Abstract
There are provided an image forming apparatus, a program, and a method to easily form a three-dimensional image at a reduced cost. Such an image forming apparatus includes an image obtaining section that obtains a source image, a region identifying section that identifies a region, in the source image, that is to be subjected to sharpness enhancement, and an image forming section that forms an image whose region corresponding to the region identified by the region identifying section is raised. Being saved from the process of measuring the distances to the subjects, the image forming apparatus can be constituted without a distance measuring sensor and the like, thereby reducing the cost. Furthermore, the image forming apparatus can easily form a three-dimensional image.
Claims13
An image forming apparatus comprising:
- an image obtaining section that obtains a source image;
- a region identifying section that identifies a region, in the source image, that is to be subjected to sharpness enhancement;
- and
- an image forming section that forms an image whose region corresponding to the region identified by the region identifying section is raised.
A computer readable medium storing thereon a program which when executed causes a computer to function as:
- an image obtaining section that obtains a source image;
- a region identifying section that identifies a region, in the source image, that is to be subjected to sharpness enhancement;
- and
- an image forming section that forms an image whose region corresponding to the region identified by the region identifying section is raised.
A method of outputting an image from a computer, comprising:
- obtaining a source image;
- identifying, in the source image, a region to be subjected to sharpness enhancement;
- and
- forming the image whose region corresponding to the identified region is raised.
