating the print data by modifying original print data associated with the print target based on the actual size of the print target, and causing the printing device to perform printing on the print target based on the print data.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a print control program causing a printing device to perform printing, the program causing a computer to realize:
- a specifying function of specifying, as a print target, an area of a captured image captured by an image capturing sensor based on both the captured image and an object distance of each pixel of the captured image, the specifying function specifying the area of the captured image by repeatedly detecting adjacent pixels of the captured image that are continuous relative to each other and have colors in a predetermined range of colors and object distance in another predetermined range of the object distance;
- and
- a control function of generating print data corresponding to the specified print target and causing the printing device to perform printing on the print target based on the print data.
A printed matter production method of producing a printed matter by a printing device, the method comprising:
- a specifying step of specifying, as a print target, an area of a captured image captured by an image capturing sensor based on both the captured image and an object distance of each pixel of the captured image, the specifying step specifying the area of the captured image by repeatedly detecting adjacent pixels of the captured image that are continuous relative to each other and have colors in a predetermined range of colors and object distance in another predetermined range of the object distance;
- and
- a printing step of generating print data corresponding to the specified print target and forming the printed matter based on the print data by the printing device.
