Abstract
An apparatus includes: a memory storing one or more instructions; and a processor configured to execute the one or more instructions to: obtain a first image captured by a camera; detect one or more head patterns in the first image; identify a first head pattern, among the one or more head patterns, as a head pattern of a subject closest to the camera based on a size of the first head pattern; obtain a second image based on the identified first head pattern; and display the second image.
Claims5
An apparatus comprising:
- a memory storing one or more instructions;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the one or more instructions to:
- obtain a first image captured by a camera;
- detect head regions in the first image;
- identify a first head region, among the head regions, as a head region of a subject closest to the camera based on a size of the first head region;
- obtain a second image based on the identified first head region;
- and
- display the second image,
- wherein the processor is configured to obtain the second image by:
- prior to receiving consent from the subject, obtaining, as the second image, an image in which all of the head regions in the first image are covered or blurred;
- determining that the subject has provided consent for a facial recognition when the subject is associated with the head region closest to the camera and is looking at the camera;
- and
- after receiving the consent from the subject, obtaining, as the second image, an image in which all of the head regions other than the first head region in the first image are covered or blurred.

A method comprising:
- obtaining, by a processor, a first image captured by a camera;
- detecting, by the processor, head regions in the first image;
- identifying, by the processor, a first head region, among the head regions, as a head region of a subject closest to the camera based on a size of the first head region;
- obtaining, by the processor, a second image based on the identified first head region;
- and
- displaying, by the processor, the second image,
- wherein obtaining the second image comprises:
- prior to receiving consent from the subject, obtaining, as the second image, an image in which all of the head regions in the first image are covered or blurred;
- determining that the subject has provided consent for a facial recognition when the subject is associated with the head region closest to the camera and is looking at the camera;
- and
- after receiving the consent from the subject, obtaining, as the second image, an image in which all of the head regions other than the first head region in the first image are covered or blurred.

A non-transitory storage medium storing a program that when executable by a computer causes the computer to execute:
- obtaining a first image captured by a camera;
- detecting head regions in the first image;
- identifying a first head region, among the head regions, as a head region of a subject closest to the camera based on a size of the first head region;
- obtaining a second image based on the identified first head region;
- and
- displaying the second image,
- wherein obtaining the second image comprises:
- prior to receiving consent from the subject, obtaining, as the second image, an image in which all of the head regions in the first image are covered or blurred;
- determining that the subject has provided consent for a facial recognition when the subject is associated with the head region closest to the camera and is looking at the camera;
- and
- after receiving the consent from the subject, obtaining, as the second image, an image in which all of the head regions other than the first head region in the first image are covered or blurred.
